I think copper should start selling Signal Engineering antennas. I think alot of people are unaware of them. If copper carried them they would get more exposure. What do you think Lon?

Twa77,

Well if there is enough of a demand for any item then Copper is always happy to try and carry that item for the Copper Customers.

The SE Beams are hand made and there is just no profit margin at all when they come from SE for any dealer to carry them.

Also consider that less than 1 in maybe 300 Copper Members use or have ever used Quad Antennas.

And since Copper buys products in Quantity to offer the Lowest Prices to the Copper Customers it would be very expensive to have them sitting on a shelf and no one buying them.

I would guess the Most Important Question would be:

Would enough poeple want them and be willing to pay the difference / higher price over what Copper already has to offer.

What if Copper cut a deal with S.E. to resell but have them drop shipped straight from S.E. instead of stocking them? Then, even if Copper makes $40 or $50 from the deal, it is still worthwhile.

Just a thought. I warn you, I am a poor retailer.

I wouldn't give a dollar more for the S.E. products. Too high.
