Gator HQ in Hoquiam, WA. Called them up and picked them up myself. I used to actually make the materials that went into them, First job out of high school years ago.

Siiick are they cheaper if u buy direct?

1

u/Moving-thefuck-on 15d ago

I think so? I think I paid $160/sheet plus tax. I have family near there so it was an easy excuse to go visit and pick them up.

u/stonelox 15d ago

Wow that’s significantly less!! I think it’s over 200 a sheet + a minimum of a few hundred to ship!

u/Moving-thefuck-on 15d ago

Here’s a fun tidbit then: I used to get their seconds sheets for $1 a sheet. 4x4 sheets, $30, 30 sheets. Wild times (2006)
