I'm a newbie to vending and I'm looking to buy an existing route. This route has 24 machines on 14 locations. Annual sales are $25k with documents to prove it. Asking price is $15k. Some accounts are good and some are not as great. Is this a fair price? I do know that the soda machines are Dixie narco & vendo but not sure on the snack machines. Thanks for any help.

It seems like this is a good starting point for you. Realize that this will keep you busy, especially early on. Make sure your machine are clean, inside and out. Ask for service records and ownership records for the machines. Have the seller introduce you to all the customers and be prepared with business cards.

Properly establishing your business will save major headaches down the road. Document everything, even things you think you will remember.

Best of luck. Most importantly, have fun!
