You can always count on us for fair prices & great deals. If you find a better deal, just let us know and we’ll match it!
We may be small but we think big! We are always on the lookout for great deals to pass on to you but we won’t compromise on quality or list things with inflated prices just to “pretend” to give you a huge discount. If you find a better price on the exact same item from a reputable source at the time of purchase or during the exchange period, let us know and we’ll match it (see details below).
We carefully select the products we carry and value the partners who create them. Many of our manufacturers have created pricing policies to protect all parties involved from producers of raw materials all the way to the end consumer. Examples of these policies are MAP (Minimum Advertised Price), MSRP (Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price) and RRP (Recommended Retail Price). These policies create a level playing field for all businesses big and small, physical and virtual. They establish and enforce a price that takes into account all of the costs required for making, selling and supporting quality products (such as investing in quality materials, fair labor practices, rigid quality control, sustainability efforts, retailer education and support, high levels of customer service). All these efforts are designed to protect the integrity of the brand and the retailer. and to provide the consumer with the best experience and the best products.
Being a responsible retailer and following pricing guidelines doesn’t mean you can’t also get great values and great deals. At the end of each season, we review our inventory and work with our brands to maximize the discounts for you.
