Real vending requires a commission to be paid to a location about 1/2 the time. Some vendors claim they never pay a commission. Honest vendors say they do. Bulk vending can be sold as a charity with proceeds (maybe) going to a charity. Or it can be no commission or something in between. Amusements are generally a 50/50 split with the location. All is between you and the location and whether you wish to pay or not. It's up to you. There. Are you happy now?

$200. It's also a giant, heavy machine and there is no need to have that in a location. Labels aren't easy to get either as they are proprietary to Coke.

This company will only tell you what you want to hear.

It's a scam so please don't buy from them.

You probably need to update the board eprom.

You have to buy a 30 lb cylinder of MP39. It was never sold in one pound cans. It also could be dropping by the wayside too.

They all have R134 to my knowledge. You can search the model of the compressor (on the side of it) and see what oil it's charged with to determine which gas is in it.

Yes. That is all I used unless I encountered R404 or R22 or any other odd freon. It's a blend that mixes well with the two different oils that R12 and R134 compressors use.

Most machines after the 80s have model numbers on their serial number plates. But you can just post a photo or two of the machine and serial number plate and we can tell you what it is. Keep in mind that a lot of older soda machines don't have serial number plates any longer as those are often removed when the bottlers sell off their old assets.

+1 on avoiding it. New vendors need to focus on simple machines.

Here is an example of the setup for wide and narrow E columns for 16.9 oz Coke bottles: https://rc.cranems.com/Uploads/2001-954-02.pdf

My first moving truck was a new '85 1/2 ton Chevy that handled everything I put in it though I rarely did 3 machines at that time due to the scary liftgate I had. I will admit I never went back to 1/2 tons after that though. From there I used a '93 Ford F250, a '03 Ram 2500, a '08 Ram 3500 and then a Chevy 2500. All worked very well and I still have the last Chevy with 258000 miles on it. I also got the largest platform gates I could buy at the time and remote power cables as well for one man operation.

You guys all need to get a pickup with a Tommy Gate on it.

That is a USI HR40 more than likely. It has a Snackmart 6 (SM6) logic board in it which is MDB capable and it had I-Vend (drop sensor) when it was new. That may or may not work now. It's generally a good machine. I'd give maybe $500 for it in it's nasty condition and knowing nothing more about it. Does he have a key for it?

@Vendo Mike to the rescue.
