Hum... although timing is a bit rough for this year understandably, but
why the limit on purchase price? Can't you mark them up at the same
ratio and have different prices per bulb?

She actually did try to make it later (but not for this reason) and I
said
absolutely not.
Speaking of the bulb sale. Another woman is trying to 'help' me. She
wants
to split an order of Orienpet Lilies from Lily Garden. They'll quote
her 
a
quantity price.  Unfortunately the retail prices on these items run
between
$12.50 and $30.00 each bulb, so I can't see even the qty prices being
within
my reach .  I can't pay more than $2.00 for them and be able to sell
them
at
a profit. I also explained I'd have to have them by Oct 2. She seems
to
think that's not a problem. I don't see that happening.
