|  US and Other Disties I have heard several people make references to US disties and I was wondering if anyone could fill me in... I have a small salon in a small town and I'm always looking for the best deals. As far as Canadian disties, who are your favourites?

Have you only been ordering from one disty? Are they giving you a discount? __________________ ************************************************** ***************** Grammar Tip of the Year - Apostrophes are for condensing and belonging...NOT pluralizing.

We would be considered low volume, so no discounts have been offered. We've been using CanTan, Uvalux, and TanMax depending on sales, etc. We've never had issues with the time it takes for orders to arrive and we've felt shipping prices were fair when the orders were too small for free shipping. __________________ Money isn't the most important thing in life, but it's reasonably close to oxygen on the "gotta have it" scale. -Zig Ziglar |

My question is more about US distributors and their prices on lotions... __________________ Money isn't the most important thing in life, but it's reasonably close to oxygen on the "gotta have it" scale. -Zig Ziglar |

It would violate the contracts they have with the companies to protect the Canadian disties. How many beds do you have? __________________ ************************************************** ***************** Grammar Tip of the Year - Apostrophes are for condensing and belonging...NOT pluralizing.

| It really is all about me Join Date: Oct 2006 Location: Canada Posts: 63 | Re: US and Other Disties Basically I was asking if there were US distributors who had better prices than those here in Canada. I have one bed and one booth. __________________ Money isn't the most important thing in life, but it's reasonably close to oxygen on the "gotta have it" scale. -Zig Ziglar |

| Hall of Famer Join Date: Jul 2006 Location: Canada Posts: 3,865 | Re: US and Other Disties Yes they do. They are much more competitive. They're cheaper at cost and they get discounts on top of that. *hissss*  __________________ ************************************************** ***************** Grammar Tip of the Year - Apostrophes are for condensing and belonging...NOT pluralizing.

| Old ******** Member  Join Date: Nov 2005 Location: Canada Posts: 884 | Re: US and Other Disties but the kicker is the shipping and brokerage. When you add that on a small order, there is no savings. If you have a bigger order, then there could be some savings. __________________  www.islcovetravel.com |
