So....I have been looking at new distributors that might give me better deals for New Years and/or July 4th, i have been looking at Red Apple fireworks and actually emailed them in more than 1 occation with shipping questions but seems they are not interested in my business. Seems that i will be going with Spirit of 76 or Victory Fireworks as both have been kind enough to reply, Spirit actually went as far as giving me a call to answer any questions that i may have. The price difference starts to set in after 3 cases compared to my local wholesaler but their inventory is much bigger than my local guy.

That shipping is what prevents them from sending them to you. not many ship because they might be committing a crime because of where it gets shipped to and because they are explosive and the packages are not handled with care. Especially if they try to ship through USPS its a crime. Ive asked some locations in New Mexico when i drove back from Nebraska to California if they would ground ship me some items they all said no. but i did come back with a trunk load.

So that time of year to celebrate our nation is coming up, i had big plans for this year but as life happens things sort of have a way of falling thru. In the past 12 months i have made some interesting friendships to say the least, all with the same burning(pun intended) love for fireworks and on levels that i can only imagine to reach; we failed to place orders on time for me to take advantage of their shipping methods but i found my own sources and thus managed to place one last minute order even at full shipping cost. I am excited because while i am not going the size i wanted i will be pushing limits of what a usual neighborhood show is. Last year my total tally was just about $200 and 2 cases, this year i have placed an order via freight(groung companies do not ship fireworks) consisting of 15 cases(about 600 pounds) and hitting just shy of 1k(original order was 26 cases ). Hopefully everything gets here on time, i now have 3 wholesale accounts and building relations with other folks in the business. i will take pictures once things get here.
