Rock-ola Manufacturing Corporation manufactured jukeboxes in the U.S. under the name of the Rock-ola.

He passed away in the 1990s.  In 1992 Antique Apparatus bought the company and relocated the factory to California from its home in Chicago. Your personal blast from the past. Priced at $8,500.

FSBO CASH CONVERSIONS
Exchange Owners, Brokers. Using your alternate currency as leverage to accumulate cash is always a priority. Well, here are a couple of ways to make it work. Our For Sale By Owner (FSBO) websites need advertisers to list businesses, residences, farmlands, resorts, franchises, whatever. For 100% Trade, an advertisement, complete with pages of information and photos, can be posted until it sells on a leading International For Sale By Owner website. Conversion (Listing) Certificates at 100% Trade gets the advertisement onto the website. This opens the doors to resales, Joint Ventures or simply generous conversions with you as the beneficiary. If you list / post the advertising yourself, thanks to our Conversion (Listing) Certificate you become the Agent of Record; you earn cash from success in advertising. Once one of your listing or that of an associate sells, an advertising cash payout of anywhere from $500 to $3,000 could come your way. Actually you could receive up to 50% of the deferred advertising charge. At times the cash payout can occur when the advertisement is posted.
Valuation Statements: These Conversion Certificates provide Valuation Statements for business sellers, buyers, insurance, loans, divorces, tax needs. Most business valuations, it seems, do not understand the value of human capital or the true value of a business, especially a small business. This Valuation will take into consideration much more than just tax numbers and will be a lot less expensive than any valuation you might get elsewhere. Unless it is complex you will receive the report for a very economical $1,000 (one thousand dollars) plus taxes. And a certificate to cover this is available to you at 100% Trade. These Listing & Valuation Certificates never expire and can be transferred or resold to anyone, anywhere subject to minor conditions. Our people can do all the paperwork. 95% of North America can be approached on these conversion opportunities so you can do it either AT work or simply FROM home. You find the FSBO / Valuation clients. You / we use Barter$$ to obtain certificates. On advertising (listings) you receive a negotiated cash advertising referral when it sells. It is passive income. These are cash conversion opportunities; ideal ways to put your Barter$$ to work.

GRAND CAYMAN
Morritts Timeshare. The Cayman Islands are one of the worlds most popular dive destinations. Indeed, it is the diving, the snorkeling and the crystal clear Caribbean waters that entice so many guests to become Morritts Tortuga Club owners. Enjoy a pristine beach on the quiet, exclusive side of Grand Cayman in your vacation timeshare. 2 bed, 2 bath unit. Float (1-50) week. Annual. Red weeks with RCI trading. $7500 Trade.

VOLUME TRADERS
Wholesale / Factory Direct. A large number of Eastern Canada-corporations use barter to move inventory that has either lost value or no longer suits their business plan; brands that have drifted off-strategy. This inventory generally has a wide variety of customers and consists of goods or services that many companies routinely buy. The Trade Broker for these Corporate Barter participants negotiates the best cash / trade scenario on behalf of a Buyer based on the 'best price' offered in any particular market. A Trade$$ component can be anywhere from 20% to 60% of that 'best price', which the Buyer negotiates locally in advance. In other words, the inventory is something you, the Buyer, already needs or will need in the forseeable future and it could be paid with some of your cash and possibly a lot of your goods or services. That is about as attractive a price as you are ever going to find for quality inventory you already use. Brand name fireplaces plus brand name mattresses, all shapes & sizes, are just a few examples. Depending upon size, brand & amount, as much as 60% of your mattress 'best price' could be trade. Minimum orders generally by the trailerload. FOB Ontario.

BUSINESS VALUATIONS
Agents Required. An international For Sale By Owner website that has been advertising real estate, business opportunities and the likes to North American clientele for more than 10 years, is looking to strengthen its presence in the U.S. market. And it is reaching out to the barter community as a means to attain that goal.  Other than traditional advertising, one of the key services offered by this Canadian-based FSBO website is a simplified business valuation process that quickly puts realistic values on what a person has for sale. The evaluation is precise enough that with a brief verification of some of the numbers by the Seller’s accountant it can, if needed, be taken to a bank or lender as an acceptable financial document.
Ordinarily such evaluations cost anywhere from $5,000 to $15,000, depending upon the complexity of the item offered for sale. It can be pricey. How does $1,500 or less, 100%  trade, sound? That is the price tag on the evaluation process we are discussing. Eric Jordan, the Business Valuation guru and owner of this www.pin.ca website, needs Agents to take this marketing process to the next level. These Business Valuation Agents would be welcome from almost anywhere in the world but right now USA is the target.
Anyone can become a Pin.ca Business Valuation Agent. All it takes is the desire, an entrepreneurial spirit and the ability to find prospective clients. Once that is in place Eric Jordan provides a guiding hand to these Pin.ca Business Valuation Agents on the first 12 evaluations. Full support; proven, positive results. And all at 100% Trade. And, yes, Pin.ca Business Valuation Agents can also sell their services to cash clients. Check it out. It can be worth the effort, the price is right and, at times, it becomes a cash conversion.

BARTER$$ BIZOPS  
The Pumper Vend. Cash conversion vending. Turn Barter$$ into cash and create a business, all with one swipe of your barter card. In a few cases, no upfront cash required to purchase the vending tools to make it happen. TradePlus Markets has pre-purchased a few charity-designated classic Antique Gas Pump vending machines. The PUMPER vending machine retails for $625 per unit. This test-market special is offered to the barter community at a per-unit price of $300 Trade plus $325 cash, a portion of which can be financed. This special is based on the minimum purchase of a 10-machine vending route, putting the total price at a $3,000 Trade deposit plus $3,250 cash, payable in easy monthly terms. These eye-catching PUMPERs stand just over 5 feet or 7 feet tall. The highly visible globe atop the pump is a great marketing tool (billboard) and the perfect partner for charities such as Children's Miracle Network and breast cancer. One of the charity-based benefits is that the operator often keeps 100% of the cash box. On average, a purchaser should be in a position to pay down the cash, realize a 100% cash conversion on the Barter$$ and own a fully-paid 10-machine BizOp in less than 24 months.
The Pumper Artifact. Remove the vending components and the Antique Gas PUMPER becomes a themed billboard for organizations, sports teams, special events, whatever. Primary colors of choice plus personalized decals, logos, advertisements. PUMPER examples of themed artifacts include pro hockey special events; national TV shows, college football, professional football; even direct business marketing. Most of the artifact applications can offer the vending option as well. Vend or artifact photo examples available upon request
U-Build. U-Save. Assemble your own Billboard PUMPER and put the savings in your pocket. Assemble the units for personal use as an investor / operator or sell finished products & routes as a BizOp. One pallet contains all the plastic, parts and instructions to assemble 6 units. The cost is $2,295 per pallet, which breaks down into $395 per assembled unit. FOB Arizona or Saskatchewan, Canada. As an option you can request one completed unit as a template on your first pallet.

Your For Sale advertisements can cover such items as businesses, residences, franchising, real estate, farmlands, resorts, BizOps. The Price Is Right to get started: No Cash! All Trade! The only cash you might pay (as little as half) won’t happen until after your advertisements, wherever they might be, have been successful.
