Joined Direct Buy after talking to "sales" person. At the time I was looking to improve my deck, and the person told me that local purchases, they have deals with local vendors vs the large manufactureres, i.e., furniture etc.

Was told I should realize minimally 25% less. Given the cost I already had quoted, it was a no brainier as the " membership" cost was about the savings. Well, as it turns out, the savings were no more then the difference of contractors cost which was less then 10%, and since my contractor already applied their savings to my job, there was no savings. Since I was already a member, I used my membership for other purchases.

Problem is, anything I have purchased could have easily been purchased on line cheaper....when you buy on line, the majority of time, you don't pay taxes, and some cases no delivery costs. With direct buy you always ay taxes because you "club" is in your state, pay delivery, and an extra handling fee. Plus for most products you need to pick up at the club, which s really inconvenient, or you pay an extra delivery fee to someone works at the club.

All-in-all, Direct Buy....to me....has been a total waste of time, and a cost losing proposition. Join with great caution.

Hi Happy. What city are you in?

These clubs are all over North America. Thanks.

Thanks for the info. I always wondered about this place.

I remember back when I listened to Glenn Beck on the radio he was pitching Direct Buy. Of course, that was before he went off the deep end.
