From all reports he is supposed to be a real nice guy but as you say his prices are high.
I was talking with somebody who bought a Coke machine off him and he said he listed the stuff on ePAY as it was a cheap way to advertise.
He keeps listing Coke and Pepsi Vendo machines from the 1950 - 60 era that I would dearly love to buy but they are also listed at double the price of what they are really worth
