The pictures have two different (and colors) detergent dispensers???

The front of the machine and the first pic of the inside are probably correct. I'm not sure why the other pics are there showing the rack defects, they are from a 16 series machine, probably a Custom.

The White detergent dispenser looks like it's from a 15 series.

The "Flat" top rack is either from a Custom 15 series or could be a Regency or Deluxe Portable.

I have that same top rack in my Regency and I must say I prefer that rack to the traditional ones. With the tilting feature, you can really get more in the "Flat Style" top rack

All that being said, I'm not sure I'd want to buy from this particular vendor.

They could have got the pics mixed up.

 

I wouldn't think the 17 and 15 series detergent cups would be mechanically and/or electrically interchangeable.

 

And I don't think (not sure) but the racks also would not be interchangeable.

 

But I will say, I have looked at those same machines on fleapay for a couple of years.  I'm real "Ehhhhh...." about those machines.  They could be great, but I think they have been sitting on those for a long time.

 

Nick... Didn't you look at those a while back ?

I've bought parts from this vendor a few times. He's always been very reliable and honest about what he's selling.

However, Eddie is right....they've been on his site for at least two years. If you're considering buying one these you should you definitely contact him first. I believe he'll give you an honest appraisal of the machine's condition.

Good luck!
