I.B.---The IDX parts I listed have been sold and the Crypto Coordinator also. Thanks.

Thanks all of you for your kind thoughts and well wishes. Sometimes when you are handed a whole bunch of lemons, you have to figure out a way to make lemonade that tastes good!!!

I have not been on AutoCareForum since 2018 due to health problems. I rejoined recently to reconnect with many of my long-time customers. I manufactured the high security vending machine known as ShurVend that I began selling in 1999 to the car wash industry. I was in the self-serve business...

Hey Waxman, I've been gone from the forum for quite a while with a big change in my life over the past 2 1/2 years or so. Why I looked at the forum on Labor Day beats me but here I am. The Crypto situation with your vendor is yes you add Crypto if you have the newer versions of the...

GoBuckeyes, Do you have 32-inches of space? Send me a text with a pix of where you want to install a vendor. Uncle Sam

• “S”—SECURITY (Priority #1) of the vendor from theft and vandalism is assured by proper design of the steel cabinet, credit card protection, door, and being secured to a concrete pad or to a wall. The current versions of the ShurVend high security vendors have been found to be very effective...

The use of websites to provide information about our products has been shifted to the cheaper, more popular, and easier to use social media platform called FaceBook. Understanding how it works and learning the new keystrokes to use it have been somewhat frustrating at times. but, if my...

crewchief97, When is the last time you had your bill validator serviced? Are there other errors listed on the control board? As part of your vendor procedure your eliminate all the errors about once a month. The control board is seeing something in the validator it does not like, so it...

We have designed a security cover to protect the CryptoPay reader from vandalism such as knocking it off the vendor with a hammer. I do not understand why the “bad guys” want to do things like that; there’s no money in it. We have had Nayax readers blown off the front of the vendor, so we...

The electronic ShurVend has its own bill validator, coin acceptance and wireless credit card systems, so it is a highly secured stand-alone vendor. The stand-alone (Kiosk Style) feature allows it to be installed anywhere on the wash site. With the help of our customers we learned that the...

I started experimenting with new glass-front vendors with the latest technology in 1996 on my own washes using expanded steel mesh frames as security. Vending car wash items was difficult and not very successful because the vending helixes made just one 360 degree turn & didn’t always vend...

Ghetto Wash, You had a very bad experience at your wash. It is very difficult to try to help disabled or handicapped people; they are just dead weight to try to lift. Even though our hearts go out to them for their situation, sometimes you just can not help. You tried your best and it...

bighead---The City did not want this wash where it is and tried to get the operator out of there. They have delayed and fought with him for 3 years to shut down the rehab, so I don't think the City officials will forget. I have another customer that is in an ADA lawsuit right now over some...

ShurVend has a customer right now that is doing a rehab of an older self-serve car wash and has been told by his City’s officials that every piece of equipment in the wash including the vendor will be measured against the ADA requirements. These ADA requirements will mean that certain parts of...

The car wash industry, either self-serve, express or full serve, has never had to deal with ADA requirements except maybe in their restrooms and using ramps instead of steps the same as other commercial businesses. Recently I have had experiences with operators building new or rehabbing an...

Hi All, This has been a very difficult year for me, but now my life is getting back to normal slowly but surely. I am looking forward to next year to get back to where ShurVend should be operating. New vending machines have been designed during the past 5 months which will be offered...

I have had a very difficult February and March, 2017 with some health problems of my own, but i am on the mend now which feels so good. The medical types do not know all the answers to some health problems, so some of us endure in spite of what they tell us. I am happy to report that i will...

I have been absent from the Forum for most of 2016 since my last post in May when I announced that I had to skip the Nashville show due to my wife’s health problems. She had continuing heath problems for the rest of the year until she had a massive stroke in late October. She spent the next...

John, The vendors are using all numbers now for selection and pricing. We can get the correct label sheets for letters and numbers if you send me the serial number of the vendor. You can also stick the labels that fall out back in place by putting a dab of silicone on the back. Uncle Sam

John, Randy's info is good and maybe helpful to you. The nickels, dimes, quarters, and dollar coins are all programed into the changer when we receive it, so I am not sure there is any problem with the programming. I called my Mar's repair guy to ask him what might cause this problem...
