That's awesome man, I have walked past these so many times and had no idea you ran them 😅 will buy something next time I am walking past for sure!
This was such a fun watch!
Can't wait for one in the north!
It may still be a few months yet!! Will keep you posted!
What is your biggest advice for setting up a card vending machine business?
Have an online business first! It's definitely better to have some experience selling cards before moving to vending. Mostly just from a stock acquisition standpoint.
Hi Pokelotto, this is such a great video have personally been thinking about starting my own but don't worry im not based in Australia.
Just wondering if you didn't mind sharing
1. How much did these cost and where did you get it from?
2. How much does each machine make per week in profit?
Thanks for eating Vita Brits in a Weet bix bowl ❤️ Also would love to know how you get started doing this as it’s something I’d love to do tbh…
Just sharing the love!
What would you be interested in putting in your vending machines?
@@Pokelotto_ im thinking pokemon cards, snacks, and/or even import some Pokemon branded snacks 😅
First step would be establishing your product lines. Then, get your supply chain in order to keep it stocked. Acquiring a machine shouldn't be too hard. There are some second hand ones available. But if you can't find one of those, you can get them new for about 7-10k each plus fees. The hardest part is getting a spot in vicinities. Most of them don't have space for machines, so might have to press owners pretty hard to find a spot! But if you can get in, it's definitely worth it!
@@Pokelotto_ I appreciate the info a lot!! Thank you
Hi, i am have 3 quite recent vending machines already running in a park with at the moment only drinking and food, but i am thinking of switching one of those in pokemon cards vending machines🙂 thank you for the inspiration👍🙂
Any practicle tipps or mistakes to avoid for a newby?😅
Do the vending machines just drop the products, or is there a shelf that goes and collects them? If it's the former, people will definitely complain about their cards being dropped into a collection bin.
@@Pokelotto_Ah yeah you re right, actually they all do drop the product🙈😅 yeah that s a bit an issue😅
But here in Luxembourg other type of vending machine are so damn hard to find😅
Is it hard to get a licensed vending machine from pokemon company?
Or how did you get yours, if I may ask?
@Angelo.Tenshi my vending machines are TCN machines. They cost about $10k AUD, and come with all the bells and whistles.
@@Pokelotto_ ok i see, i ll try to find some here. Thx a lot 🙏👍
I guess i could put the mystery pack cards in these small boxes like they do in vending machines in japan, that small bix could protect the falling cards😅
Where can I get the STL file for those? Rails
"Moma is a fantastic piece of software" 🤨 lol
When it works 🫣
How much are evo skies packs in your machines?? Just curious, I get mine from Pokemon Center Vending machines here in WA state.
G'day! They're currently 19.95 in the vending machines and $16.95 on my website. Getting super hard to find atm haha
@@Pokelotto_ Yeah they're getting scarce, I've got a stockpile of them lol (340ish packs). I'd love to work with Pokemon merch like this, looks awesome (I'm sure its not 100% easy though) I got the chance to talk at length with a Pokemon Center Vending restocker, interesting experience. BTW Excellent video and editing!! (Also JJK is 🔥🔥🔥)
Thanks so much! Yeah, definitely not super easy to get into, but great when you get going.
Hi great video, thx for sharing it! What app do you use to keep everything tracked? I m sure doesn t work with all vending machines right?
Thanks. I use moma, that works with nayax.
Would really like to know what you have invested in the machines actually what they cost to get up and running
Each machine is about 10-11k AUD
Is there any copyright licensing you have to attain for having a character on the machine?
Pokemon is a bit harsh in terms of copyright for content, but they're pretty chill when it comes to using their iconography to sell their own products.
I guess personal question l whats the revenue and cost of stock per machine in a month?
I won't give out exact numbers. But it's pretty healthy!
Im in the US, where would be the best places to source product if i want to do a machine like this?
Any of the US distributors would be where you want to get English Pokemon Products. Japanese products, you can find sellers on instagram primarily.
@Pokelotto_ thanks do Japanese cards typically sell well in the US?
@voyagetravel1840 wouldn't have a clue sorry.
