Slurpee Machines? Where to buy?

[Kobe]

I was wondering if anyone knows if it is possible to buy my own surplee machine like at macs, and how much it would cost? I'm guessing around $5,000?


Will they sell it to a random person?
Anyone have any contact information?
Rough estimates on price?


Yah I know I can go into Macs or 7-11 and ask, but I was hoping to try and get an answer online first before making an idiot of myself in the store..


Thanks

No way the public can go in and buy one from a Macs (slushie) or 7-Eleven (the only real Slurpee®). They are available used from time to time on e-Bay or Kijiji from restaurant suppliers but be prepared to spend $1500+ for a good used unit.
Then you have to have it installed and be able to purchase syrup (BIB or bag in box) and again you can't just go to Costco and buy them.
Kobe....hmmmm I know someone in the convenience store business with the same name!

So are you thinking about rigging one up in your house or something?

I saw one for sale the other day at the Real Canadian Wholesale Club in the NE. It was $3000 for a 2 flavor model. I didn't look into what they had available for flavor syrups.

I have a pretty much new condition granita slush machine that has been sitting in my garage for a while now.

I think its very similar if not the same as this one:

Make me an offer?

I have worked with these guys before, they sell new, used, and service the machines as well.

Are you just wanting one for personal use? If so you can get smaller countertop versions, they just cant do the volume the commercial units are built for. Quite a bit cheaper as well.

Problem is not a Machine itself, You have to run CO2 line and I don't think you can get CO2 bottles unless you have acccount with Coke or Pepsi.

You can get food grade CO2 no problem, I know several people that keg their own beer and have tanks.
