Not sure where to start on price so I'm going with $250 OBO for now until I can find more info about it...when I have time. It might be worth more or maybe less??? I got this as payment from a client awhile back. We had planned on setting it up but never got around to it.

It's in great condition but it needs keys to lock it and unlock the top. The top is a "star" key. It also comes with a ton of gumballs.

You can tell my son was a little excited about it...lol

Here's one: (but this one looks bigger and over priced)

This one is about the right size but newer model and different style: (more appropriately priced in my opinion)

LOL I used to work at Joe's Crabshack and people would always steal these from the restaraunt. We never caught them either. Too funny. Good luck to you Rob

I have no idea lol. If we knew, we would have caught them hahaha :) They are pretty easy to roll and with all of the comotion in the restaraunt it just seems to havve walked out. I was there for 1.5 years and it happened twice.

I guess if you're the manager rolling it out it wouldn't be too hard, j/k

BUMP.

Originally I did not have the faceplate and quarter wheel turn mechanism. I found them and they are now included. Still no keys but it works without the keys anyways. Still need a "star" key to open the top though.

Dropping price from $250 to $225. It's clean and sitting in my garage with a sheet over it. Gumballs are inside.

HAHA! Don't forget my discount dude! Buy one get one free!

Should pay off in about 800 weeks...or just have some monthly MAAST meetings at your house and tell everyone it's a reef presentation for kids. Just put the gumball machine near the "kids only" seating area.
