Looking for this Crystal Award

[Martin Boekers]

I am looking for a wholesaler of this item.

Thanks!

I tried a TinEye search, but it doesn't seem to work in Sawmill.
All it finds is the SMC logos, not the image you're actually searching for

Found One with Gold Base

[Martin Boekers]

Thanks Mark, It looks like these guys are an ASI supplier. I checked out their webpage,
no contact info?! They have an email response but only is you have an ASI number?
It does amaze me sometimes how these companies stay in business without a way of contact.
I have run into this numerous times. If they don't want you to call fine but have a way to contact
them or request and registration application. When I get a chance I search the net and find a
number. I dii quote the job with a similar gold model from another vendor.


Chuck, thanks for the help, I did a search on the file name of the photo I had and found numerous
retail vendors with the same web design, but not the manufaturer. It looks like it is Award Craft.
They ain't easy to get a hold of though! :)

They tried pretty hard to hide it, but I found one 800 number at the bottom of a page (http://www.visionsawardcraft.com/visionsawards/distributorservices/e-marketingtools.aspx) on their site: 800 730.8727

Thanks! I just got an email from them, their response was they only seel to distributers.
I explained that I am a reseller with TAX ID's I belong to Distributer's Central, but not
ASI or PPAI as I feel they charge too much for there services. So we will see what their
response to that is....

You have better eyes than me! :) I spent about 5min looking for that number, even on
the site map.

Thanks!

Chuck, thanks for the help, I did a search on the file name of the photo

Ah.. TinEye is like a search engine for images. It doesn't go by file name, you search
on the image itself. But for some reason it didn't work within SMC. Good plugin to
have for your browser, especially if you want to see if other people are stealing (and using)
photos of your own work

I'll add it to my browser. I do find many times that if I pull up the photo many keep the file name of the
manufacture with it. That has helped me out so many times. I wish there was a search engine that narrowed
your search to manufacturers and wholesalers. Must retailers have that is their keywords, so it makes it difficult
sometimes to find where the product originates from!

You used to be able to use boolean strings in Google, but now it ignores that and gives
you what Google decides you really want. Even in the advanced search. You could use a
"-" sign to exclude things you don't want .. but now they still show up. Putting things
in quotes used to allow you to specify only certain spellings (or deliberate mis-spellings
such as a brand name) but now it gives you everything it wants to. Partially based on
the info about you that Google stores. Different people get different results with the same
search criteria.

Capability is built into the web already, but the only people who seem to use it are the porn
spammers who manage to get into your search results no matter what you look for.

They will sell to you.

I think they will, I haven't had issues with other ASI providers before. They
just want to be sure they aren't selling to the end user.

I emailed them and got a response from sale, but I think it was generated, as then
needed and ASI or PPAI number to send so I just filled the space with numbers :) I
got a response saying they would direct me to a local dist as they don't sell to end users,
I emailed back explaining my situation but got an out of office reply :).

I quoted my client for a similar product as their time frame may not be met by the time
I go through these guys.

I used to have one of their catalogs arounsd as they do have some nice products.
