KrisS Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 I'd been using the Peak clamshells, but I'm becoming increasingly frustrated with them being out of stock on everything. Has anyone used Fillmore's? How do they compare? $250 for 850 pieces at Peak vs. $112 for 700 pieces at Fillmore. (Plus shipping) Obviously, if I buy from Fillmore, I'd get a sample pack first. Just checking for your experiences. Thoughts? Input? Other suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kandlekrazy Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Well direct from Impact they are $140/cs of 850 but you have to buy 2 cases min. They are quality clamshells. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfroberts Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 I've been buying from Maple Street when they have them on sale. Right now they are $99 for 700, plus shipping. I've had no problem with quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrisS Posted May 29, 2017 Author Share Posted May 29, 2017 (edited) Thank you both. I'm not quite production ready, so Impact is a little much on the quantity--bummer, as I've heard great things about them. Maple Street is going to be very, very expensive. I've been been wanting to try a few FO samples...and this just sounds like a great excuse!! Ugh. $56 for shipping the clamshells. Maybe that isn't a good excuse.

They may only ship USPS, and if you are on the west coast....yeah. That's a lot. BUT the good news is, they do a flat rate shipping ($8 I think) for any amount of fragrances, so you could still try a few. I've tried several. I only had one I didn't care for, not that it was bad, just kinda one dimensional. I do use their Vanilla Tobacco and Salted Caramel.

barbaranj Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 I have been using Fillmore. No problems here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wgregww Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 (edited) I buy about 10,000 a year from Fillmore, no problems. I just haven't gotten around to buying from Impact. Maple's are the exact same, their issue is they play with the price which drives me nuts. The real question I want to know is were in the heck does Fillmore buy from? I cant believe they get that much of a discount buying in bulk from Impact. They bothe sell them for .16 each Edited June 6, 2017 by wgregww Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wgregww Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 I can actually get them from Canada for .13, when my son goes and visits he brings me back a case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They bothe sell them for .16 each I got a quote once from Impact on getting more than 26,000 clams and if I remember correctly it was .09 or .10 ea. I'm sure the big suppliers buy at least that many and since they place many orders a year probably get a break for that as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
