Hello everyone, Could you give me an idea for price for a Wurlie 2100,full restorate, in USA? Just to know if the madness of price is a European madness. Thanks to all.

Hi Cedric, I think that you are asking a question that can not be answered- To restore a 60 year old juke box depends on many factors. First of which, is the definition of the word "restore". ( Read the Off topic "scams" post). Second, would be the "starting condition", today of the juke. Third, Parts availability-- Just can't put a figure on it today-- Ron Rich

Hi Ron, Yes not easy, I understand. Here, Wurlie 2000 and 2100 are verry verry expansive. If I look those sell by shop (not always the best restoration, but they look "WAW") price is about 25000 USD and sometimes more.
It's crazy cause when you compare with, for example a V200, sell in the same shop, same "WAW" conditions, it's above 14000 USD. AMI Conti 2 200, 15000USD. So, why Wurlie so high... Sometimes I ask to myself if it's not an European effect. Have a nice day, Cédric.

Hi Cedric, I am not a "collector" of jukeboxes. I came to this "hobby", from the commercial side. I worked for a Seeburg Distributor, and the Seeburg factory, for years fixing them. I did the mechanical and electrical rebuilding--never any cabinet work. In my opinion, unless I know of a problem with a specific model, clean/original cabinet-they are all worth about the same amount to me. Ron Rich

Hi Ron, Yes, it's what I think too! So, it's just speculation for Wurlie, no other reason. Offer and demand. Thanks Ron. Cédric.
