It replaces workers with robots so it would probably save money too.

    When I visited california, there was a mall with multiple vending machines like the one in the OP for various foods and icecreams.

      Bet it was inside the mall, with a camera watching it. Japanese vending machines like the one mentioned can be just outside nbd.

        They were in the hallways, not out on the street. I didn’t look for any cameras, but there wasn’t any security nearby that would’ve seen anyone vandalize them. If there were cameras, I can’t imagine it mean much to people wearing a mask.

        I’m not saying vandalism isn’t more common in the US, I’m sure it is in compared to hyper-respectful Japan, but I don’t think it’s absolutely impossible to have these.
