Beer980 Posted April 20, 2009 Posted April 20, 2009 I am looking for another 2" cap. Any thoughts on how these are moving?
Medford Jeff Posted April 20, 2009 Posted April 20, 2009 I sell them in 1" caps. Of the 6 toys I am selling at a Dairy Qween, they were 3rd best. They were beat out by plastic rings and mini-malz. Jeff
Beer980 Posted April 20, 2009 Author Posted April 20, 2009 Thanks. With the shortage of Zoo Mania I thought I would try a different direction. I may look into the 2" version of Zoo Mania.
dperry Posted April 29, 2009 Posted April 29, 2009 I see these on many of the supplier sites. Does anybody do the much yet? How are they doing for you? Are BlockHeadz still popular? I've done Monkey'n Around in 1" caps and they were the best seller in my rack that had 4 1" items. So I'm wondering if figurines are really popular or not.
West Coast Vend LLC Posted April 29, 2009 Posted April 29, 2009 If you didn't pre-order 2" Zoo Mania in March you will not get them. The new Monkey Madness in 2" is doing really well but will not be available again until the first week of June. (They look just like the Monkey'n Around but twice the size) Monkey Head danglers are also selling very well. Anything with monkeys do well. Mini-mulz are doing better in some stores than Urbanzee's. Urbanzee's have kind of replaced Blockheads. They are like Blockheads #2. Now, if you are talking about products that really sell, it's zoo and sea mania hands down. I go through over 8,000 of them a month. The new 2" capsules are coming May 15th. I have pre-ordered them and I am afraid to see how fast they are going to sell out. Brand vending takes orders one month in advance for most of there products. Gary
lurtsman Posted April 29, 2009 Posted April 29, 2009 Wow Gary, that's very impressive. I'm looking at opening an account with them, though I'm disheartened by how much pre-ordering it apparently takes to get the mania products. Also, I have some Urbanzees in 2 inch caps coming for my 10way rack.
nam Posted April 30, 2009 Posted April 30, 2009 Gary, Great job you're doing with those Zoo Mania and Sea Mania. Wow!!! Really appreciate your help in posting what is selling well like these and the glow sticks you mentioned. I'd a whole lot rather here what sells well from a vendor like you than a supplier. nam
Beer980 Posted April 30, 2009 Author Posted April 30, 2009 What is it with monkeys? I guess I will jump on the mania list for next month. I just can't see why they crave them being such a plain toy.
dperry Posted April 30, 2009 Posted April 30, 2009 I'm not a big fan of being on the waiting list. I'm not so big that I can buy my product so far in advance or in such volume. If I spend my money for product and I have to wait several weeks before I get it, then I'm gonna be hurting for product when I do my servicing. Top selling item be damned! If I have to wait for it, then I'm gonna get the next top seller from someplace that can provide it right away.
Beer980 Posted May 1, 2009 Author Posted May 1, 2009 I asked yesterday and there is a 20 day wait on the next shipment. That would be almost a month with shipping time. Yea number two would be an alternative if we could decide on what that product is.
havending Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 they are good just dont get carried away with them. I do like the Mini malz they have done well and so has Nick jr.
