new online nursery in Canada selling fig trees...
Comments (8)Hi, tijuanatoad: Don't click on this website: "You can also visit his web site directly at brugmansia-quebec.com" as posted by frozbig. Gives you the 404 error! DO CLICK on the weblink provided by sliebe (see above) "New 2013 catalog now available with up to 66 varieties of fig ........" this should work! After getting to the main page of the Brugmansia-Quebec website, click the "English" icon located on the leftmost text box. Make sure you add the correct shipping fee to your order. I've just ordered some fig plants from this nursery. I like the service(they sent me email promptly)so if anyone in Canada wants to make the purchase, I would highly recommend this nursery....See MoreOnline seed company with low shipping and handling charge?
Comments (37)Is there any perfect seed company that has low seed prices, low shipping and handling, huge selection of varieties all in stock, both heirloom and hybrids, that accepts internet orders using a credit card and ship within a day with no **** No, there is no such perfect company that will offer every OP or hybrid that you might want, that takes phone orders or credit cards and ships within a day or two, that has low seed prices and low shipping costs and has great customer service I'll add. I think it's a matter of you deciding what's most important to you. Is it variety selection? Is it what you call low cost shipping, low seed prices, etc. I don't know of anyone who buys tomato seed from just one company so if I were you I think I'd reveiw some of the companies that have been suggested to you and after checking them out chose however many places might meet your needs, on a priority basis re all the criteria you mentioned.

Comments (14)Normally if a local store is not competitive, there are one of two reasons: 1) The store owner has not adapted to current market conditions. Quite simply, as the profit margins move downward - and they have - they have not revised their business structure to capture sales that would otherwise go to out-of-area dealers. Some store owners insist on adhering to a margin-based price structure and will not adjust. The smart businessman NEVER lets a customer walk out to do business out-of-area. I know a number of store owners who are hard-headed and won't adapt. Its up to you, their local customer, to bring in a price quote and show them that they need to match it or you'll go elsewhere. If enough customers do that, they'll get the message. But if you never tell them, then they don't know. 2) Some furniture makers have a 2-tier price structure. Small stores don't get as large a discount from the maker as larger ones do. Typically its based on dollar-volume sold, or number of pieces put on the floor. So there is a chance that within a certain brand line that you local dealer is paying more for the goods than a larger, out-of-state discounter. This happens to me with Southwood Furniture as an example. My cost basis is 10 % less than the big store in the next county because they do more volume by accident than I do working hard at it. Still they get the volume price and I don't. Nevertheless, I adapt (being a savvy dealer!) and match price or go under them everyday. It results in thin margins, and it does not exactly make me want to invest in a lot of their product for the floor. Personally, I think it a bad policy from the makers as it tends to keep the little guys small regardless of how hard they work for the brand and limits floor exposure for their dealership network. Walk your best price into your local dealer and tell them in no uncertain terms they need to beat it. See what happens! Keep in mind however, that local sales tax is not something that your hometown store cannot waive and should be factored out when price shopping (the flip side of this is that these taxes do come back into your community infrastructure when you buy locally).

Comments (55)We just got our tile! We were also skeptical of ordering from Tile.Expert, but the online reviews and local pricing quotes on tile we really liked convinced us to give them a try. We've been planning far enough ahead on our remodel that a 9-week lead time was workable, and we were excited to have our small but heavy (1,377lbs!) pallet of tile delivered this week; with the freight driver noting that the tile was really well packed compared to some he's seen. The boxes were each tightly strapped to ensure no rattling or movement, then wrapped with a very strong, very thick shrink wrap that kept everything solidly in place, and then all that was strapped down further for it's trip from Italy to the PNW. We unpacked all of it the last two days to find there was not one single broken tile in the shipment, and it was exactly as we'd ordered, at a price well under what we could have gotten locally (we had local tile shop quote on the exact same material, with our designers discount, and it was still significantly higher). We'll try to post some pics once it's all installed in a couple of months:) but wanted to share our experience and recommend the tile.expert folks in the meantime!...See Morerouge21_gw (CDN Z5b/6a)
