I may be getting a jukebox

Well, I don't know what's going on with the owner. I had someone with a truck lined up to go look at it today; but, I've made several attempts to contact the owner and they won't return my call. I'm going to ask some of my flea market vendor friends to keep an eye open for something. Surely, if I look hard enough, I can find a restorable tube unit that won't break the bank.

You might try and see who the local vending/jukebox company is...they might have knowledge of where some old jukeboxes are or even have some stored away. We came across an old jukebox operator who had a barn full of machines which they sold for $150 each. Some of them were tube machines and we bought 2 of them. They did need some work of course but had all the components to them.

Also I got a Rockola console jukebox from a vending company auction several years ago. They had a whole warehouse full of jukeboxes and were selling some complete machines for $10 each. I would have got more but only had space to haul one.

You probably don't want to get one from an antique dealer/"re-seller" as they tend to charge a premium for them.
