The news comes as Snapchat begins its financial roadshow in London ahead of its highly anticipated IPO.

Meanwhile, the pop-up vending machines will continue to move around the US. A Snap spokesperson told Techcrunch 'Response has been positive since November's launch, so we're now happy to be able to make Spectacles more readily available — especially for those in the US who have not been able to make it to a Snapbot.'

Earlier Snap in its IPO filing mentioned that the Spectacles had failed to generate significant revenues for the company. The filing also mentioned that the company expected to experience production and operating costs related to Spectacles well in excess of the revenue obtained in the near future.

Snap, owner of the messaging app Snapchat, last week set a valuation of between $16.20 billion and $18.52 billion in its initial public offering, significantly below expectations. The company was widely expected to be valued at between $20 billion and $25 billion.
