isn`t she a beauty?I intend on buying 3-4 more a j stand 3 80`s and a sticker machine and build my first rack.as far as I can tell there is a super 60 but no regular 60,is this correct?

[antoniocinisi]

another question:can I put oak machines alongside northwestern machines on a northwestern stand?are the stands/machines of differant brands compatible  with each other?

[Smiley]

Most of the time they are compatible. At the worst you might have to drill 2 new holes in the base of the machine.

Way to go Anton!

[antoniocinisi]

thanks guys!!

is there a super 60 and a regular 60??

[vendamania]

Yes the regular 60 is a glass globe and the super 60 is the bigger plastic globe.

You bought the super 60. The 60 is a smaller, usually glass, globe on the same base.

[AmuseStar Vending Co]

Very nice! Very Nice! Love it. Your oaks, and NW will go on the same plate BTW.

[T BIRD]

Is there a couple of sized globes for the Series 60? The globe that I have for my two machines is a large capacity globe. ( at least it seems big to me )  Is there a smaller capacity on?

[antoniocinisi]

I won 3 more machines like this one!I`M on my way to makeing my first rack.any1 know where I can get some used super 80 and a sticker machine?

[T BIRD]

I want to ask this again for someone to answer please:  are there two sizes of globes for the NW Series 60 ?  A smaller one and a larger one? I have the large one it seems.  For Dentyne, its way too big. This is what I have:  Is there one smaller than the one in the photo?

[antoniocinisi]

T-BIRD :

is your globe glass or plastic?by looking I  think you have a super 60 as well.nice machine btw!

It's made of plastic Anton...........

[Smiley]

No. There is one size for the super 60. The smaller one is the 60. With it you will need a shorter rod, smaller cover and an additional piece that helps hold the globe in place.

[T BIRD]

Thanks for the feedback Smiley!  I appreciate it.  I am going to price the 60 series then today and see how much they want for one or 10 of them without a candy wheel.  I hope its reasonable.

[antoniocinisi]

how much are the coin mechs for a oak capsule machine?I found this on ebay:item number 120201048364.how much for a coin mech?is it worth buying and adding the coin mech?is this the average size for these machines?

thanks again guys

[T BIRD]

I called NW and priced a couple of machines. The Super 60 w/ cash and dash is $79.95.  Without cash and dash is $71. The smaller globe series 60 is actually a $1.50 more because of the extra part to hold the globe. If I buy 20 at a clip, the price goes down to about $67 each without cash and dash.

So I ordered 1 Series 60 with that smaller globe and without cash and dash. I will put the DI wheel in it with the NW riser and see if I like the set up. I am curious how easy it is to take quarters out of that set up. So if I go with it for Certs and DI, it's gonna cost between $165 and $180 for a stand and 2 Series 60 machines. There is no getting around paying more for a quality machine.

I spent about 2 hours with the 1.1 capsules and the DI for the blue A&A machines.  I guess I capped enough for 2-3 machines while watching TV.  I just do not see myself capping DI like this for 50 DI machines. It can make sense though as Steve from Superpro pointed out to have some of those on hand for the locations that may be very picky about cleanliness etc.  It is a very neat and clean looking vend........for sure.

[dkochan]

What is the "cash and dash" option on the Northwestern machine?

[T BIRD]

It's a coin tray that catches the quarters and is easily accessible by lifting the base up a little. There is a part of the back part of the base that will hold the machine there for you as you reach down and under to pull out the coin tray.  Makes things easier for sure IMO.

could someone plz explain to me the differance between a super 80 and a super 83?I would think it would be bigger but the price on tj king is lower for the 83.thanks

[Smiley]

The super 83 is a single piece machine. The 80 is superior in that you can give it 4 plexi sides which help sales and it operates more smoothly. Also if you ever need to change the front plexi it's a pain with the 83. Sometimes the fit  of the front piece on the 83 gets so snug it's tough to even change the product.

[antoniocinisi]

just to clear things up,if i want to use it in a rack would it matter if the sides are metal or clear?only the machines on the end would have an extra side showing anyways.thanks guys

[Smiley]

Sometimes it's helpful to have clear backs if the machines are visible from the back. And you could put the 83's in the middle and the 80's at the ends for just clear sides. This is a minor point though. My main point is the 80 is a better working machine.

[antoniocinisi]

for  about 40 extra bucks I guess it`s worth getting  an 80 then.THANKS FOR THE INFO!!!!!what caps and stickers are u running?
