From Mike:

Reps: Please email me asap your ribbon request for Dual Meet Ribbons. Over the years we have kept the cost down for the teams because I bulk order usually. However, I decided I needed to check on the cost as of this season and the costs per groups of ribbons have gone up. The league charges $54 per place for 300 Ribbons. Total $324 for 300 ribbons per 6 places. We need to vote yes or no to raise the fee from $324 to $330. Or $55 for 300 ribbons per place. This is a .02 raise per ribbon. We don't really profit on ribbon purchases. We are just trying to keep the cost down for the teams. We were paying 1.08 cent per ribbon. Now we will pay 1.1 cent per ribbon. For example if your team had to buy 300 ribbons per each place or 1800 ribbons total, it would cost you .31cents or a cost of $558. Whereas you will only be paying $360 for 1800 ribbons. Because each year we buy for 22 teams and keep an inventory, we get a discount and able to save you for a cost of $198. Let me know what you need asap.Thanks.
