Automatic Washer - The world's coolest Washing Machines, Dryers and Dishwashers

Why the two different prices, $999 and $1250? If you could see the inside of these, you would be surprised at how small the interiors are with the thick insulation. The seller seems very convinced of their value. Removing and transporting them would probably kill them and don't plan on them being frost free either. There was no frost free in 1956.

Revco fridge

About 5 years ago I bought a Coppertone set and a Stainless set of Revcos. The Coppertone set worked when the folks we bought it from removed it from their kitchen and the stainless set we weren’t sure about since it came from a disassembled eBay kitchen. Neither set cooled after we moved them, the stainless set was completely DOA. We had an old repairman look at them as he used to repair them years ago, but he said they don’t make parts for them anymore and that trying to redo them with newer parts would make them extremely expensive. Both sets ended up in a dumpster. Speaking from experience, I personally would pass them up, you may end up with Expensive paperweights like I did.
 
Unfortunately that happens with many appliances that are better than 50 years old. I believe the stupid picker and repurposing shows have glamorized these old appliances and the only upside is that some of these old appliances are being posted for sale instead of all of them going straight to the dump. Even though there are some ridiculous asking prices it comes down eventually when no one inquires. It’s not commonly understood that when you come across a vintage appliance, even though “it works great” per the ad, it will need some major restoration mechanically if it is going to be used daily. Although Ebay has made NOS parts available, many are not.
