Shadaw Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 I'm curious if anyone has placed fortune tellers like Zoltar out on a route? If so where? I know its a bit random just trying to get ideas where high traffic areas would be to place machines like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billnuts Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 I have always wanted a zoltar But at $6000 for the deluxe models Even at $1.00 vend it would take 12,500 customers to break even 50% commission and price of refill cards $500.00 it would take some time to get money back but the good side is you never see one used for sale and if you do they seem to hold their value so... its a win if you have a high traffic location like a mall or tourist stop bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadaw Posted December 9, 2013 Author Share Posted December 9, 2013 By the time you add shipping and a dollar bill acceptor which lets face it your probably going to need to begin to make your money back at a relatively fast pace your looking at closer to 7000.00 - 7200.00 which at a dollar a play with a 50% commission to the building owner that would be 14,000 - 14,400 plays before it payed itself off but that's not counting the fact you'd have to re-order cards at 50.00 for a pack of 500 cards 14,000 {plays} / 500 {number per refill pack} = 28 X 50.00 = $1,200 out of pocket to refill the machine Taking into account the 2,000 ""free"" cards So far its 7,000 + 1,200 = 8,200 before you see any profit. Breaking it down further that would be 16,400 plays I'm not talking anyone into or out of this I'm kinda posting this for my own reference and to see if my math is correct.
