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 Return Policy
    Familiarize yourself with the marketplace's and the seller's return policies in case the item doesn't meet your expectations.

  7. Check Shipping Costs and Times
    Be aware of the shipping fees and estimated delivery times to avoid any surprises.

  8. 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 items.

  9. Review the Item Upon Arrival
    Inspect the item as soon as you receive it to ensure it matches the description and is in the expected condition.
