Title: Walter T. Kelley Newsletter, Shipping Sale
Post by: winginit on October 07, 2010, 09:00:43 am
Latest Walter T. Kelley Newsletter cites Michael Bush, also advertises free shipping through Zone 4 on Nov 22, 23, and 24 (10% off past zone 4.

Interesting article on overwintering bees, too.

Great issue.   I like those foundationless frames.

although I generally like Kelley's product and have bought quite a bit of their products over the years... their sale last year with free or discounted shipping proved to be less than half the value stated in their ABJ advertisement.

What was half the value, the shipping? Or did they raise prices?

their advertisement (last year) said beyond zone ? (4 I think) they would pay for 10% of the shipping.  when I looked over the bill it was something like 4.5% and not 10%.  the 5 $ bill difference will not keep me from using their product in the future.

Same ad this year (see page 15). They've updated their web site, it looks very nice. I tried to get a new password and it sent me into an infinite loop.
