Hey Snuff,

Once you know what the minimum order is, ask around for anyone who wants to join in a bulk buy.

I'd be up for buying a few...

I believe if you can prove it's for airsoft, UKARA etc, EG will sell direct.

Hmmm, yes thats an issue.

 

I guess it would have to be anyone who can meet at a common skirmish site.

I recently bought a box of mk5s from SocomTactical.

They were the cheapest at the time who would deliver them.

hope that helps

Been down this road my self , basically unless your buying in commercial numbers your not going to get them cheaper from the manufacture(more than likely it’ll cost you more buying them like that than a retailer)to get the big discounts you need to buy BIG numbers , we’re talking boxes full .

Looks like, just a minimum £40 order and free delivery over £100.

 

But you need to go to the £250+ range before you start seeing decent bulk discounts and even then they're more than buying individual smokes at my local site - I don't know how that works, unless EG's prices have just shot up.

Pyrotechnics are hazardous goods and only be sent by specialist carrier

 

Well, expensive carrier. I'd be amazed if it turns out to be more than a regular man in a regular van, but with better insurance.

Most manufacturers just don’t want to deal with Joe public , for the financial return it’s just not worth the hassle involved . Many moons ago I worked for a manufacturer who made home use products they had a sales site but the prices where jacked up to diswade the public buying from them . If you where buying a pallet full from them it was all automated , the distribution company turned up at the wharehouse gave the docket to the guys there , pallet on the truck away to go job done .

someone orders a couple of boxes ? A docket was generated sent to the wharehouse , the guys there then had to go and bust open a pallet , take off how ever many boxes , take the boxes over to packaging , THEN go back and find a home for this half loaded pallet . Meanwhile someone from packaging had to take it distribution , they had to organise a courier and then finance sorted all the VAT und stuff ! ?‍♂️
Now I’m sure it’s lot easier now due to the TinTernet but even now a lot of hassle for a marginal return ? 
alternatively I could be talking utter bollox ? ?

"Support your local site" I guess.They have offered a fair discount tbh.Thanks for all the help and advice anyway.
