Do I have to order lots of buckles from you? |
| |
TThe best price is available if you order 25 or more pieces. However, since everything is custom, we can make any quantity - larger or smaller. All the way from 1 to many thousand of the same design. To get the best price on a smaller order - just get some people together from your company, club, organization, group or a bunch of friends and you will be all set. |
