I use A & A Global and Gumballstuff.com for toys and bouncy balls. Sam's Club has the cheapest gum.....when you can get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gumball guy Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 Yes, shipping is brutal. These days "good deals" are few and far between. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoadDogAmusements Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 Depending where you live, you might get better shipping prices from different companies. Or if you can find one that offers free shipping on cases+ of balls go that route. That's what I do. that's usually 2000 27mm balls at a time. or 400 45/49mm.

AncientNumber Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 (edited) eBay has some decent deals on bouncy balls, picked up 2,000 1" bouncy balls for $150 shipped in. Edited April 22, 2022 by AncientNumber Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoadDogAmusements Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 Seems like everyone has raised prices on bounce balls, across the board. Whatever companies were offering free shipping on cases seems to have gone away. I don't think I can sell bounce balls anymore, or if I do I have to do it for $0.50. I can't sell large balls unless I charge like $1.50-$2 which is not realistic... I'm not sure what to do about this, I can't just get a $2 coin mech. I might just not be able to do balls anymore?

The problem is there's not mechs bigger than $1 and I can't afford to sell .40+ products for $1. I'll figure it out, or phase it out I guess.

Everyone has different cost structures in their businesses so you have to go with what works for you. Personally, 27mm balls at less than 9 cents each after tax still gives me sufficient room to make money even at a 25 cent vend. Unfortunately, the financial limitations of mechanical coin mechs will continue to reduce the variety of what we can offer as wholesale prices continue to climb.
