1) ~snip...I got a one-word reply, "no".....they said "thank you for your feedback"
So now I'm paring down the list of ATM manufacturers that seem to have a good product and seem to give a rip about customer service, and I'm hoping to purchase my first Bitcoin ATM by early in the new year. Of the two current ATMs I've seen in my town so far, one (CoinFlip) doesn't sell their ATMs to outside parties, and the other is a Genesis Coin model that looks like it's in the $11K retail range, which is a bit more than I can afford to shell out just starting out. Any advice on what I should do (or not do) and things to consider starting off would be greatly appreciated.
1) It sounds like a bot to me.
2) I was going to say, "give it a little time" but I'm not sure, because what if this kind of "business" resulted in positive feedback, you're going to be too late, and if this resulted in negative feedback, you're going to have extreme losses. But what the heck, every business is a risk. As of now, as you stated, that 2 Bitcoin ATMs don't sell very well, only means that it's either doesn't have that much "exposure" to the public or the company doesn't do any advertisement on their business at all. Try it and give it a shot, maybe you can make a difference.
I'd rather get in on the front end of an industry with huge potential and not make much of a profit starting off than miss the boat once it does start to boom. Early adopters in industries such as this need to have lots of patience, and thankfully I have lots of patience. And a day job to pay the bills in the meantime.
