Personally I do not mind bringing business somewhere else, last year I bought 3,000 angle stops and 3,000 faucet SS hoses, sent them a sample/spec, HD sells them for $6-8/pc, supplier prices were $1-1.15/pc, spent another $.50-.60/pc on air cargo and etc.

HD was around 15% more expensive

HD and lowes are hurting for business right now, so go and find a cheap combo to slap in there on some 0% financing.

Situations that I have stepped into that make life interesting are meth-ed hoarders, crack heads, gangs, porn production, prostitution ring, rats, raccoons, bad remodeling, half finished construction jobs, fire (but not brimstone), flood, heirs that were in prison...good grief..just a whole bunch of trouble. 

But, my local REIA had mentioned (when we hd in inperson meetings pre-covid) the concept of 'new investor buying from retiring investor' as a way to get started. 

I have an HD Pro Account and was given an 18% discount on this relatively small order in the "bid room", so I felt pretty good about the price (effectively $2.28/sq ft). 

My psychology is built to fix up crapshacks and deal with broker-than-broke tenants and clean out the porn collections of morbidly obese evictees.

Forget the vending machines, 32 units are peanuts in terms of scale for that type of idea.Go to Lowes or Hd website, you can buy coin op.

These people promoting it look like they don't leave their parents basement and porn hub.
