Best Vending Machine/System

[LAF]

My old Laurel vending machines have given up working. Any recommendations on the best vending machines? Is it worth replacing them?

I'd stick with Laurel unless you're thinking about a glass-front vendor.

Are there any glass front vendors that would fit in place of an 18 column Vendmaster and offers Guaranteed Vend?

Are they the drop shelf type?

If so you can pull mechanisms out and send back to Laurel for cleaning and servicing.

Yes you can send your drop shelf vending mechanisms back to Laurel for repair/rebuild and they'll come back like new.

Only their Old Faithful 14 item vend has the guaranteed vend. The in wall 18 selection does not. Looks to be a carbon copy of the Vendmaster.

That’s great to know. Any idea how much they charge to refurbish a mechanism?

$10 labor to overhaul a mechanical coin mechanism, parts would be $5 - $20 additional.
All we need is note in carton with your return shipping info, include email for the invoice.
Pay by check after you get them back and test them.

I don't know why you'd want to. The profit margin on vending is pretty small and any fee's from the Nayax would eat up most of your profit. If you really wanted to do it I think it could be done. Why not put a Nayax reader on the front of your bill changer and dispense tokens from the changer, that's what we do and it works out well.

Yes our machines do work now with Nayax or most all credit card systems that offer the MDB output mode.

Great news, so can we order a Laurel vendor fitted with a VPOS touch? We have Nayax units on all of our vacs and bays so we have an active account
Thank you

Since you are in Canada you would source the Nayax Touch and then order our machine 'Nayax ready' and it will come with the door holes punched for mounting and have the access cutout for the MDB cable. Order the longer (3m) MDB cable so you can run the cable up and over to the control board, the standard MDB cable is not long enough.
