Sound like by the description some single shot, maybe some mine or fountain effects...

I see they are out right now of the M-25 and M-225 I think it was...Wonder when they will be in

I called Bigs today and they have no idea when they are getting the tannerite cakes in stock. They also stated that you must have proper paper work to buy these cakes.

Well, not worried about the proper paper work aspect... just them getting them in stock for that price..lol

Ok, I bought from them last year and was very pleased by every item I got. So i have a question, I currently don't have my type 54 yet, but will as soon as I possibly can, if I don't have it in time for this 4th what other paperwork could I show proving my proficiency with fireworks?

Does anyone know the official wholesale starting point for bigs? Their website has both $1000 and $3000 as minimums for wholesale. I would like to buy from bigs, but I don't plan on spending $3000.

Also, does anyone have any other wholesalers to recommend? I'm looking at Spirit of 76 right now because they are running some specials on shipping... just figured i'd ask. You can private message me since they are not advertisers...

Well, When i talked with them i was told the minimum was $1000

Would you mind me asking when you spoke to them? I seem to get a different answer from everyone, including them! haha

I have heard that they have changed their wholesale policy in the last couple years making it tougher to get premium wholesale pricing. I could see if nothing else an increase in minimum purchase from $1000 to $3000. This is just a rumor that I have heard no rock solid proof.

Lets face it if your offering some of the best 1.4g on the market you can name your price and set your rules.

I would talk to wholesale fireworks/wfboom.com and see what they can do for you. 40% off wholesale in February.

You can't go wrong with 40% off wholesale.

They have good stuff, so do lots of other places.
I know of several wholesalers besides bigs that have raised minimums for wholesale and /or changed their pricing to discount levels.
Its a common model for a start-up. Offer great pricing to grow the business and get your name out there.
After the business is well established then you can start charging a bit more.

Great responses guys. I actually spoke to Scott from Bigs today. They are doing a demo at their new warehouse in S.C. this April, which is only a few hours from me. I was hoping that I could purchase by the case while I was there. So, I asked Scott and he said, yes. But he did inform me that the starting price for a new wholesale customer would be $3000, even if you go to the demo. I guess I'll have to wait to purchase wholesale from bigs. I just don't have a budget for that. On the other hand, I gave WFboom a look. Let's just say I will love taking advantage of their 40% off sale. What a great deal! I've never used their product before, but much of it looks like high quality stuff.

If like the video of a given cake from wfboom you won't be disappointed we what you get. A lot of the time the video's do not do their product justice.
