Venture20 Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 Hi, I looking to purchase over 20 triple head machines with locations for $500. I was looking to put in small gum balls, peanut m&m, and runts. Would toys be better instead of runts? Could anyone help me with links or sites where I should buy the candy/toys? Any advice would be appreciated.

Make sure that the income the machines are making is verifiable. Candy is generally best bought in stores like Sam's Club, BJ's (East Coast) and Smart and Final (West Coast).

QuikVend Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 Also, you'll need gumball wheels in order to vend gumballs. They can be pretty pricey and sometimes hard to find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
musser Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 I take it that these machines are not in location? If they are on location what is in them and how much money are they making? Just go forward with what's in them to see how it sells. At $25 each it would be hard to lose on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venture20 Posted May 16, 2016 Author Share Posted May 16, 2016 I can still vend gum balls without the wheel, small gum balls still work well. The 20 machines all have locations that are commission free. Do you guys all have insurance on your machines? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other times it's more for my peace of mind. For candy machines it's not too big of a risk, so it really comes down to how you want to operate your route.

Itz me Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Vendstar 3000 I have an issue, I bought a few new machines with the keys to the back lost. Does anyone know how to get in the change door without tearing the machine up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are kits that open tubular locks, but I've never tried it on Vendstar locks myself. Otherwise, short of drilling the lock out, not that I know of.

Zigzag Vending Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 Look up snack attack vending. Drill out your door around the lock and send it to him. He will code it and get ya a key and a new back door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
