Fuel Surcharge & volume discounts:
Due to the all-time high fuel costs, our inbound and outbound freight is costing us twice as much as it did a year ago. UPS is currently charging us $1.75 per box in addition to their listed rates as a 'fuel surcharge'. Although UPS has been charging these additional fees, we have not passed them on to you, nor have we been charging a 'fuel surcharge' to each order to pay the additional costs of our inbound freight. Because our overall pricing is already lower than the competition, we can no longer absorb these fees and we can no longer give the additional volume discounts that Firefox alone has been giving to club members and on volume orders. It makes no sense to give a discount, then charge it back to cover the fuel surcharges that everyone is now charging additionally. Be of good cheer, these ridiculous fuel costs are bound to come down sooner or later, right? In the meantime, we are still lower on our prices overall and we still give our normal volume discounts on items throughout the catalog like chemicals, paper supplies, plastics, ignition supplies, etc.. There are volume price breaks on items throughout the catalog as listed. The more you order, the better the price. Feel free to ask us about pricing on full drums and cases of product. We can often discount on these items because we have less labor and packaging tied up in it.
To avoid increasing our prices overall 12 to 15% to cover these additional costs, we have worked out a fuel surcharge that is less expensive for everyone and will be added to each order as listed below. Please include these charges when figuring your shipping.
