Supplier for retractable banner stand needed

Mary

The prices for retractable banner stands are all over the place on the internet. Some are so cheap, it makes me think my supplier is overcharging me. I want a good stand that won't fail the first time my customer uses it. Can anyone vouch for a wholesaler of retractable banner stands?

Thanks

Tried to order from Orbus and had major nightmares, but they do have nice stands. I will probably give them another try. I have good luck with creative banner.

We sell complete stands with high res graphics, ready to hand to your customer, to the trade for well under $100. In fact, we're less than 4over, better quality, and you can actually get us on the phone, to boot.

Dozens of others I am forgetting...

Orbus will make anybody a dealer if you tell them you are a printer and if you have a regional rep who lives near you - he will probably call on your customers, too. Other than that - they have some nice products.

This is a hard question to answer since every client has different needs and budgets. Just ordered 15 38" stands from Britten. Its called a ScrollSpace, but its not a scrolling stand - go figure - but very nice.

Thanks, I will try some of these companies. I have used Orbus but so pricey, hard to make money on them.

Banner stands isn't something you should be giving away for $150. There is still good money to be made in tradeshow hardware.

I generally give a client a 3-tiered option - good, better, best and sell around what I don't want them to get and 9 out of 10 times I sell them the more costly option because in the long run it will work out better for them and they leave me a happy customer and will refer me to others.

If i take a chance on a $100 banner stand - it MIGHT work okay - but I am not willing to stake my reputation on a POS. Now I also believe that $800 for a banner stand is a little crazy,too.

But - everybody's needs are different.
