WHAT DOES A CUT PRICE COVER? 
A customer whom we had supplied for many years was 
enticed away by what seemed to be very much bigger promises 
than we could possibly meet. 
After the one break-away he was frank enough to relate his 
experience. The actual number of bulbs and the quoted price 
appeared correctly on the invoice. But there were many things 
the invoice did not show, the most disappointing of which was 
that the bulbs did not bring the expected quality of blooms. 
The so-called "saving" on import cost was wiped out by sales 
loss and aggravation on the finished product. 
He is not likely to be again misled by verbal promises on his 
basic need.
