Determined Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Yesterday I picked up a Seaga gumball machine w/stand for $30. It looks to have been used very little. Anyways I got it placed the same day in a local family restaurant that's always busy. It only took me 2 tries to get it located. I think it should do very well there. Pic is before it went on location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PerformaVending Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Nice looking little Millennium unit, and not a bad price for a starter machine. Keep an eye on that coin mechanism, as that's Seaga's "weakest link" when it came to bulk machines, at least in my opinion. If you ever check it and it seems really loose, or seems like you could "snap" it backwards, it's time to replace it. Good luck! Let us know how it does for you!

I was pleasantly surprised to find it for $30 15 minutes from my home and I was very surprised how easy it was to get into the restaurant! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GagesVending Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 At that price it'll pay for itself after the first refill more than likely. The machine itself is cheap, but the stand is worth $30 so you're good on the deal. Congrats on your new location! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Determined Posted February 23, 2016 Author Share Posted February 23, 2016 Let us know how it does as you move ahead. Nice work sir! Did my first pull from this machine over the weekend and got $26 for a month. Machine did fine. I plan on upgrading it to a double soon. I was thinking of adding bouncy balls or another variety of gumballs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mayhem4masses Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 Fantastic find! The machine paid for itself in 30 days. That's rare and great to hear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
