ive been offered anything from 10% upto 40% then nothing!!!!!!!:wub:

 

[M D HUGHES]

40% and 35% is pretty good going. Topps do great dicount on adh but the tiles vary hugely. I've had mixed reports from people about different places and getting trade discount, some want loads of proof of work done, letter heads, invoices n all that and some are just very friendly and welcoming and will rip your fingers off for the business. As I said, I've been to certain places and had no problem, introduce myself, tell them I'm looking for a carrot to pull customers in what can you do for me?, others have been and they have had to show alsorts of documentation n stuff. Maybe it depends on the mood of the day?

i phone topp's tile's up on saturday i asked about getting trade discount. I told him i get it from Tile it all at the mo. the lad told me just bring your business card in and i will open one for you it will only take 30sec's.

 

[M D HUGHES]

Yeh topps are pretty good and will do you as good a deal on adh as your getting now. Not sure on the tubs but the Multiflex is a great markup!

 

[Concept PHT]

Topps is pretty pricey here by me in the midlands. Tile Choice is the best for cost at the minute.

 

[Dave-T]

one thing to watch with discounts is the original price. Dont get caught out with a big discount if the price is already way above retail.
I give account customers 30% discount on bal products.
Just out of interest, what do you all pay for white star? I charge around £15 a 10Lt tub for account Customers.

Question for Gaz here........being a Topps Guy.

What ARE the different rates for trade...............is there any difference.

Its just that talking to other bods in different parts of the country........the trade rate does seem to vary?

CJ there are no different rates for discount at Topps.When first opened trade discount as at maximum,the more you trade with us the level will stay up.Hardly trade at all and your discount will diminish,its sort of loyalty structured
