This is CasperVend - A new, optimised, complete networked vendor system.

THIS IS THE FREE VERSION - IT CHARGES 5% COMMISSION PER SALE. Don't like commission? Try the Premium version, which charges NO commission when the vendors are owned by you, and a reduced 2% commission for affiliates! (See related items).

NOW INCLUDES MESH VENDORS!

With this product, you get a DropBox, in which you put your items for sale, textures and notecards, and vendors - which you can rez around the grid anywhere you like. When a customer buys an item, it will be delivered from your DropBox - meaning you can manage every vendor on the grid from just one location!

Stop lagging up your sims with our competitor's products! Every CasperVend vendor and server functions with only one script creating virtually no lag to improve the shopping experience for your customers - people don't shop in laggy stores! For comparison, Hippo use up to 11 scripts in their vendors and 20 in their server!

Come see our vendors in action at our store in Second Life

Great Great Vendor

I originally bought this when i got my In-world store, and with the instructions that were given i set up my vendor in a maximum of 10 minutes, this is a easy and a great vendor to use :D and the 5% commission is worth the features that this vendor contains

I've been using CasperVend for just over three months now, and it's worth it. The 5% commission is worth every L$ for this level of sheer awesomeness!

Its very easy to use and the website gives you nice stats on the goods you are selling. I have been using this in my mall stores where I need low prim and high quality vendors and am not disappointed at all. If you don't feel like paying for a vendor system this is the no risk version.

This is a top vendor system...
full star full star full star full star full star Posted October 01, 2011 by Legolas Luke

I don't do this very . I have used JEVN for years until the system was attacked by thieves after which I found 3 alternative systems of which Caspervend was one. I went with Caspervend about 2 months ago. I tested it in many aspects and today I am happy to say I made the right choice. Overall, quality is in the detail and this product has the detail to get my approval. I am using the free version although I have purchased the affiliate package. The reason behind this is because purchasing the permium package will not do justice to Casper. I pay 5% (or whatever it is) to SL marketplace which is where most of my sales come from and paying that is money well spent in supporting this product.

I highly recommend it.

Thx
