T BIRD Posted December 3, 2007 Author Share Posted December 3, 2007 I ordered another 4 double Elites w/ stands and 1 single Elite w/ stand this morning. I am very happy with the machines especially the ease in which I can remove the coin tray quickly and dump it in a bag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timeman55 Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 Sorry I did not get the photos out to you, ended up getting called out for work. Hopefully you have it all figured out by now. They look like great machines. Hope you get lots of quarters going through them soon. Tee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T BIRD Posted December 20, 2007 Author Share Posted December 20, 2007 So.........right now I have 12 machines placed, and I have 13 more set up and ready to go. ( singles-doubles-and DI ) In the next couple of days I am going to set up the Dentyne Ice product in capsules using a royal blue A&A machine. I will post pics.

T BIRD Posted January 25, 2008 Author Share Posted January 25, 2008 I have a couple of pics with Dentyne Ice in capsules inside an A&A Elite machine. I gotta get them posted. I have a bunch of machines to find locations for. I am still waiting for Cross Country Placements to find me my 3 locations so that I can move on from there. I have about 17 machines to place. I just ordered four more today. I ordered my first case of Certs today also. I am still playing with the 2 sizes of heads and which to use. I ordered a smaller head for the Elite. I want to see what it looks like. I forget what my guy Steve at A&A said its made of. I also may have some information for people about a wheel that may be able to vend Dentyne Ice. ( 2 per vend ) When I get the info I will share it. As soon as I get the info, I am, going to try it in an Elite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timeman55 Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 That is one fine looking machine and stand. The blue color really sets it off. You'll have to let us know how the dentine ice works out, I'm interested in doing the same kind of set up Tee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T BIRD Posted January 29, 2008 Author Share Posted January 29, 2008 Will do Tee. Thanks for the compliment. I placed a double in an Old Navy break room on Saturday and have another double going into a Walmart breakroom as soon as I talk with the manager tomorrow and figure out which day I am bringing it there.

Faith Vending Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Question real quick. ( for my husband) Is this a better way to go. T-Bird. U used a globe ( and a very nice one I might say) and put the DI in caps instead of just buying the DI machine from the company. Eve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eve imo its better to get the machine from steve.for 137(or so)you get a machine with stand a 3lbs bag of DI shipped to your house.the machines come with the cash and dash feature too.

Faith Vending Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 Thanks....we have spent so much money up front......but we really like the DI idea. We think it will go over big here. Thanks Eve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T BIRD Posted February 6, 2008 Author Share Posted February 6, 2008 Question real quick. ( for my husband) Is this a better way to go. T-Bird. U used a globe ( and a very nice one I might say) and put the DI in caps instead of just buying the DI machine from the company. Eve Eve.......I did that because I was not comfortable with the Dentyne machine. Also using capsules has an appearance of a more hygenic vend. Women especially may like that in hair salons etc. I disagree with what Antonio said in a previous post here about the Dentyne machine having a 'cash and dash' feature making coin pick up faster. It does not have that. It has a coin tray BUT you have to take the lid and the globe off to get to the coin tray. And then you have to lift the coin tray out and off of the rod to dump the coin unless you slide your hand into the coin tray and take out the coin. Thats not fast to me Eve. Good luck to you sista! You seem to have lots of energy!! Thats great!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
new2this Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 Hello, Your machine looks great. I have to ask, how long did it take put 2 mints in each capsule? Also, did you save any $$$ buying your machines from AA and buying the caps and mints elsewhere? Thanks, Coop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, did you save any $$$ buying your machines from AA and buying the caps and mints elsewhere? Thanks, Coop Buying the machine from A&A Global instead of Superpro saves me saves me a few bucks......not all that much. I just prefer the A&A machine over the other one. I will give you an example in terms of putting 2 Certs into a capsule. Last evening I went to my storage place to play with the machines for a while? When I got back home in 1 1/2 hours, my wife had enough capsules completed to fill 1 A&A machine to the top and she had about enough for 1/3 of a machine!

Pizz Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 How much is the A&A machine w/ stand and capsules cost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T BIRD Posted February 12, 2008 Author Share Posted February 12, 2008 How much is the A&A machine w/ stand and capsules cost?A double A&A Global machine with stand runs around $140. The capsules are very cheap. They basically come 2500 to a box. I forget the price. Somewhere around 20-30 bucks a box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizz Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Those A&As are nice. I'll have to give them a spin. With those NW60s, how do you vend DI? Do you use the capsules or a modified wheel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you use the capsules or a modified wheel? Pizz......what I do is buy an A&A machine and simply order it with the 1.1 capsule wheel in it and put the gum in capsules. There is another way using parts of wheels from DI and NW? But I will be damned if I can figure out how to do it. Steve from Superpro laid it all out to me nice and neat? I still could not get the NW60 to work and vend DI 2 at a time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizz Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 T Bird, i've been experimenting with my NW60 and I'm getting some pretty great results. I think I almost have a modified wheel made that will dispense 2 Dentyne at a time, or most gums/candies the same size. I will post how-to once I get it completed.

Faith Vending Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 I would love to see if I closed my opening up all the way if 2 DI's would come out of my 1800. I will try i some time later. Eve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

polecat Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 T Bird, i've been experimenting with my NW60 and I'm getting some pretty great results. I think I almost have a modified wheel made that will dispense 2 Dentyne at a time, or most gums/candies the same size. I will post how-to once I get it completed. The configuration we tested with the NW 60 that worked was: Our (SuperPro) DI wheel, NW riser (used for 850 ct. gumballs), NW spring housing. Last time I purchased the 1.1 capsules from A&A, they were about .012 ea. for 5,000. This price may depend on quantity purchased and shipping cost.
