    You're not going to believe this..... 

    But Fire Mountain has 20" 1mm Venetian box sterling chain,
    springring clasp, at about $3.50 at their max discount.....1 piece
    price at about $6.00....their part A20-1240CH... This at $12.00 
market
    silver.... I'm assuming these are imported.....

    That max qauntity for discount used to be 25 items, but they
    recently decided on doing an all assortable for discount
    policy....the max discount now being at 50 items....first break at
    15.... 

    Remember that two sided screw punch folks were talking
    about....they've got it at $13.00....and less with qty discount.... 

    And for some light-hearted stuff....how about...... mood
    rings....<G>....? 10 for $6.00....kiddy stocking stuffers....freebie
    for a customer... 

    How about Sunshine cloths.....or their own version, Moonshine
    cloth....? 

    My point being.....it's not too hard to hit a discount point when
    everything is quantity assortable.... 

    No connection, but have worked with them occasionally....great
    customer service... For their types of items...they can't be 
beat.....
