Ok. This may seem like a pretty basic question, but I cannot find the answer anywhere. How do I read whole sale quantities. For example, a case quantity of firecrackers is listed as 12-80-16. Another item listed as a "Pro Cracker" is listed as 24-6. And lastly, a case of fountains as 9-4. There are just a few examples. I feel foolish for asking what this means, but since nobody has ever taught me, I suppose it's not surprising that I don't know.

Well, I have found not everyone, but some do it differently than the rest.

But how you have the 12 boxes in a case, 80 boxes in each of the 12 boxes, and 16 individual boxes after that I believe is how that is and the pro cracker is 24 boxes with 6 individual items in each box

Another example. ya buy 1 case of wild west would come like this, 1/12 or 12/1 I have seen it. But since ya will know it is 12 wild west per case, both can be right


Hope that helps, hope didnt confuse more..lol

ummm lol holy crap i got confused by that lol..:confused: But i am assuming that the 12/80/16 is firecrackers. To make it less confusing for you (if it confused you cause it sure as hell confused me lol) there is 12 bricks of 80 packs of 16 firecrackers in each case. Hope that helped lol;)

ok for a 12-80-16 case of firecrackers its gona be you get 12 bricks of 80 packs of firecrackers and each pack has 16 firecrackers. if it is a case of cakes it might say 12/1 that means you get 12 cakes per case. or for shells it might say 12-6-1, that means you get 12 boxes of 6 shells in each box.
