May 7, 2010, Newsletter Issue #216: Why Aren't The Prices Listed?

Tip of the Week

When buying ramps and other material handling solutions, often times you may be prompted to call or email for a price quote. This makes sense in many cases, but for some people, the idea of not being able to get a fixed price for simple solutions such as portable ramps may feel like an inconvenience. However, in many cases calling for a price quote can work to your financial gain, especially if you need more than one ramp or other item. "Bulk" purchases may be negotiable based on the "call-for-quote" system. If you see those magic words, don't automatically move on to another dealer, try calling for that quote first, make detailed notes, and compare prices.
