Sgolembiewski0903 Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 Some guy is offering a "Vending Bonanza" on craigslist, looks like it's a storage unit or something. He's got some BC500's that appear to be in good shape for $150 and a few smaller USI units (1 snack and 1 drink slave) for $150 each. I'd be all over this if I had the means to go pick them up! https://phoenix.craigslist.org/cph/ele/d/vending-machine-bonanza/6589140871.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgolembiewski0903 Posted May 15, 2018 Author Share Posted May 15, 2018 No idea if he's got the keys/what condition they are actually in though, worth a look for someone with the time though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZVendor Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 I saw the ad and it looks like all but the BC500s are garbage imports such as Wurlitzers or something. Don't expect much from it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AZVendor Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 Oh, they'll still be there. The ad has been up for a week or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I'm seeing the guy just dropped the price to $150 each from $500 each 4 hours ago... Sounds like maybe a guy bought a storage locker thinking they would be easy to flash-sale at $500... and now time's running out to get rid of them!

AZVendor Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 If he is serious at $150 then have your guy go get them and take your chances. Just remember if they are locked they might be missing parts, but they might also have full coin boxes (unlikely). Are you that desperate to store machines? You must be close to telling your daytime job to shove it, aren't you? It took me a year and 60 machines to go to part-time work then another year to quit completely. How about you?

Definitely don't want to be in the machine-storing business. But I wouldn't mind having a few BC500's ready to go for when an account comes my way. Current inventory = zero in storage.

Poplady1 Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 I would buy them in a New York minute. Fix them one at a time. You will learn a lot and the investment isn't much. Even if you don't have keys you can drill out those locks in 20 minutes. Go for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
