Hi Andy,
1. Where do you get your stock for the Tomy’s from?
2. Is it actual Tomy products you are using?
3. A customer recently asked me for a Tomy, wanted 50% commission, I just smiled! I said best I could do with commission is 25%.

Kind regards,
Paul

Hi ,

Most of my stock from ATN though I get some from Toyvend.

A mixture of stock, not a lot of Tomy. This year it seems slime and neon stretch cords are the biggest sellers.

I nearly lost a really good site cos someone offered him 50%, I went upto 30%. It was 25%. It does about £600pm

I've had a couple of sites tell me they have been offered 50% commission. I've clarified with them that it is actuallty 50% (and not 50% of profit etc) and they have assued me it is.

Seems strange as with the cost of the product, 50% would leave very little money left, hardly worth bothering with. Unless, the site are just trying it on trying to push up what I'm paying them?

50% of profit = 20-25%

This one was 50% commission. Its a play barn, I have a couple of toy machines and a pinball. Whoever offered him 50% was on the condition they put a lot more stuff in including ride-ons and other electronic games which take cash but with no stock to buy. So the vending operator would make 15-25% on toys but 50% on the other stuff. The site owner wasnt stupid enough to give away control of his business. He has just asked me for a small carousel (its about 3k) that will be at 50%.
