One of the ways I can keep prices down is that I have very little bookkeeping costs. This saves you and me $$$$$. I recycle shipping boxes. No sales commission people are employed. My lower prices reflect these savings. My web site says it all. I print no huge fancy catalogs. The cost of printing those color catalogs and mailing are reflected in their prices to you. Most items are direct shipped from manufacturer so you don't have the added costs of shipping to me and then again to you.
Other catalog companies charge you a flat rate for shipping. They add 15%-18% to the cost of your order. When we charge shipping costs, we don’t estimate or charge you a fixed percentage. We charge you exactly what Fedex or UPS charges us. This could be a savings to you of up to 7-10% of your order. Handling costs are part of the business and are not charged to you.
Even if you get an ACA or non-profit discount from the catalog guys, MY PRICES ARE STILL BETTER.
As a former camp owner, I fully understand the ins and outs of running a summer camp as I have been in your shoes before. I am available 7 days a week and don’t mind if you call in the evening. When you speak to me you are getting more than a pencil pusher taking your order. I ask the ‘right questions’ and give you an upfront answer. If I can’t beat the competition's price ( not likely) I will tell you or I can make suggestions to help you on your order.
When you place an order, PLEASE PUT MODEL NUMBER OF ITEM, LIST COLOR CHOICES IF ANY ARE LISTED.
SCAN AND E-MAIL USING AN EXCEL SHEET. By doing this, it saves us time and money so we can keep our prices lower for you.
