As most of you know I sell screws for a living. I've been talking to some volume bait manufacturers and we're thinking about pooling our buying power and getting a bunch of screw eyes. I'm going to get an overseas quote on .092 x 1-1/2" stainless screw eyes. I'm looking for people who would be in for a MINIMUM of 5000-10,000pc. I'm looking to order a min of 250,000. I'm anticipating that we should be able to get them at 1/2 price.

Here's the catch. People would need to purchase a years worth to make this worth my while. My work doesn't mind me buying things from time to time, but it's looked down upon to do it on a consistent basis. This along with the fact that it takes roughly 5 months to get product makes ordering no more then 1 time per year practical.

If you're interested, post or PM me and I'll put you down on the list.

Treats,
That would probably be enough for the rest of my life. However, what are we looking at as far as price. If I can swing it I'd be interested. Pat

Once I get the quote back I'll let everyone know what the price is. I should have it in a week or so. I'm going to send it to a domestic guy and the overseas guy and compare pricing.

That project has been on the back burner, although people have been bugging me about it lately. I'll see if I can get it out this week and see where it leads.
