Was told by the forum that "you can't receive messages":
*Feel free to message me though*
We had talked earlier. Can you please remind me of your number and your location?
I'm waiting on some things to play out in my other "career" but am getting very close to being ready for some machines. I presume you are somewhat/completely a machine expert?
When I'm ready I'll have some questions for you! I am growing curious about slave machines.... And am trying to FULLY/entirely understand MDB achines, though I think I'll only truly understand by doing... I.E. MDB conversions, etc.

That reply invokes so many questions...! Like for one, you are a 32-year expert... but have you found garage door repairs to be more profitable?
However, more importantly: Are you saying that once your machines are gone, they're gone for good and you won't be selling anymore?
I do not think I am big enough or have the means to buyout your machines. I don't have the knowledge either..... But I would love to talk...
Again, your post invokes another businessman's interest. Perhaps I could even help you liquidate - I help another company liquidate golf carts and I do alright!

The repair business has just died and there's not enough to support all the people in that field. After the depression (what the "great recession" really was) I stubbornly held out longer than I could afford to which put me in major debt. That along with the number of deadbeat vendors large and small, I couldn't stay busy enough in the new age of micro markets replaceing vending accounts. That and the reluctance for other vending companies to pay me a viable salary forced me to get a job in another field. I also didn't want to build a vending route up again and start that over either. The golden age of vending is long gone though I know it can still work for small vendors. Not all large accounts will go to micro markets but more and more of them are. You will eventually lose locations to someone doing micro markets so you need to be prepared to move in that direction within a couple of years or you won't survive unless you only concentrate on smaller locations, which all my machine would be perfect for.
