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!

I can't believe they would practically give this thing away! I put several in a combat sim and it had absolutely no negative affect affect due to lag. Well beyond my expectations., so that 5% is well spent rest assured. You guys are amazing, thank you! thank you! thank you!
Best Vendor System on the Grid
Hands down this is the best vendor system I have ever used in SL. It's a gamechanger that will streamline your sales and save you a lot of time. It's practical, efficient, low lag and incredibly easy to use. Fully recommended.
Awesome!
i really liked the product! is a great vendor and only for 1L! the 5% split doesnt really bother me. Is less that in marketplace XD. Also, i like that it has a lot of different vendor styles, wich is really usefull because you will allways have the vendor you need for your shop. Me, as a creator and shop owner, give this product 5 stars! Comletelly recomended.
Caspervend
As a vendor user i tested lot of vendor systems till i got to test this one and i can assure you that this is the best vendor system i've ever approached!
Try this first!
Having seen a friend work through a number of vendors, I decided I would try a "top end" system to see if I could get it right first time. The commission system on Caspervend means that you can use a really fabulous set up and it's fair to Casper too (who was so incredibly helpful and came out to my house when I couldn't get it quite right). I was delighted with the system and as the sales came in from the clean, efficient and attractive vendors, I decided I just had to buy the fat pack and be done with it (see my review there, too!). The web-based system is easy to use and so very flexible and it makes sorting out my products pain-free. The collection of different size (and prim) vendors are fantastic and they rez quickly so there is less chance of your customer walking out through sheer boredom while waiting to see what you sell. Don't waste time with other vendors - although there are some great cheap ones on the market - it's just not worth the time and effort spent in set up. If you are serious (or even just mildly serious, like me), it's so worth it. Try this - you'll upgrade!
A+++
As a small shop owner, Caspervend has made my life simple. From tracking of sales and easy set up. It was tricky at first (I thought you had to put stuff into contents instead of just drag and drop into the drop box), but now I'm a pro at it! Thank you so much! -Sera
