Many vending machine manufacturers are out there, but few have achieved the level of brand name recognition as the Coca Cola Company. Coke vending machines are easily recognizable the world over, which translates to bigger advantages for vendors. There are many places you can buy vending machines at a reduced cost, but nothing is better than getting one free of charge unless you are getting one for free from Coca Cola, which would make it a super deal. Coca Cola provides free vending machines so long as their products are the ones being sold. Ownership of the machine still belongs to Coca Cola, but you are free to use the machine. If your plan is to install Coke vending machines in your place of business or at a place that is serviced by your vending business, a new machine would be the best option. Aside from the obvious visual appeal a new machine offers, the reasons why are because newer versions have some amazing features like automated "back-to-base" monitoring, surveillance cameras, and credit cards as a form of payment. These machines are also supported by Coke's superior customer service. No matter if it is cleaning the units, stocking them or routine maintenance and repair, a dedicated customer service representative handles it for you. If you are interested in an alternative to Coke, you can contact an establishment like vendingsolutions.com where you will find they provide free machines with no rental or startup cost and use the Vendtrak System to monitor the machines. However, sometimes budget is a concern, and rightfully so when times are tough. That is when buying pre-owned Coke vending machines can save money because the buyer can find a discounted price for a reliable machine. But it could also be for nostalgic reasons. Used machines can also add the perfect touch of nostalgia to a themed restaurant that displays items from years gone by. It is not unusual to see an antique Coke machine (even functioning ones) at restaurants. The red and white colors are reminiscent of old as mom and pop shops. Great deals for these machines can be purchased at antique shops or eBay. Conditions range from mint to heavily used. It is recommended to look no futher than heavily used though as this could be a troublesome area and put owners at risk. Refurbishing a poorly maintained machine could mean more time, money, and frustration making them more trouble than they are worth. The older the machine, the more difficult it may be finding parts to replace the older components assuming one wishes to have one operational.
