Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes..and save more
May/090
Not to worry, it’s all good. I have just modified the ‘colour & size’ drop down boxes for all socks where there is a colour choice. The drop down box on any given product page now give you the choice of ‘Any Colour’.
Why? Well, I’d get orders in and notice from our own stock we have to order some more in and you guys would have to wait for the socks to arrive. Now, with this new ‘any colour’ option it is more likely that I’d be able to post out your socks sooner – so if you’re really not that concerned about the colour of your sports socks then please choose the ‘Any Colour’ option when choosing your size and colour.
There are actually two advantages for you:
- You could receive your order quicker because I could fulfill orders with different colours
- You actually benefit from the quantity discounts on each sock. Previously, to get the quantity discounts when buying multiple pairs of the same model of sock in the same size you had to choose the same colour. Now you can get the benefit by choosing the Any Colour option.
Have fun
(of course, there is the chance you could receive different colours or all the same colour – it just depends on what is available)
Cheers,
James.
Price Increase and Bigger Quanity Discounts Again
May/090
Good news and Bad news gang.
Bad news first: I have had to raise prices across the board for all X-Socks. This is for two reasons. Firstly, because the UK Distributor has increased prices and secondly because Royal Mail has increased prices too. So, it was a choice of charging postage or increasing prices – at least this way you don’t get any surprises when you get to the checkout (UK customers get free postage).
Good news next: I have increased the discount when buying multiple pairs of the same model / size / colour. Your quantity discounts are now:
Qty Discount
—————-
2 – 4 6.00%
5 – 7 10.00%
8 – 12 12.00%
Also, of course, I have retained the extra discounts when your order totals more than £50 and more than £100:
>£50 and you get another 5% discount
>£100 and you get another 10% discount
All in all “It’s All Good” as they say.
Have Fun.
James.
Price Increase and Bigger Quanity Discounts
Jan/090
Hi Everyone,
So as of January 1st 2009 X-Socks themselves put the prices up on almost all their products and I have to increase too. There isn’t much increase in percentage terms but it is enough for me to offer you greater quantity discounts:
You now get these discounts when buying the same size and colour of a sock:
2 – 4 pairs you get 5% discount (extra 2%)
5 – 7 pairs you get 8% discount (extra 3 %)
8 – 12 pairs you get 12% discount (extra 2%)
While I am sorry to have to increase the prices for 1 pair I am happy to offer you greater quantity discounts.
There will also shortly be some new sock models arriving – so stay tuned for those.
Have Fun.
James.
