Go ahead guys, I am out! I do not want to start bidding against everyone here. Not sure of the reserve, but good luck to everyone!

I'm not sure why some people would be offended if the seller would not tell them what the reserve is....

I am not in the bidding so it doesn't make a difference to me but I don't understand why people wont tell what the reserve is. What is the point? I am not angry I am really wanting to know why it is.

I don't care what the reserve is, just do not want to bid against other guys here on the site that might want it more than I do. I don't feel like driving the bidding up, if it does not have to be. Everyone is tight right now, so just would like to see someone from this site get it.

I was thinking about bidding, but I am totally unfamilar with what the approximate value is of a machine of this type and condition.  Would have to have it shipped to Oregon, which might make it not worth it.  I see prices all over the map on these.  I like the good original vs. restored.  If anyone could give me a price range for the stoner junior, stoner 180 theater, and the one with the gum as this, I would appreciated it.  I know it is worth whatever someone is willing to pay, but a range of prices for my own information would be great.  Thanks, Bob

I must admit I don't understand why people don't reveal their reserve... At the end of the day if the reserve is not met the item doesn't sell... Ebay does the bidding for the potential buyer in stages. If you throw $2000 at it it will only go to $2000 if the previous bidder had bid $1990 or you manage to hit the reserve.

The costs incurred in putting a reserve on make it very expensive. Better to just start the bid at your absolute minimum..The arguemnt about drumming up interest doesn't really hold water with items like this... This is a specialist piece. The high bidder knows what it is and will bid the most he can afford...

Just my humble two old english pennies worth....

I'm also with Brian - Never bid against another member....
