Different Horses for Different Courses??

Post by kris@tubzbrandsltd »

Hi all,

It has come to light that customers have been offered certain better offers that have been branded ( inc delivery)...

Us as suppliers were allowed on here to offer and tell potential tower operatives about our pricing schemes.

But I have had customers phoning me telling me totally different to what has been branded (price wise as well)!!! on this forum..

Can anybody tell me what the actual prices are that suppliers are offering (inc delivery?) :beg:

As i see it if you brand a price it is for one and all.. NOT for one :out:

I dont think that will happen, Matt, as Kris has been quite clear about the tubz vending pricing policy and I quote -

"As all our customers know with our price promise 'Match it and beat it policy' tubz vending Brands will have to offer these prices and beat that price on the Mini eggs by £1 a per box."

Obviously, there policy is reactionary as opposed to SF and Hurleys who seem to be sloging it out with the "we gave you the best prices first" type of policy.
You pay your money and takes ya choice with whatever stratergy sits most comfortable with you, I guess! :tea:

Hi Nigel,

Yes as I have said to you we will always be happy to match any proven price & beat it by £1 off the mini eggs. :alc:

I just dont see the point in putting pricelists on here if suppliers are not going to stand by them??? :club:

Fact - All suppliers have different prices depending on who you are and the Quantity you order!
So why are they going to open a can of worms by putting prices up on here!
Its not an ideal senario but I know many companies outside of vending have the same policies when it comes to prices!
Anyone read about that TRUE story about the Ministry Of Defense where paying more than £20 for a light bulb that could be bought in a DIY store for 65p!! :yikes:
