HE WAS JOKING!

I call BS on that.

No they dont.

Yes they do, almost every model that I have worked with (most are Cash Code) have anti-stringing teeth in them that will shred the bill when it is pulled back out.

The one in that machine must be quite old or maybe from a vendor that doesn't have that.

So the the machine still dispenses something without payment. And it destroys currency on purpose. Which is illegal.

Bullshit.

edit: to clarify, I've seen the teeth. But they're not for cutting the bill up, FFS.

So are those penny crushing things that are at every theme park in America. I don't see anyone doing anything about them.

The ones I have dealt with don't usually destroy the bill entirely and they try to keep it inside the validator, the big thing is to prevent reuse of the stringer. It's better to lose a single vend or credit to a stringer and destroy a bill as apposed to allowing multiple uses of it. Think of someone doing that same trick with a $100 bill instead of a 1, the losses can add up really quickly.

If so...

 

[shortylickens]

Its illegal to destroy money.

Throwing a single in the trash when no ones looking isnt going to matter. And obviously no one gives a shit about pennies anyway.

Making a vending machine that shreds cash by habit is very much a fuckin felony. And you can get a surprising amount of jail time for something like that.

Man, that would be a LOT of soda...all the machines that I've seen only take $1s and $5s.

Not every machine that takes bills is a gives you food in return.

Looks like we finally ran out of pics. Lock it up I guess.

It's just an Imgur mirror anyway. I just go there directly now.

yup.


Still a delicious thread though, lots of rage and shit-talking.

We had a bunch of vending machines at Hynix that took dollar coins, and a dollar coin change machine.


It was brilliant. I wish more places would do that.

In the United States, U.S. Code Title 18, Chapter 17, Section 331 prohibits "the mutilation, diminution and falsification of United States coinage." The foregoing statute, however, does not prohibit the mutilation of coins, if the mutilated coins are not used fraudulently, i.e., with the intention of creating counterfeit coinage or profiting from the base metal (the pre-1982 copper U.S. cent which, as of 2010, is worth more than one cent in the United States).[8] Because elongated coins are made mainly as souvenirs, mutilation for this purpose is legal, when location of the coin presser has the permit from the mint to do so.

I haven't seen a vending machine that DOESN'T take dollar coins in several years. They stopped pointing it out even.

Wait....so I can't melt my jar of pennies down at the scrap yard?

Damn Obamacare ruined everything!

The difference is I let you people sort through the Imgur (and other places) mess and it keeps me from being exposed to all that crap. Then again, this thread often is as bad maybe even worse.

I just watched the PBS documentary "Generation Like" (or something like that) and now I kinda understand Imgurians/Redditors a bit more, but that just makes me go D: even more.

Out here in Virginia NONE of them do. And most people dont even know they exist.
