That,s correct the price has dropped every year ...I don't know if it will drop further but would seem logical...

I've read that they've started advertising in the larger markets and
with the charitable donations (UNICEF ETC.)options now on the machines They have been getting exposure from these organizations and I believe sharing in the costs ...

I also found out that average weekly volumes per machine start first year at $3,000 second year $4,000 and third year level off at $5,000...

And their team of installers averages 5 machine installs per day with peak capacity of 10....and average 150 per month.
