Thumbs up Alvin, I'm sure Jim Carter would agree. I've found that there isn't one single
vendor that can give you the best prices on everything. When I place a large order it would
almost always have to get spread out over a half dozen vendors in order to get the best
prices. But on a large order price comparison of all the items can get to be a major chore
so I usually look for the best price on the largest item and bite the bullet on all the other
small stuff.
Jim Carter's service has been as the others have stated always fair. Their pricing like all
the others is a lot like what you see when shopping at the food stores. One item may be
less at store 'A' and more at store 'B' and a different item that is cheaper at store 'B' is more
at store 'A'. So it's kind of like a dog chasing his tail. If you took six of our vendors and
ordered 25 of the same items from all six of them the bottom line will probably come out
pretty close to the same even though the individual prices vary.
If one guy could supply everything that they sold cheaper than the next guy they would
have what is known as a Wal-Mart, oops, I meant a monopoly.
