| Yes, I love Bullseye that much! |
Well folks, sadly, there really isn't one here in Canada, as we so aptly pointed out in that same posting,
So, what's a coe 90 fuser to do?
Why not try out the best source there is- buy from Bullseye direct!
Yes folks, it's true!
Why bother with the couple of Bullseye dealers that most likely won't have what you want, when you want it, when you can go on Bullseye's easy-to-shop website and buy it swiftly, easily and painlessly there. And by doing so you'll get everything you need. Easy. Ah heck Gary Brown does it in his underwear (boxers sadly, not briefs). And besides, it seems that with such a beautiful on-line shopping cart along with some very generous discounts they offer (up to 50% off!), it's obvious that Bullseye themselves would prefer you buy from them rather than their dealers anyway.
With the dollar at close to par and no duties (NAFTA Agreement) there really isn't a price penalty either, especially when you see the incredible discounts Bullseye gives every day.
And in August, they are having a sale so big that you could save enough money to make flying down worthwhile!

Thanks Mike. Never knew Bullseye was so agressively going after the retail market. Must suck to be a dealer of their glass today.

There may be no duties...but there certainly are brokerage fees...unless of course you go with USPS ( ok maybe not so good idea with glass ) then go for UPS which does charge brokerage fee...so all in all Mikey, I'd still choose you if you had a distributor that supports you.
what's wrong with boxers?
Superb posting, I share the same views. I wonder why this particular world truly does not picture for a moment like me and also the blog site creator :D
Nice to see them really focussing online. Seems like the future, instead of a store just sell everything online.

Where to buy Bullseye you say? I think you have to buy from BU direct as even they have no clue at all about where to buy their glass in Ontario, Canada. I just got an email from them and at the end they lamely trynto promotemtwo of their dealers. The one in Canada doesn't exist any longer and the website linkmthey give is dead.
Way to go BU!
Frankly, I think if I were an international company and had only 3 merchants selling my stuff across Canada, I'd keep my mouth shut and work on finding more, but that's just me.

The problem with BE is that they want to undercut and alienate anyone who actually has the buying power to represent their product. Why would someone come into my shop to buy BE when they can buy it direct for the same amount or less than what I can buy it for wholesale? I contacted BE a while ago and asked to be included as one of their suppliers on their website. They told me that I didn't stock enough of their product. I just recently inventoried my BE stock and I have over ten thousand dollars worth of their glass. That doesn't even include the frits and powders that I stock. I am slowly phasing out BE now. I will carry a limited supply but that's about it. I won't replace what sells unless I have a customer who wants me to order it for them.
Back when BE opened their first "resource center" in Portland my main supplier tried to call out to all the big suppliers (D&L, Hoy, etc..) to help stop it. My supplier was pretty much told by the big guys that it wasn't a problem for them. Well, now that BE is opening more retail (err, I mean resource centers around the country, the big distributers are crying foul. Guess they should have spoken up earlier. At the same time I think that BE is shooting themselves in the foot.
