First time to this site and looking for some advise/value of a USS-8-64 I'm thinking about purchasing. Machine appears to be in good shape. All comments welcome and thanks for your input!

How about providing a little info for us to go on...
What condition cosmetically would you say the machine is in...? 1 -10
Is the machine complete and functioning properly?
What is the seller asking for the machine?

Thanks for responding Jim. I'd say it is about a 7 or 8 and the machine is complete and in good working order. He wants $500. Again, this is the first time I've ventured into buying a coke vending machine so if you have any tips on what questions to ask the seller, etc., I'd appreciate it.

Personally, I think $500 is a little high for a machine in average condition (7), but that's me... Have you checked to be sure everything works and that everything is there including all the shelves...? Does the marquee on the front appear to be in good condition with no cracks?
If the siduation is negotiable, offer $400 and go from there...

Thanks! All the shelves are present, he states it was "serviced" in 1996. What exactly he means by serviced, I'm not sure and I'll ask. Very little rusting inside the unit, the marquee is in very good/excellent condition and there are only a few minor paint scratches on the unit. It keeps the drinks good and cold so I thought that was good. Everything else works and he states he can show me how to set the machine to operate without inserting coins.
Thanks for your advise!
