I actually used to work for a vending machine company out here in Los Angeles also, If you can get yourself a good route with some good volume, and if you can own about 20 machines you could make some good money, the only problem is that you actually have to go out once a week and refill these machines up, so it could be profitable if you serious about that. A good machine costs about 3-4 k brand new, probably 1500-2000 used, but the problem is finding locations, arcades, gas stations (that don't have a mini mart) offices etc......
