There are actual forums for people that operate vending in all kinds of different machines. The hardest part is margins and placement. You have to walk into random businesses and make the case that they should let you set up shop there, even if its just an "honor box" of suckers on the check out counter. The fact that you can't sell much of anything for a quarter or 2 and expect to make money means a lot of the cheap "bulk vending" machines simply can't make enough to justify the gas to check on them and the cut to the building owner.

The consensus from a lot of the guys that still want to stay in the business is that the future is "micro markets". Basically larger coolers filled with drinks, fresh(ish) sandwhiches, salads, fruit etc... with an automated checkout. These really only work in places where there is a high volume of people that will be in or around a facility for a long time without the time or inclination to go somewhere else to eat a real meal. Think college campuses or a break room at a large office park.

And if you do decide to ask around about putting up a machine, please don't be like the guy that walked into building with a no-soliciting no-trespassing sign, then walked into an employee-only laboratory area to ask me if I could tell him who to ask about putting in a coke machine.

1) I'm going to tell you to fuck off because you're somewhere you shouldn't be.
2) I'm going to tell you to fuck off because I already run a little vending shop at my work.

Bumping so I can give a real reply

Help a poorfag decide /pmg/. I've got 1oz Au, 1oz Pt, and 223oz Ag. I've got about $500-550 to burn and I'm not sure if I pick up another 1/4 of gold or slake my autism by getting to 250oz silver.
