What is the name of the manufacturer of DVMatic's DVD rental vending
machines (www.DVmatic.com & www.elomedia.com)?  I believe that they
are located in Israel.  What is their contact information (phone
number, address, email)?

I located a Company located in Israel that manufactures a vending
machine for the rental and retail of Videocassettes, DVD, Games, CD,
etc.

Here is an image of the machine.

If this company is of your interest, please let me know and I will
post their full contact information as the answer to your question.

Thanks,

The image appears to be a VHS vending machine.  If this company does
in fact manufacture DVD rental vending machines I would like their
contact information.  If you ran into other companies making these
type of machines, even outside of Israel, I would really appreciate
their names or contact info as well.  Thank you.

I agree that the machine looks like a VHS vending machine, but the
website description is as follows:

"The machine holds up to 320 Video cassettes or DVD. Each cassette comes with 
its own plastic case, to prevent damage during the rental and return process."

Would you still be intereested in the contact information for this
company?  In any case I will see if I can locate other manufacturers.

Thanks, Bobbie7

If it only holds 320 DVDs it is a different machine than the one I was
interested in.  Although I would prefer to have contact information
for the DVMatic machine manufacturer, if you can give me other
manufacturer options that have an attractive, fully functional DVD
rental vending machine that would suffice.  The link that you sent me
was good but the machine is not conducive to customer traffic in the
same way the DVMatic machine is.  Thank you again for your help.

Please take a look at the machine that is mentioned in the following
ABC news article. This machine has a capacity for 1428 DVDs OR 714
videos.The company that manufactures this machine is located in Italy.

Would the contact information for the Italian company and the one in
Israel be a satisfactory answer to your question?

Thanks,

Knowing that these machines are out there is helpful, but I'm really
looking for a more appealing machine.  If you have anything
manufactured anywhere (doesn't have to be Israel) that looks as sharp
as the DVMatic machine that would definitely suffice in place of the
DVMatic manufacturer.

I have not been able to locate any other manufacturers. Perhaps
another researcher will be able to help.

Best regards,

I contacted DVmatic a couple of weeks ago. I agree with you, it does
seem more attractive to new customers compared to the Italian machines
out there. When speaking to them, I got the sense that they take care
of everything for the US market-installation, support, training, etc.
It is definately a DVD machine, not a VHS.

I too would like to know the manufacturer of the Israeli machines.  I
haven't been able to find out who they are yet.  I'm thinking of
investing in one but don't want to pay retail.

This is to pata7 or anyone out there. If you could get me the contact
information for the DVMatic manufacturer, I would be interested. I
would be willing to pay for the info.

Post a comment if you have it.
