royalforest Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Should I buy snack machines refurbished or reconditioned? Fair price? Thanks Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparta_Automation Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I haven't seen machines listed as reconditioned before...but I would think that refurbished would be more like a new machine. I have seen basically as-is, working and refurbished. Unless you are able to fix your own machines....I would stay away from as-is. Working is fine for locations that minor dents, dings and scratches are ok. Travis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snack dude Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 I have appox. 80 soda snd snack machines and I have never bought a new one. I do my own repairs and I would do as -is if I could go look at it and touch it and run it. I wont do as-is off the net. In my opinion working is slightly better than as-is. Most of mine are refubs I think you get the best bang for your buck that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antoniocinisi Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 well if u can fix your own machines it`s a no brainer to get used in any condition if you cant look at getting something thats in good shape or refurbished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
royalforest Posted November 15, 2009 Author Share Posted November 15, 2009 What is a good price for a refurb? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snack dude Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 Look on the net. Theres a bunch of sites selling refubs and they all will run within a few bucks of each other. I have bought from vendors exchange veii.com and have had no problems. I also like vending world www.vendingworld.com and vendohio.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparta_Automation Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 I have bought several machines from a group out of portland....and a few off of ebay. But by far the best service, deals and certainty that you're going to get what you pay for.... http://asiwebvend.com/ Joe (the owner) will return your calls, emails you promptly and is the type of guy that does what he says he is going to do. They have warehouses in CA and NC..... I have bought 3 machines from him and will probably by all of my machines from him unless I can find a local machine that I can touch and inspect first!
