antoniocinisi Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Quote guys plz use your better judgement when placeing an order I may be a noob in vending with a year of experiance but I have been in the restaraunt business for half of my life and know everything there is to know about good customer service I certainly didnt get it none of the times I ordered thru king Antonio I hear you Antonio, been in the business for more than half of my life. People still feel the have a need and the right to complain about anything and everything. Too bad they would'nt do that someplace else. Are you seeing a 300% flour increase too? Grumpy going way off topic:my flour prices are up about 250%,the real killer is cheese up anywhere from a buck to 75 cents more then a year ago depending on the market.wheat features are going down a bit and my rep is adament that wheat will be low again soon. we shall see,in the mean time when in july minimum wage goes up again I will have to raise prices about a dollar.most people dont know that when minimum wage goes up so do the taxes we have to pay.

West Coast Vend LLC Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Hey Antonio, I was just letting everyone know that they have them. You don't have to buy from them. In fact, if you don't there will be more there for me. I was just trying to share with others. And, no I don't get commission from them. They are not the only one I buy toy capsules from.

caserri Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 First NEW HOT PRODUCT FOR 2ND QUARTER! 2" Caps Adopt a Puppy from A&A I run these puppies in one of my racks. I will let you know how they do in about a week when I service. Steve **EDIT - I take that back, I just downloaded my route sheets and realized It's due for service today. I will let you know this evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caserri Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 O, and you have to buy a .75 machine for Finger Lights. That costs more, and when finger lights bomb out, you will have to find anther .75 product that will sell. Also Kyle, A&A sells a finger light/glowstick mix. Its a 75/25 mix that reduces the cost so you can vend them at .50. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West Coast Vend LLC Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 Thank you Kyle for the list of top sellers for Q-2. I like the way you listed each of them and included a picture. I do a lot of toys but have not tried the sticky items. I will on my next order. You are right about the Califorina Gold, they are selling fast! I also do very well with this item from TJ King. I have them in DQ and they are going fast! Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ginger vend Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Thanks Gary and Pusherman for answering my charity/commission/locators ?'s. Glad to see charity stops are an option (since I am familiar with these and not commission) Thanks Kyle for all the pics of hot items. I am going to see how some charity locations go to start with. GO TOYS!!!:cool: Ginger Vend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

West Coast Vend LLC Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 Antonio, I have never tried the adopt a puppy capsules. I am doing really good with toys in general. It sounds like you really like it too. What size capsules do you have? Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary gary:I meant to say steve since it was him that tried the puppies.I already ordered 3 bags regardless of how they did with steve. it seems that every distributor is pushing some kind of puppy/dog product,so if they aren`t popular yet they soon will be because thats what they`re pushing imo. I only have 1.1 in caps and 2,if thats what you meant by that gary!!?? I might buy a 75 cent coin mech for my racks,in the future but for now everything is 25-50 cents. for now the plan is to recoup some money .

caserri Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 Antonio, I'm not having too much luck with the puppies. I pulled in about $15 for 30 days. I thought they would do well because all the Folz racks in my area have them but so far a bust! Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powertechvending22 Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 Im looking to expand my toy game i have 2 ideas i want to try a 1.1 inch puzzle cubes has anyone tried these from A&A. The location is a waiting room for car repairs at a decent size dealer ship. I also have a chineese take out place that might work well with them to. My 2nd idea is would the 1.1 inch toys vent out of an xyz single head machine with a gumball wheel. also the people uesing the puzzle balls how do they work and are they better then the cubes heres a link to the cubes http://www.aaglobalind.com/bulk-vending/bulk-vending-toys/1-1-inch-capsuled-toys/MINRCV-mini-puzzle-cube-mix-bulk-vending.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smiley Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 Puzzle cubes are a winner. FYI it is a mix of ~15 cubes out of 250 caps. Puzzle Balls are meh. Monkeys are good. Blockheads are good in certain white neighborhoods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is so much going on here that things tend to get forgotten. I need to stop trying to read EVERY post as I have in the past. It's just too overwhelming and I'm missing the good stuff.

I was very relieved when I saw that machine so low on puppies .I wont keep as much as the same stock anymore ecspcially with so few machines.
