PerformaVending Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 So, I went in as scheduled to check on my "problem" machine. It's a Vendstar 3000 I bought when I first got into vending, and didn't know any better. As it's reliability was in question, I "buried" it at what I consider a slow location. Well, since it's placement on December 7th 2011 it has pulled in (drum-roll)- 75 cents. It's running Skittles, Runts, and plain M&M's. 25 cents in Runts, 50 cents in Skittles. It's in a hair salon that has (generously) given me the floorspace for the foreseeable future. This is my worst pull as a business, but I'm glad it's from my crummy vendstar 3K rather than my better locations. Can anyone beat this? Otherwise I'm calling it a record! I wasn't sure if this was worth posting in the bulk section, which is why it's here in the hole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just like realty. Location-location-location. A good location can make you rich with a junk machine (my Ultravend pulls in about 20 a week with little variation) and a bad location can tank even a good machine. (My Routemaster pulled in about 5 bucks total for an entire summer last year). Don't let my bad pulls get you down bbeckl. Because for every junk spot there are hundreds of good ones- it's just a matter of finding them, and taking them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treadmill Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 and i was upset about our "virgin pull" @ little over $5 for a week in a double ! not very confidence inspiring that it can get THAT bad lol ! If you look at it that $5 for a week in a double head setup is not bad when the national avg. per head is $7 a month. In your situation that would be $14 avg. per month.
