[QUOTE="Kronos, post: 298606, member: 81"]Not sure the machine itself matters much, since you only have a front panel that was made by a different company. I think it would appeal more to anyone who recognizes the chocolate brand. As it stands as a decorative item, it lacks fancy graphics and is just two colors with text. I guess what you could do is look at comparable candy machines of the era, what they go for, and work a percentage off of that.
