Beer980 Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 Calling all flat vendors. What kind of mix are you using in your 4 column? Is it 2 stickers & 2 tattoo's, 3 & 1, 1 & 3? What about your 6 columns? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dkochan Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 I usually put either 3 tattoos and 1 sticker or 2 tattoos and 2 stickers in a four column machine. I do one column for teen boys, one for teen girls, one for boys and one for girls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lurtsman Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 I usually put either 3 tattoos and 1 sticker or 2 tattoos and 2 stickers in a four column machine. I do one column for teen boys, one for teen girls, one for boys and one for girls.Within that setup do you have a preference for wether the stickers are going to teens or younger?I love me some market segmentation analysis to increase sales.

West Coast Vend LLC Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 I only have 2 & 3 column machines. I usually go with 1 tattoo and 1 sticker on the 2 columns and what ever is most popular on the 3 column machines. I just put FrogTown huge stickers in my machines along with Peace & Love tattoos. They are both new items. I will have to wait to see how they both do. Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beer980 Posted February 15, 2009 Author Share Posted February 15, 2009 Yes I thought those FrogTown ones looked sharp and they are large for a sticker machine from what I see. I am considering those as one choice for my machine. I would like to find a good used 2 column to pick up and try to place it at a local skate park as it should go well with those in it.

Jax Snacks Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 How about Disney stuff? Anyone selling those? I may try them here in the heart of the mouse town on the next cycle. I see VSI has a special on the Mickey Mouse Club tats. Jax - Soon to be Mouse-A-Tear! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nepavend Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 I have an 8x column on location and a 6x column in progress. Until you get a handle on what the location demographics are, stick with the staples and at least 1 tattoo in a 4x and 2 in a 6x column. I started with UTC8 or UTC9 tattoo (forget which), Family Guy banners, Pet Shop #5 or #6, and a mix of Spiderman, Spongebob, and NFL helmets from when I bought the machine. After that I evaluated what sold best and ordered accordingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beer980 Posted February 16, 2009 Author Share Posted February 16, 2009 Jax I would think Disney would be an easy sell for you. You could get a good deal if you pick all the red deal items too. 5 cases for $75 and there is a bunch of Disney in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deee_z Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 just bought a 4X and have baseball and football cards in 2 heads, the others have a sticker and a tattoo. How much do the stickers and tattoos cost per? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beer980 Posted February 19, 2009 Author Share Posted February 19, 2009 I am just getting into this area so $25-$30 range plus shipping from what I have seen. You usually get 300 in a case but sometimes I have seen 250. Make sure they come in the folders or you will have to buy them seperate and put them together.

lurtsman Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 How many stickers can you fit in one side of the NW super80 sticker machine? The capsules usually come with significantly more than you could load into the machine at once, but I was wondering because stickers would be so much smaller.

nam Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 You could probably put a full box of 250 or 300 tattoos or stickers but I'd advise only putting in maybe a third or half of a box. You'll not sell out that many between service times and then if you pick up another flat vendor, you can put those extra ones in the new machine. nam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beer980 Posted February 23, 2009 Author Share Posted February 23, 2009 I am going to try one or two from these guys: http://www.winbigvending.com/ I was going to place 125 in each of my slots when I place it and go from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dkochan Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 When ordering stickers/tattoos I order two displays per box of 300 stickers/tattoos because I load each column of my sticker machines with 150 stickers/tattoos. I do this because: The columns of my sticker machines cannot hold 300 stickers/tattoos. It enables me to save money by ordering less of the same product. I have more variety in stickers/tattoos.
