I want a retailer to sell my creation.

Is there a vending machine that I can give to the retailer... that will sell my creation, and split the profits between me and the retailer... WITHOUT me having to include a FULL-permissions-copy of my creation inside the Contents of the vending machine?

I use the Hippo Tech networked vendor, that includes an affiliate or catalogue vendor option. You put your items to sell in your server object, configure the affiliate vendor on the Hippo Tech website, then hand out the no-mod vendors. There's nothing inside this vendor but the Hippo tech scripts. Lots of options, and it's a very solid system.

I've been using this for several weeks - giving the vendors to my affiliates. They rez the vendor in their shop and get to keep a percentage of all the sales. Payments are automatically split and sent to the proper people. Hippo takes a very small (1.5%) cut to cover the costs of their webservers, etc.

Not a sales pitch, I'm just a happy customer.

I've also seen other similar vendors, but have not tried them.

Vote #2 for HippoVend. Top quality product, very practical, and great support for the price.

I've found HippoVend networked system to be reliable with good support.

there are a few diffrent free scripts that do this in these forums.

look under scripting libary forum

ive never seen any vendor that required 'full perms' of course if the item is 'no tran' it cant give out and if it is 'no copy' it can only give it once.

I heard these can be hacked by sending your L$ to an alt before the script can tell your funds are low. Then you get a free item since you have L$0 to send.
Unless that was a previous system.
