Mars MC5000 - doesn't want to take dollar bills

06 October 2011 - 06:37 PM

- Mars is installed on a Dixie Narco Pop Machine

* Unit shows a solid red dot on the outside door

I have unplugged the connectors , replugged , machine power cycles , but will not take dollars - ( changer is full & clean of fuzz etc )

All selections work & are full of soda


Thanks

Should I purchase?

16 November 2010 - 02:49 PM

Looking to purchase to what appears to be a very well run vending route with 20 established locations -

Each location has pop & snack machines & are nicely located geographically - & all appear to be nice looking machines(via email pictures)

many spare parts are included including dollar bill counter , coin roller & counter

2 newer coffee machines not being used as well as 3 snack machines

also included which I like very much is a low milage 3500 gmc custom bubble box truck (looks like new) with a power lift gate - this truck has been outfitted for vending only & was bought new in 2003 has custom shelves, coolers etc

Business grosses 40K without the xtra machines being used - & takes around 10 - 12 hour a week to service

Asking price is 30K

For those of you with experience how does this opportunity sound to you?

I am going to look at this tomorrow what might be some good questions to ask & what should I look at in the equipment?

6 of the pop machines are Pepsi leases but have always been no charge as long as you buy Pepsi - I like the fact that if they break Pepsi fixes same day usually - the owner also keeps several Coke selections in these machines & of course removes the Coke if a machine is being serviced by Pepsi

Anyways advice would be appreciated ,

Much Obliged
