Sorry I have yet another question.. We really like to do things the right way and Id rather ask experts than just "go for it" I read a post on another forum mentioning that 1800vending machines were the best.. with interchangable canisters etc...

1. what is the price range of these

2. Are they good?

3. any more debate on the 2 vs 3 heads? It seems possible to get 3 head machines for roughly the same price and without sacraficing size... it seems logical that they would be the choice but some suggest only 2 heads?

thanks a ton

Crap maybe I should have waited to make that post ;) The only other option i would consider that they have is the green.. but even then... I think I would rather have a different brand in Black..

Hi Casseri,

I found these double head black and chrome machines

any thoughts on them good purchase ? It looks like the ones you said were discontinued you can select the double black with chrome on the drop down menu.

Hi Kyle,

Thanks for the advice its good to hear everyones perspectives I really appreciate the vend amounts you listed.. If it isn't too much work did you calculate the profit ratio per vend with that amount of candy coming out? Also I see you listed pistachios, Is this a common item? and is it profitable? Could you link me to some machines that you prefer ?

Thanks for everything

Brian

Excellent advice on the Cashews Caserri. I have already done some legwork and found a placement for our first machine. It is a Tire change center (not lube stop) Its a larger bsiness with about 15 chairs in the waiting room and another 10-15 employees. We are thinking with going Peanut MM's and either runts or gum at this location hopefully it will be decent.. but either way its valuable experience for us.

I am also interested in finding some mint type gum to vend at businesses etc... At my current job I know people are always scavenging to find gum after lunch before heading off to a meeting.
