d_striker Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Anyone know what the minimum is for a bulk order? Is pricing that much better at bulk quantities? Their stuff is pretty cheap with the 5% specials they frequently offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mach1soldier Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 (edited) Think it was 25k when I ordered November of last year. Shipping killed it for me. I only saved like 1.50 a box. The discount is pretty stinking good though for dealers. It's just the stupid shipping that killed me. If you live closer then me, and order 50-75k, it would be worth it in my opinion. Less than that, just wait for a sale. If you order a pallet, get freight quotes online. I saved $100 on shipping by arranging it myself. I'm in Oklahoma by the way. Shipping was $375 for 40k bullets.

shinne Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 10k min. I ordered back a month ago. Shipping wasn't too bad but that's because I lived within 500 miles of their center. Shoot them an email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nimitz Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 (edited) if you want their 'distributor pricing' then you must order at least 25,000. remember, their retail website is different then their wholesale website for distributors ...

Shoot them an email. 10k? I ordered 6k online a few months back and still got $5 shipping. ETA-Just added 10k bullets online and still qualifies for $5 shipping.

Shipping was $375 for 40k bullets. 1.50 a box wouldn't be worth it to me. I'd rather just order 10k at a time and have them shipped to my door. I figured if I ordered 25k I would have to get it shipped on a pallet which would be a slight hassle as I would have to get it delivered somewhere and then go pick up 525lbs of bullets.

cwall64 Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 (edited) Wow, 10 - 25K at a time, I guess you guys like them!!! I am still trying to decide between Xtreme, RMR, Zero, etc... I would say those kinds of order sizes are a ringing endorsement. I ordered a 2K from each for testing! Edited July 11, 2015 by cwall64 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkCO Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 If you use MAP2015XB, you can get an additional 5% off one order per customer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't going to go and post your code though. I typically wait until the bullet I want is 5% off. Edited July 11, 2015 by d_striker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say those kinds of order sizes are a ringing endorsement. I ordered a 2K from each for testing! They are good stuff. Accurate, fast, clean, and cheap. Not to mention that are nice and shiny. Almost too pretty to load up when you crack open a box. If they start running out and go on backorder, though, I'll retract that statement and talk about how horrible they are.

rjacobs Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 They have a new deal where you get a 35lb powder keg full of bullets. I got 22k 115g 9mm a few weeks ago. Saves a bit more over the regular distributor pricing. What I have learned on shipping from them is that they use whats easiest for them which seems to be ABF. Well it just so happens ABF is also the most expensive. On this 22k piece order they could have shipped it in USPS flat rate boxes for almost $100 less. I will NEVER use ABF again. Ive used other freight companies with them in the past and it was considerably cheaper. So when you order from them make sure you ask about the freight cost and have them check a few different freight companies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
