I called the Home office at Dacco/Detroit today and I don't have any good
news.
They confirmed that none of the stores have the ability it use plastic (
most of their sales are wholesale ). Also they didn't seem to have the time
to get with all the stores and work something out on a set price. ( boy you
would think that they would be willing to help a guy out that slaved his
Butt off for them for 10 years, but that the breaks if guess).
I guess the thing to do is to contact the outlet nearest to each of us and
mention the price and see what they say. That price is a current price in
their price sheets. I would say that most of them would be willing to go
that cheap.
If this doesn't work for every one maybe going with Transgo direct may be
the only other way.
I do know of one other place that may do us a good deal, they are out of
Pittsburgh PA. i will have to find the #.
Sorry I tried!!!!!
