Buyer's Guide

At Vending Village we do all that we can to ensure sellers are being truthful and selling quality items. We Verify Seller IDs, and enforce the highest verification levels available on credit card transactions. We leverage our Rating and Reviews system to build trust, and hold payments until both sides confirm the transaction was successful.

All these measures gives buyers the peace of mind to transact in a safe and honest environment unlike any other.

Sometimes that isn't enough, so it's important to practice best buying habits.

Best Practices for Buyers

Here are some tips to best guide you on your journey of growing your Vending Machine Business when buying online:

1. Never send money offline
   Ensure all communication and money transactions happen through the platform. We will never request money outside of the platform itself.

2. Never provide any personal information
   All information required to transact is requested by Vending Village on the platform when signing up. If the seller is requesting more personal information, instruct them to request it through the platform.

3. Keep all communication in the platform chat
   Ensure all communication happens through the Vending Village platform chat box. This way there is always a record of communication and we can assist in settling any disputes that arise.

4. Read the Product Description Carefully
   Ensure you understand the specifics of the item, including its condition, size, color, and any other relevant details.

5. Research the Seller
   Check the seller's ratings, reviews, and feedback from previous buyers to gauge their reliability and trustworthiness.

6. Understand the Refund Policy
   Familiarize yourself with the marketplace's refund policies in case the location doesn't meet your expectations.

7. Be Cautious of Too-Good-To-Be-True Deals
   If a deal seems too good to be true, it probably is. Be wary of extremely low prices for high-value listings.
