Josh,
Kaeser & Blair has a good reputation in the industry, but don't buy in on the idea that they have a patent on low pricing. I go up against their franchisees all of the time in the Kansas City market, and haven't found them to be difficult competition as far as pricing goes. They do get out and pound the pavement, which is one area I cannot compete in with my current business structure.

I totally agree with you. My point was not the competing on price issue but rather the number of vendors that readily give you EQP just for being affilitated.

Josh,
EQP seems to be the latest discounting craze with suppliers. We always ask for it and are surprised by the number of companies who offer it to gain the business.

"End quantity pricing" referring to the maximum "listed" discount available based on large quantity orders. It is made available for smaller quantities as an incentive.
