AboutRodger Knutson Expertise I am an expert on old coin operated machines, slot machines, trade stimulator's, jukeboxes, old arcade machines, etc. I have been identifying these for people who respond to my web site listed below, for a few years now. In almost all cases I am able to tell them about their old coin operated machines, the year, the value, and other general information about their machines. I do not know much about soda vending machines, coin banks, or scales, but I will try to help you with these if I can.

Experience I bought my first slot machine, a .50 Cent Mills Black Cherry in 1969 and have been hooked from that time, I still have that Slot machine! Before that I found a open barrel full of old scraped jukebox wall boxes behind a restaurant, I wanted them all but never took a one of them. Anything that took a coin drove me nuts!
I have an old Vendorlator Inc Pepsi machine, model number vf-165. Just wondering if it is worth anything at all? It is not in great shape, but I am sure it is all probably original. Thanks for your time!

Answer Hi Todd,
This machine is to new to be listed in any of the collector books I have, so can't really tell you anything about it. The collector machines have round corners and this is the newer square machine. I had one real close to yours once and dropped it off at an auction house. It surprised me, as I think I got 360.00 or 400.00 for it. Sorry I don't know anything else about it that might help you.
Cheers
