I'm new to buying wholesale when is the best time of year to purchase? Typically when do the warehouses restock? I see that So76 has 45% off on limited items now but will there be a point at which there is a sale on everything? Doesn't have to be So76 any info helps, I wanna double up on last years purchase about 1000 dollars. I need more!

Seems to me sometime in August is when wholesale places try to get rid of last years stock. Some give discounts around that time frame.

Another good time is Jan thru May.

I bought mine online for the first time this year from Wfboom.I bought them in Feb by the case and saved 40%.They have different tiers(buy by certain date,money spent etc)Really a great bunch of people to work with!

As a rule of thumb you're never going to be late if you're ready to buy in January.

well, the earlier the better. but you may have substitutions in your order (but they will be of equal or greater value than the item it's replacing) and i know spirit of 76 is a great place to go. i've ordered from them a long while ago. i asked that guy several questions a day for like 8 months (i'm very cautious, usually. lol). he was very patient and even e-mailed me a couple times to see how i liked the fireworks i got. (hadn't lit any of them at that time though. was saving them for the fourth)

spirit of 76 has tier pricing, too. anyone ordering $500 up to $1,999 gets silver pricing. $2,000 dollars or more gets you gold pricing.(but if memory serves a employee of spirit of 76 posted a message that said all you have to do is type in "PYROTALK" into the promotion slot and you'll get the gold price list for any purchase $500 or more.( if they're still doing that) oh, and to get special order pricing you have to spend 5K or more, for special order pricing you have to place your order before the end of jan. they also give discounts on all orders placed by a certain date, for paying order in full by a certain date, having them ship it out before a certain date. and volume discounts as well.

big fireworks is another good place to check out. i've ordered from them too. only thing is they mostly carry their own brand, but they've got some pretty cool stuff, imo.

Now that's interesting. Does anyone know if this is still available? Also how much more is the gold discount compared to the silver?

I do believe the SO76 offer still applies for PyroTalk members. In saying that, wfboom is an amazing outfit both with quality and product as well as customer service. One of the best customer service oriented companies I have ever worked with fireworks related or otherwise. They make you feel like you are important and will help you with anything. You dont get that much in business these days so its quite nice.
