I'm sorry OZZ that you feel the way you do. I pay close to $1000 a year for the privilege to be able to post on here.Your here at zero cost Do you think CGN lets dealers on here for free?
I'm trying to do the best I can, to keep all of you up to date with any information about the product lines we represent. This has been well over a year since we began talks with Kel-Tec, starting in October 2009. Its been a long hard road to get things to where they are at this point. I'm very proud that we've made it this far and were able to bring these firearms to you that really care. Two months ago after the many rejected export applications by the U.S. Department Of State, Kel-Tec was going to pull the plug on the deal.
I'm not getting rich on this deal guys, I wish I was. Its all about the long term here for myself and Vault Distribution.
The price issue I will explain in a very elementary school way. This is not meant to offend anyone.
Every company in business that manufactures and sells their products has distributor pricing. Most companies offer discounts on the quantity you purchase from them. 0 to 50 one price, 50 to 100 another price and 1000 to 5000 a greater discount. The bottom line, the more you buy the better deal you get.
Vault Distribution had to commit to close to $100,000 USD in guns from Kel-Tec to get the prices we have now. Plus financial commitments for double that within next year so that Kel-Tec would even consider the Canadian market. I had to re finance my house to come up with the investment capital.
Do you really think Kel-Tec needs to export their guns to Canada? The RFB-C has been nothing but a huge hassle to them, and it costs more money to produce than the U.S.model. They have to re tool every time they manufacture the Canadian version. Time and money in the manufacturing world.The moral of the story is, when our price comes down we will extend this along to our dealers and then to you. We are already looking at a major purchase of Sub2000's for next year. This will drop the price if we do. Oh.. to add, the RFB is the only Kel-Tec product with zero volume discounts, oh I tried, I'm lucky to get any at all with all the majors in the U.S. clambering for them.
Very soon Vault will be launching our own forum connected to the Vault Distribution website. This forum will have an area exclusively focused on Kel-Tec products, like KTOG in the states. Kel-Tec thought it was a great idea. When the forum is ready to go, Vault will be giving away some free Kel-Tec merchandise. I will let you all know.
In future if anybody has any questions, Pm me or send me an email.
Thanks again for all your support guys
