pjnielsen Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 Hi, I was wondering if anyone is charging .75 for tattoo and stickers and how they are doing? I did 1 machine in a Convenience store and is doing ok. I know stickers haven't gone up much in price lately(unlike toys and gum/candy) but the shipping keeps going up. I have alot of competition and it is hard to put them up to .75. Also what tatoo/stickers are big sellers for you. Thank you, PJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toad Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Fifty cents works, less than 20 perc prob cost, dont be greedy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
musser Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 I have to agree on that one, fifty cents work well for me. I know there are those at 75 but flat items are pretty cheap to buy. For the past couple of years it seems that the tats I get from flatline have been the biggest sellers. May not be true got everyone but it is for me. Sugar tattoos The uice series have done very well , pink and black also have been good.

hanihotdog Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 I can't seem to get anyone to buy stickers/tattoos... we probably have 60 machines sitting in our warehouse because they don't make money anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PerformaVending Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 I started running stickers in 2 column machines, but even the most premium stickers and tattoos didn't move nearly as well as the 2" did at 50 cents, and I finally phased out all my stickers and flat machines. I don't know what the "secret" of flat is I guess, as I've never been able to make even the best sports work with flat the way others have.

BouncyBalls Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 My Flat moves better than 2". if you put Grumpy Cat in your machines and it doesn't disappear then you should quit flat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been trying to phase out 2" because of slow sales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toad Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Tattoos seem to sell better than stickers, u might focus on that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hanihotdog Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 That's about the only thing that moves for us! The only time will actually keep a sticker machine on location is it there's tons of room. Otherwise, it is a waste of space. Our bounce a roo machines quadruple their numbers with the same footprint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hanihotdog Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Haha! I bought just a few cases of NFL stickers from a global last year, put them in only a plus locations, and they are still in the machines! Football cards in the plastic sleeves used to do huge numbers for us about 6 years ago. We are talking three columns would blow out every couple weeks.

musser Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 That's crazy, NFL stickers are one of my biggest sellers, I get the helmet stickers, don't fool with the others. Different everywhere, funny too because when to comes to plush I always go 100% Halloween around Sept 1, empties cranes year after year, I used to get NFL plush but generic Halloween crushes it! The NFL plush moves but not like the holiday plush and that's clear through the seasons, Christmas, Valentine, Easter, go figure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
