Rexlex Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 I need a machine that I can wheel in if a lone drink machine is going to be down for a few days in a big account. This is a small FSI I believe and probably has the serpentine delivery. I familiar with these as I bought four of the combo/satellite ones for cheap from another big account. I'm thinking of offering $300. Any thoughts? http://corvallis.craigslist.org/app/5064360760.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngryChris Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 Definitely serpentine, almost definitely a MAKA in it. $300 is that max value. Even at its narrow size, it weighs quite a bit. Yes, you could wheel it in but if the compressor goes out on it, you'll start questioning whether it was a good idea or not. I have one of these and I'm about to scrap it. The only part I want off of it is the refrigeration deck. The seal is old and bad. The motors are gunked up and bad. A lot of wires have corroded. I paid $300 for it cooling but I have gutted the thing to save some CB 300's. I wouldn't buy another. It's not worth fooling around with, especially if it's just a temporary thing. You're just asking for more leaks from your refer deck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A 276E has 7 selections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZVendor Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 That FSI/USI is not worth $500. The door looks dented, it's filthy and it still has a Maka boat anchor in it. I would try $250 and not go above $300 but you'll need to verify that it gets cold (thermostat should not be set above 2) and then plan on upgrading the validator. If you need a validator for it you can PM me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmorris1953 Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 I wouldn't buy one at all. Not reliable and expensive to repair. Find a D/N 276 you will be a lot happier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rexlex Posted July 17, 2015 Author Share Posted July 17, 2015 The problem is I don't have a truck that can carry the DN. I think I could load this on my trailer with a moving dolly. I have a combo FSI/USI like this in my garage. The one with a 12-snack machine and the satellite soda. If I bought this then I could use the satellite for parts if need be and still have the snack side for a 2nd location at a larger site. Here is a picture of what I have in case you are not familiar with them. http://snackattack.sharepoint.com/Pages/fsifawnusisnackparts.aspx Anyway, I might offer him $100 for it and go as high as $200. He is going to have a limited market of people wanting it, I assume only a business owner that wants to do his own vending. I'll let you know how it turns out.

AngryChris Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Just so you know, the old style cd-6 (what you're asking about) weigh more than the cb-300 (slaved unit in your picture). I have about 3 cb-300's and they are all pretty light but the cd-6 is definitely heavier. You'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
