Gizmo Vending Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 All these machines are is rebranded selectivend equipment. https://www.selectivend.com Personally I don’t use that brand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZVendor Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 Do not buy from the internet. It's that simple. You also don't need any graphics on a machine, just the machine itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bblack2626 Posted April 4 Author Share Posted April 4 @AZVendorWhat do you suggest then? I’ve bought from Facebook marketplace, but I’d love to be able to finance a couple of machines and have them shipped to location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tblake05 Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 Why would you want to finance machines? We're up to 28 and never financed a single one. All mine have been existing locations, bought from a local refurbisher/seller, or used facebook/crigslist machines that I got for a good price and cleaned/rebuilt myself.

Bblack2626 Posted April 4 Author Share Posted April 4 @tblake05Well we have 1 machine and not a lot of money in savings, so in order to expand at the rate we are going, we have to finance the machines. I’d love to not have to finance, but machines cost money that I don’t have to throw around currently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZVendor Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 Where do you live? If it's a large metro area then you'll find some distributors there, especially for used machines. New is never recommended unless a hellacious account requires it. Financing though is easier through a new machine distributor. You'll find that USI has the largest footprint now and they LOVE to do financing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tblake05 Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 My advice…. Don’t expand too fast. Why are you in a hurry? Guys have gone bankrupt financing tons of machines, then they have to charge too much, no one buys….. someone else comes in with older, equally nice, refurbed equipment, that’s paid off and they can charge less. Then you lost your loc. be careful my friend. Especially in a time when EVERYTHING is more expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bblack2626 Posted April 5 Author Share Posted April 5 @tblake05 It’s just financing one machine. Our current machine is paid off, but this location (that’s producing $1,000+ per month from one snack machine) wants to add a drink machine. I don’t want to tell the customer no, so we are in a bit of a bind in that regard. I think these 2 machines together will bring in over $2000 per month though, so paying off the machine shouldn’t be too big of a hassle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
