Hopefully the new National Vending forum will become a useful resource for everyone in the industry, rather than a pedestal for rants and we hope to contribute / share with all members productively.
We have now 'de-franchised' our business model and the master franchisee in England, Wales and Eire is no longer in place, employed nor related to the Naughty Vend brand meaning we can now supply independent operators whom wish to operate in this genere of washroom vending without restrictions or the need to purchase a franchise. Existing operators can even use their own equipment and sell our branded products, with the back up of our national call centre and sales / support to help you operate your vending business.
Nice to see you on here!
Not too many "washroom operators" on here at the moment but hopefully that will change!
My question is I have a couple of the disposible camera machines that I want to put blow up sheep in as they are the same size box.
Could you please pm your prices for the inflatible sheep!
Inflatable sheep and a "Norfolk" Boiye!!! Cue the XXX rated jokes LOL!!

They are £15.95 a box of ten (£1.595 each), no MOQ and already in a vend carton 120x65x35mm for vending but these are nothing like the previous sheep... this is an all new girlfriend called Lady Bah Bah. Arriving into stock on Tuesday 08th March 2011.

nige,
stick the electronic fags in them mate
We gave that a go Dave but found even the disposable ones were too expensive to buy and thus reflected a higher selling price which the customers were not happy about, sales were not that great (better than cameras granted) and some health claims are starting to surface from America - mouth cancer - so we dropped the product.
Giving these camera machines life is brilliant, I like the idea of sheep in them and will be giving that a go too.
We are trying to get some e-cigs sited currently after I met Dave and I like the product.
The problem we are having is that most of our pubs have been told by their brewery that they cannot have them in the pubs. The issue is that it allows someone to visibly smoke in the pub, so other customers will assume that they are allowing real smoking and try to smoke real cigarettes, which then causes complications with staff having to intervene, explaining they are not real fags and there is a difference etc.
Personally I cannot see it is that much hassle for a pub do deal with, especially if it's all locals etc, but that's the story we are getting from many pubs we have tried. Landlords/managers like and understand the product but aren't going to go against brewery rules.

You can get "Blue Tip" which glow with a blue led to make it more obvious this is an e-cig but the atomiser still gives off a vapour and that's what staff and punters see, resulting in potential for conflict with other customers as you have illustrated, so the national chains have generally rejected the concept. I find most customers want to go outside for a real cigarette anyway so long as the weather isn't being all British... Once confronted a customer will feel alienated and probaly leave the pub perhaps not to return for an extended period.
We've learned not to pee where we stand because it was deemed socially unacceptable and the sawdust was expensive, so now we go to a wee room to smoke.
