Grimco Buys GSG

[d fleming]

Worst thing that happened to my business this year was grimeco bought tubelite. Had a decades long history with them and it is toast. Instantly service and deliveries were gone and They wanted to use my credit card again. They have a terrible history of bookkeeping and accounting. No way I let them use my cerdit or debit to my account again, ever. I now drive and hour+ one way for substrates as it is cheaper than ordering from them and it doesn't show up destroyed. Hell as it is now if I need ink carts they come from 6 different directions with shipping ($30) for each cart. Fellers has a 5 item order from me now. Coming from 4 locations. Glad I'm retiring soon. The fishies are callin"

As a Grimco customer and former GSG customer, I believe that buying GSG was the right move. After years of moderate to poor service from my local GSG warehouse, we have switched almost exclusively to Grimco and have experienced great customer service and sales support from Grimco. I'm sure other GSG locations do better by their customers, but my local branch just didn't do even the basics to keep me as a customer.

Wait, did they actually buy gsg, or is this a thought experiment?

Nope they are integrating them into Grimco. Switched a lot of my business from Grimco to GSG over the past year plus.

For me Grimco service had sucked, delivery is poor. Pricing vs GSG was higher. So now I can’t wait for my pricing to go up not to mention the expected increases from the manufacturers.

Yeah, this is the worst part, just cause you get to know these guys when they're dropping off stuff. My driver just had a baby, last time I saw him, thursday or friday last week, he seemed bummed, but I neglected to see what was up. Something tells me he got the news. I wonder if he's on the block, one of the reps said they wouldn't be changing anything for a year, maybe they meant this year?
