Some manufacturers have also added features like a remote control, shuffle system and Bluetooth connectivity- you read that correct.

      5. Make Money

This sounds interesting, isn’t it? If you are looking to invest in vintage jukeboxes and thinking to make money out of it, you are planning no wrong. The vintage lovers are spending a considerable amount on buying a jukebox. The older the precious is how the business works. The oldest models of jukeboxes are selling at a price of five figures (Pound) in UK, I repeat 5 figures sum it is! On the other hand; the newer, the cheaper i.e. the latest versions can be seen being sold at as cheap as £500. The vintage market sells the oldest numbers in big figures and the prices are always seen appreciating and reason being the availability of very few original models, which are the nerves of vintage market.
