adog Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 Just bought my first two machines. SO stoked to finally jump in and start my vending fleet. Well more like a small two man army right now but hopefully it will keep getting bigger. I bought to SEAGA TV3000 today for 90 bucks. Got them home and cleaned them up. The owner had these two sitting around, but has other ones in his route so he said he did't have spare keys. He had them unlocked, so the locks are fine but I need the keys. I need a sm 243 and sm 244. If you have any I will happily buy them from you. Or other locks with keys that fit the SEAGA. Anyways here are my two new machines. I cleaned them and polished em up! Once I get the key there going out on location! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fast Track Amusements Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 eBay more than likely has the keys. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treadmill Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 Why don't you just buy new locks and keys then you will be of the old owner having any access to your machines? They don't cost very much and then you will have peace of mind knowing they are your locks and not his. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adog Posted March 17, 2013 Author Share Posted March 17, 2013 Yeah I just bought two new sets of locks and keys. They should be here in a week so I am pretty excited to get these things running. I bought Peanut M&M's, Skittles, and Mike and Ike's for these two machines. I started off thinking about buying two new double heads from bubble gum.com but were to much that my ROI would have taken forever. I went on ebay and found some vendstars 3000 but after reading a week of the forums I decided not to get those. It ended up working out because I picked up two Seaga TV3000's for 45 a piece. I did have to clean em up abit but they did clean up for the most part. And bought two new lock sets for 15 a piece. Putting each machine at 60 a piece.

newheart53 Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 Welcome aboard and Good luck getting them out. As your starting out My advice would be to use anything cheap to get on location and making money. If all goes well and you like the business you can invest in better machine and change out the older ones. You will most always get your money back on used stuff as long as you don'tpay too much..

adog Posted March 17, 2013 Author Share Posted March 17, 2013 Thanks and I appreciate the advice. I just bought the last of my machines until I place them. I bought a three head Oak Vista with a stand. A double Oak Vista head on stand. And a Eagle Single with no stand for 160 bucks. I do have to buy two locks and a chute door but that's it. I now have five machines which once I receive the replacement parts I am going go and get them located. I know it takes patience which I have so I am excited. By the way do you think that was a good deal on all my machines so far? I have read good things about both of them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reel Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Those type of machines pictured can easily be broken into and i think from memory theres no internal canisters as its metal on 3 sides making it a pain to clean!. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
