All I gotta say is Honeyboy, there are other good ceramic grill companies out there that actually answer their phone. If ya like tile, there's even another tiled ceramic grill company out there. But if you like your friends, don't send them to Kamado, I lost a friend that way. Except mine was worst than yours, he actually bought one, it cracked, and then they started ignoring him.

Richard....OK......we are well into the new year and still no info on coal. What's up?
I convinced my friend to buy a #7 for her husband for his birthday. She wrote your company and no one returned her mail with order info. SOMETHING is very wrong at Kamado!! Not returning calls of customers who own K's are one thing but not returning contacts of folks who want to buy them is quite another thing................Lost that sale as the lack of communication convinced her to buy him a high end espresso machine instead..........Richard.....are you listening???? |

Oh yeah...more of the same....another broken promise and another customer lost because they can't bother to return a contact. You know January must be slow when their complaints even slow down!  |

That got out some koolaid real fast for Honeyboy. They wouldn't want to lose a sale just because they can't fill the order.

Honeyboy,
The new prices have just been posted to the forum, click here for the announcement. |
Here is the announcement of the new prices.
Admin wrote: | March 1st, 2007 Kamado Charcoal Prices
Our price for Kamado Extruded Coconut Charcoal (KEC) and Kamado Tamarind Lump (K Lump) is $7.99 per box fob San Diego. This is our lowest wholesale price and a price that will allow a fair retail price throughout the USA, even after shipping costs ARE included. Our volume of shipping has given us excellent shipping discounts, which we in turn are all passed on to our customers. The key to savings is in the total pallet weight or number of boxes shipped. It gets very expensive to ship less than 15 boxes, but less expensive to ship 30 boxes, with a very good rate over 60 boxes per pallet and an excellent rate over 90 boxes. Our office can obtain shipping costs online and provide you with shipping and total costs by email. We sometimes have to obtain the best rates from more than one freight carrier and for this reason it is best to obtain this time consuming information by email rather than tying up your (and our) telephone lines. We look forward to providing shipping quotes, helping organize customer consolidation of pallet orders and working with “Charcoal Kaptains”.
Prices are subject to change without notice anytime before order is received. |
Now isn't that funny wording that the price can change anytime before the order is received? Does that mean when someone places the order the price is frozen at the current rate? Or does that mean they could change the price after they ship the order but before the customer receives the order? Inquiring minds want to know!!! _________________ http://www.nerka-naknek.net.ms |

I guess they are required to pay before receiving the order, and then after it's shipped if RJ calls and says he's upped the price...and they actually send more money
Well, all I gotta say about them folks is, cut back on the koolaide  |

Charcoal futures? |
|
|
|
Sounds like RJ is selling futures in his own little market.
If he doesnt have enough cash for a new bottle of tecate, he just makes a margin call to his charcoal base. |
