POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Another day another box 📦 This one was fun. I feel like we will look back at these early days videos it will seem funny - like once I have a table and chairs and lights and a set up. Glad you are here from the start!

Anyways.. as always items are listed at krimsclubhouse.com .

Think we are gonna shift to doing Friday drops and posting a video of what’s going up before - like with the next round of mystery boxes. The first group sold out in 24 hours 👀 What do you hope I find?? taken in Chicago, Illinois by @deptofgoodthings

Box 7 of unboxing items from my parents 80s and 90s toy catalog.

Some items up at krimsclubhouse.com -
New items added weekly (as we unbox!)

Huge shout out to @reneehrovat and @rzw_art - I feel so wildly grateful to be able to belly laugh with them as we figure out how to “do actual work”. They were both hired to do art vending machine stuff for @goodthingsvending and now I have them opening toys on camera and climbing box mountain. This work has been so joyful in large part because of community, them and YOU! Feeling about as lucky as I could these days.

What are you hoping to see come out of the boxes??

Until next time!!! 📦 taken in Chicago, Illinois by @deptofgoodthings

Second half of the box. No hello kitty or donkey Kong but I’m fairly confident we will find those things. Truly think I’m less than 10% through the boxes.

Ebook drops this weekend so my energy is gonna shift there for a second - but then back to toys!!

If you could see anything come out of these boxes what would it be? What’s the missing toy of your childhood? The thing you wanted and never got?

I want my hit clips back and my limited too clear blue headset house phone.

Surprise benefit of 80 thousand people showing up here is that yall are crushing the identifications. So cool to read everyone’s stories about the toys they remember and grateful for the help figuring out what I have.

Finally saw our first pokemon!

Really hate doing a two partner but the box was just too full. Gonna try and get the second half up asap!

At first I thought this box was all of 1 thing. I guess it is one type but many styles.

Did a little digging from what was on the box. Said “superdeformed”. @wikipedia came through.

Superdeformed (SD) plastic wind-ups are collectible mechanical toys featuring oversized heads and stubby bodies—a caricature style popularized in Japan during the 1980s and 1990s.

I’m pretty sure these are all unlicensed.

Some items available in the goodthingsvending.com store. You can also go to krimsclubhouse.com (thanks mom!)

Next week we will get the Dracula banks listed (heard yall!) and post some more unboxing videos. It’s is also book launch week, a 101 for starting your vending machine dream!!! But right now here to talk about the stuff.

Items are priced to move. We are finding comps and pricing lower! This may change in the future but for now it’s a win win! You get the goodies and I get some space to move!

Mystery boxes sold out in a day (wild). We will be doing more but probably not for another week or so. Need to get the book launched and all the shipping stuff in order.

If you ordered anything after last Wednesday it will be shipping out this Tuesday. Thanks for your patience - we ran out of shipping labels because WHO COULD HAVE EVER IMAGINED THIS KIND IF SUPPORT.

Feeling really exited for the week again!! taken in Chicago, Illinois by @deptofgoodthings

How many characters can you name? Drop your knowledge below. I know at least 1 - generic alien. Why do I recognize that robot?

I took a bunch of video my first couple days and I’ve learned a lot since then (last week??) but since you wanna see it all I’m gonna post em anyway. taken in Chicago, Illinois by @deptofgoodthings

Thank you all for an adventure of a week!! The last couple days has been a lot of this. Finding the boxes of multiples and moving them out of the room into the studio and working to get them online.

When I peak in a box and it looks exciting I close it fast. Once I have a little more space I will open all those with you promise!

Can I tell you one thing I feel a little nervous about? Next week I publish my ebook that’s been 2 years in the making. A 101 on how to build your own creative vending machine business. Everything I learned building @goodthingsvending . And this week has been so magical and also I’m pretty sure 50+ thousand of you are here to see collectibles. Which I am honored and excited to share! I am also hopeful that this thing I’m really proud of doesn’t get lost in the excitement.

I’m so grateful for the support and OH YEA WAIT. I heard you and made a few $100 mystery boxes available. Not sure if I’ll do it again but fun to try something.

It’s 1am and I’m in my bathroom feeling really good about this edit and really bad about my mic placement. I wonder if last-week-me would even believe this-week-me.

Gonna start loading some of the easier to ship goods on Goodthingsvending.com - tomorrow!

Another one!! Learning as I go. Will be changing the set up of these videos as I get more space.

I know I said I would take today off and I didn’t go to the boxes. Snuck a lil late night video in right under the wire.

For these videos what do you prefer, music or ASMR or a wildcard answer I hadn’t considered like actual complete silence.

Ok bedtime. taken in Chicago, Illinois by @deptofgoodthings
