You are right. I should have put Catania on my list also. One time I was short on time to complete an order and called them late one afternoon to get some stock medals. It usually takes 3 days shipping time from Ohio. As late as it was I knew they would not be shipped until the next day so I was going to really be under the gun. I mentioned my deadline while I was placing the order. I don't know how they did it but I got the medals in 2 days. It was like a weight was lifted off my shoulders. I took the time to call them and let them know they had saved the day.
...Thats funny, I said "ONE TIME" I was short on time.

You're right...that IS funny!
Catania is only the second medal manufacturer that we've used. As long as their quality doesn't plummet, or their prices skyrocket, we'll be calling them again and again.
We should consider our non-inventory suppliers in this, too. How about the people who sold you the engraving equipment you use? I could write a book about the times my "supplier" has come through for me in the last couple of years.
Anyone wanna venture a guess as to who I'm referring to??? B-)
