Silnylon bulk buy

[William Hanson (live2hunt)]

I have a source that runs a sewing shop and is checking on prices she can get it for but the kicker is it has to 50 yards or more. I only need 20 or so figured I see if there is anyone interested in going in on a bulk buy.

 

[Randle]

I might if the price is good, keep me posted.

 

[WyoBowhunter21]

Keep this thread updated as I may as well.

 

[William Hanson (live2hunt)]

Any ideas on the quantity you guy want as it may reflect the cost?

 

[WyoBowhunter21]

Say 10-20 depending on cost

 

[colonel00]

Might be interested as well. 10-20 yards maybe but denier and color may matter.

 

[William Hanson (live2hunt)]

Color don't matter so much to me so whatever you guys want would be fine.
Also which denier would you prefer?

 

[WyoBowhunter21]

I am cool with just about any color. None of that pink crap. Ha

 

[colonel00]

Color doesn't matter too much here either but if you can get kelly green or whatever is closer to the color of a green SL5, I would maybe take more. As far as denier, I would say that 30D for 1.1oz silnylon (yes it weighs a tad more but that's what it's called) would be a minimum. The SL5 is made out of 15D which would be nice and could save some weight but it might be too delicate.

Oh, FWIW, ripstop by the roll has a sale on 1.1oz silnylon right now for $5.95/yd and they show theirs to be 20D so maybe I was wrong and the standard for 1.1oz is 20D. I will have to look around. Anyway, do you think you can beat that price?

I don't know. She owns a shop that works with upholstery fabrics mostly so she'll have to check and see whether her suppliers have it. Any idea what shipping will be on ~20 yards?
That will have to be factored in the cost.

 

[colonel00]

According to the site, RBYR does $6.50 flat rate shipping on all orders. I just did a mock order and it would be $125 for 20 yards.

Treat10 should get you 10% off through nov 30 at ripstopbytheroll also

 

[William Hanson (live2hunt)]

How would I ship it for that price? Think it would fit in a flat rate box and aren't they like 12.50?

 

[colonel00]

Oh, yeah it would be tough for you to ship it for anywhere close to their shipping rates. Off hand, I can't say how big 20 yards would be but I would guess the medium flat rate box which is about what you state at $12.50 or so. Not trying to squash your bulk buy but I happened to see this and it might be better for everyone at the sale prices they currently have.

Bmcox86, I tried to use that code in the mock order I have sitting in checkout and it doesn't seem to work.

Also, I just added 7 yards of the foliage 1.1 and got an offer for a free half yard of sample 2nds silnylon. Not sure what exactly prompts that offer though but that would be enough for some pullouts or whatever.

 

[William Hanson (live2hunt)]

I didn't realize that they had a sale like that going. I'll call her tomorrow and see if she made any progress.

 

[colonel00]

Yeah, let us know because that sale only runs for just under 2 more days.

 

[William Hanson (live2hunt)]

Will do

 

[Bmcox86]

Sorry it's TT10% I looked at the wrong part

The free 1/2 yard I got was teal
