Hello Everyone! I am a new owner of a Vending Machine! When I was a little fat kid I always dreamed of owning my own Pepsi Machine. Now that I'm a big fat man haha with my own income and property I decided one night it was time to achieve that dream. I looked on Facebook market place and low and behold I found a vending machine just like the one near my house when I was a kid! For only 225$ so I pulled the trigger and my back loading it into my truck the next day and took it home. Today she is on my porch humming away cooling herself down. I placed some Ice Tea in the Brisk slot but Ill be honest I got no idea what I'm doing haha. I'm hoping to learn from you all and get her fully working for me and my friends to enjoy. She is Dixie Narco Model 440mc/252-8 and shes all mine :)

Hi, my name is Itrula. I'm new to vending. Found your forum while searching for info on DN 501e. I have 5 machines in Jamaica 🇯🇲 and would like to expand. Can anyone help in providing info on persons or companies that program coin mechanism and bill validators to accept different currency. Preferably with a quick turn around time.

Sorry everyone , I’m very new and just picked up my first vending machine. It’s been sitting in a garage for almost 3 years without being touched. What are some things I should check? It’s turns on, and has cooled down very well. I’m trying to go through the menus, but I can’t find the selector switch anywhere! 🤦♂️ I wanna set it up for free use. I guess first and foremost I wanna see if it actually vends. I believe the title is the brand and model number, serial number is 0232 6256ct . I can send pictures or anything to help you know what machine I have. I’ve googled and googled, but can’t find to much for this exact machine (probably just doing it wrong). Thanks in advance. Sorry for the dumb rookie questions, but any help would be much appreciated.

Hello, newbie here who is planning on purchasing and donating a bottle vending machine for my local church. I have a budget in mind of $1,500 and want to buy a good, dependable machine. Based on the popular opinion here, it seems Dixie Narcos are the way to go - I can purchase an older refurbished model. A bevmax 4 is nice, and I’m wondering if it’s worth saving up for that instead. In either case - I thought I’d open up the discussion to the more experienced members of this great forum: How would you spend $1,500 today if you wanted a reliable and easy to operate machine?

Hello, I've bought a used (well used, Ive found a sticker dated 1995 inside the machine) drink vending machine on a whim and it mostly seem to work, but some of the slots doesn't vend. I've figured out that it seems the "arms" of the slot are in the wrong positions (the two slots to the left on the image). How do I reposition the arms so I can fill those slots with cans?

Hello everyone, My name is Jackie and I am from Orange County, California. I’m doing research to start a vending business to make some extra money for my family. I would appreciate any advice or recommendations. I started my research looking at healthy vending. Companies such as healthy you, healthier 4u, instahealthy etc. but the more research I do it seems like I’m better off starting it on my own with used machines. Thank you in advance edit any tips and recommendations. Also wondering what kind of permits are required in California to start a vending machine business. Thank you
