NEW FORUM FLAGS

[fredethomas]

In late February I send three different flag companies requests for pricing on new forum flags.  Uncommon USA, Inc.; Flags on the Go; and CVS Wholesale Flags.  The spec's. one each are:
1. Certified made in USA.
2. 14" x 20"
3. End hem at least quadruple.
4. Top and Bottom hem at least double.
5. Grommet end reinforced with extra binding.
6. Non-rust grommets with at least a 3/8" hole opening.
7. Three color non-fading.
8. Single sided.
9. Bid on 12 and on 25 for the first order.
10. Include shipping to 85635/
11. Retain pattern for at least 1 year.
********************************
Today [March 23rd] I received the first quote.  It is from Flags on the Go [the company we have bought all the other orders from].  The set-up is $140.  The cost for 12 is $51.53 and for 25 is $31.20 each.  Total cost for the first 25 would be $36.50 to include the set-up fee.  No shipping as those people moved from Quartzsite to just a few miles from us here in Sierra Vista.

Tom - would you mark this as a "sticky" so I can add to it later?

 

[Ron]

Thanks For all your efforts Fred.  Sounds good to me you can put us down for one.

 

[Tom]

Good news Fred. I went ahead and super-stickied the topic, so it doesn't scroll down the page. I also posted an announcement here directing folks to this topic.

Please put us down for a flag.

Thanks for doing this for us.

Is the flag background all yellow like the previous one or is it a yellow circle on a blue square, like the forum logo?  A picture would be helpful, unless the flag is identical to the logo. Well almost identical, since the flag is  rectangular and the logo square..

Jerry & Ardra want one.

Put me down for one Fred.

 

[Karl]

Ditto Karl.

 

[Jim Johnson]

I want one also and I will be over to your house in the morning to pick it up :

 

[Ron from Big D]

Fred:


    Shirley and I will take one.  Do you still need the up-front money?  If so, let me know.

 

[Jeff]

Fred:

We'll take one.

 

[Ron]

Fred,

We will also pay now if you would prefer.  Let us know.

 

[rhmahoney]

I will take one.

 

[joelmyer]

We will take one.

Now we will have to get a flagpole.

 

[Ned]

Put us down for a new one.

 

[Jim Godward]

Taking any trade ins?  VBG

Seriously, put us down for one.  Let me know if you want the money up front.

 

[Gary RV_Wizard]

We will also take one - sounds like 25 should sell out fairly easily. Just let us know when & where to send the $$.

 

[fredethomas]

Gary:  The flag is the forum logo as seen on the top of the page.

 

[fredethomas]

I will wait for the other bids to come in.  Will let you know if "up-front" is need.  Will depend on how many requests I get before the order goes in.  Thanks!

 

[fredethomas]

Joel;  You can get a helium balloon to float the flag. (G)

 

[fredethomas]

Try the old ones on e-bay.  Might get a thousand for one.
