Libbey requires minimums to all of their distributors and the first order from a distributor must be $2500.00 which is a lot of glass. This is an order from someone like us through a distributor so it effects everyone involved when someone can sell at lower costs. M. Block has also restructured and changed a lot of their distribution also. Both corporate decisions are based on the engraving and specialty divisions which now sell on their own.

I have several libbey selections in my wedding line and now it is two weeks before my first show. I'm just going to have to stress to purchase at the show, so I can guarantee that I have it in stock, while I decide what I'm going to do. </p> <p>Thanks for the heads up.</p> <p>Zona</p><hr /><a name="a4702_7"></a><p><b>From: Engravin' Dave (DATAKES)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4702.7">#7</a>]<br /> 30 Aug 2006<br /><b>To: Zonas</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4702.6">#6</a>] 30 Aug 2006</p> <p>Zona,</p> <p>Anchor Hocking has some comparable items, but I'm not sure if the same parent company owns them and Libbey with all of the changes in ownership over the past few years.</p> <hr /><a name="a4702_8"></a><p><b>From: Harvey only (HARVEY-ONLY)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4702.8">#8</a>]<br /> 30 Aug 2006<br /><b>To: Zonas</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4702.6">#6</a>] 30 Aug 2006</p> Arc International (Durand) has many very similar items. Usually the Libby stems are faintly thicker, otherwise they are almost interchangeable. <hr /><p align="center">Show messages: <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4702.1">All</a>  <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4702.1">1</a>  2-8</p> <h4><a href="lthread_list.php?webtag=EE">Back to thread list</a> | <a href="llogout.php?webtag=EE">Login</a></h4> <h6>© 2024 <a href="http://www.beehiveforum.net/" target="_blank">Project Beehive Forum</a></h6> </body>
