Why do you have a "Why?" page on your web site?
Our "Why?" page attempts to explain why we do things the way we do. (And a surprising number of people wonder about these things.)
Why do you display John 3:16 and the three crosses on your web site?
The short answer is because we are Christians, and the three crosses represent what we believe Jesus Christ did for us when He died on one of those crosses for our sins. John 3:16 reminds us of what God did for us through His Son Jesus Christ.
Why do you sell your products for less than other stores?
There are several reasons we can sell for less. First, we generally buy only overstock or closeout merchandise. That means that the quantities we have in stock can vary widely, and change quickly. If a product sells out, we might not be able to get any more of that item, especially at the same price. Second, we try to buy in large quantities, if possible. Because of that, we can pass the savings on to our customers. Third, we keep our overhead extremely low. We don't build gigantic new office buildings, do a lot of advertising, drive fancy cars, or spend a lot of money on lavish living.
Why do you sell such a wide variety of products?
The biggest reason is that the owner of the company is a pack rat. He never likes to throw anything away, and he takes an interest in all types of technology. Over the years, he has worked on all types of electronics equipment, including radios, stereo equipment, televisions, RF gear, cable television equipment, broadcast equipment, computers, etc. If it is electronic, he probably has some experience with it.
Why do you sell non-electronic or computer products?
The short answer is because the owner of the company is a pack rat. However, families and businesses of all sizes tend to accumulate things. (Whether they want to, or not.) In our particular case, after being in business for over 30 years, operating out of six different business locations, and living in six different houses, we have a lot of things that are just not central to what we do. Because we also take excellent care of our property, these items are in saleable condition. Instead of throwing things out, we prefer to sell them, and let somebody else get some use out of them at a discounted price.
Why do you sell geothermal valves?
Our business is heated and cooled with geothermal energy, and we do most of our own maintenance on the system. So, we try to get the best deals we can on valves and other repair parts. When we have more stock than we can use, we sell the excess on our web store.
Why do you sell Panduit?
In a word, quality. The owner of the company started out doing network installations many years ago, and found that the overall quality of Panduit tools, raceway, and network jacks was exceptionally high. Because of his positive experience with Panduit products over the span of many years, it was logical to sell those same products to customers that were in the same business that he was. In addition, he had boxes and boxes of items left over from his installation business.
Why do you sell HP ProCurve?
The lifetime warranty (without requiring service contracts) was the main factor in choosing HP ProCurve, in addition to reasonable prices and fairly frequent firmware updates.
