GagesVending Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Hi guys! Without having to buy like an entire pallet of product, where can I find quality 1" product, but still paying around 10 cents each so I can sell them for 25 cents?

musser Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Cardinal Dist, A&A, Actionmatic, Allstar, Flatline, Impulse Amusement, there are some others but it seems as if these few have good freight rates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smiley Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 You don't want to sell anything for 25 that costs you 10. Not enough margin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your paying way to much. You should be between 7 to 10 cent and closer to .07 on most of it. You want to be below 20% Sent from my Desire HD using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulkdude Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 I would love to buy for around that price. Where can I find prices like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havending Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 You should be getting one inch for around 17 to 19 a bag and 13 to 14 for stickys. Do not fall into the supplier trap of them telling you that this one inch is 32 a bag and its a .50 vend. There is plenty of great product slated for a .25 vend that sells for.50.

Jax Snacks Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 How much should someone pay for 2" when selling at .50 Under $30 per case IMO. A few decent choices... Sticky Hands - $28 Mustaches - $25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GagesVending Posted January 6, 2013 Author Share Posted January 6, 2013 So I've seen that sticky hands have sold well for you guys...what about bouncy balls? They're cheap, so I could sell them for 1 quarter. What other 1" items have sold well for you? This will be an Oak double head with 25 cent mechs in a Chinese restaurant.

If your only buying small quanities stay away from bounce balls because of the shipping weight. 1" mustaches, lock stock and barrel / cuffs 'n stuff from cardinal is always a hit and has been solid for years. mini aliens in 1" are doing well. Acrylic rings do well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What other 1" items have sold well for you? This will be an Oak double head with 25 cent mechs in a Chinese restaurant. Don't pass on the hard plastic toys like Dice, and Fun Time Mix. These items can and do sell well over the long term. And they are cheap too. COG is down around .05. If your only buying small quanities stay away from bounce balls because of the shipping weight. 1" mustaches, lock stock and barrel / cuffs 'n stuff from cardinal is always a hit and has been solid for years. mini aliens in 1" are doing well. Acrylic rings do well. The mixes always do well for me too. In fact they are my best sellers in 1" and 2". I like them because I can salt them with my own stuff to further lower the COG. The Lock Stock And Barrel has done extremely well, even when adding my own "junk" to it. The display is awesome. I get .50 out of the acrylic rings. I like the Cardinal mix and displays. I do however sell the Shine Design from A&A for .25. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GagesVending Posted January 7, 2013 Author Share Posted January 7, 2013 So I placed an order with Flatline today. I spoke with Mike. I purchased 1000 1" Laser Tattoos (in capsules) and 1000 1" Sticky Jungle mix. I really appreciate the support guys, I wouldn't have found them without the responses! The total with shipping and some displays was $141.50. That makes my cost about 7 cents! I'm very happy with that, as long as they sell well. I will be adding these to my charity stops. I'm going to try the tattoos in one of the Chinese restaurants in a TPico single head for 50 cent vend. It'll sit next to my 1800. I'll try some of your other product ideas eventually, I just need to get started and Flatline only had a small variety. Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
