I tried to tell my wife there’s no difference from 4” to 6” she rolled her eyes at me.
Firework shells are measured by diameter, not length. Every canister shell shown in the video, as he mentioned, are 1 3/4" shells.
Firework stores are a work of art
I remember when they first started advertising the 5 inch shells the 6 inch shells 7 inch shells. I remember when it was just 4 inch shells and they still had hollow space. It is a gimmick like you say and I’m glad that there is people out there that are willing to be honest and tell the customers about this because, all that wasted space that expense is thrown onto the customer when fireworks remember this expensive
My number 1 mistake is paying more than 90 for a 24 pack...never doing that again
Only for OLS
@@detonationpyrotechnics4156 I pay 80 for ols
Wholesale for ever!!
@@CurtisMishleauI know that’s right.
I paid 150 for Excaliburs lol
I went to a tent that Advertised 50% off. but when you check the price from the makers or other distributors its the same price as the 50% off price. they just doubled the "original" price. I still bought it cause its the only place that had what i was lookin for but I would rather they be genuine and just sell regular price and i still buy and trust them than have them advertise its 50% off and not get my trust. A customer that trusts you will come back.
Another great, informational video. Superb tips! Everyone needs to watch this.
Every year me and my neighbors go have we always spend about $6000 and feel like we not get our moneys worth. This could be the reason why it always feels good when they tell you buy one get one free.
You guys should go the whole sale route anything over 1000 dollars spent is whole sale anything over 3k or 4 k will be free shipping also buying by the pallet you will get 3x the fireworks
@@bradbadder do you have the website?
Same. I'm spending around $8,000 to $9,000 for my 2 kids but would always like to get better value.
Buy the box not single is alote more 150 for 24shells get box. Price drops cause get 4x. Cheaper in free shipping. Low tax. 300.00 box
@@soowoonj check out American wholesale
Store Looks Fantastic
Just buy your fireworks online and get them by the case lol. Way cheaper
What site?
by law.. for Class C aerial canisters can only hold so much powder in each canister, the longer length ones prolly have some special effect stuff in there that need more space but the end result is the weight. If you want to get larger ones then you need a Class B Pyro Lic... then you can get the real stuff.. but Class C is Class C... The Firework Companies are making a illusion of making you think your getting bigger ones than last year but your still getting the same..Its all Marketing like anything else, make it look like your getting a better deal but your not.
I actually had a pretty good deal opening consumer day this year. It was buy one get one free on excal platinum. I paid 80 for one and actually got another completely free. Everyone in the store had 2 of them in their cart😂
$80 for two Excal kits is definitely worth it.
Y’all need more locations…..🤔….asap
I've been binge watching all of your videos!! Can't wait to buy fireworks from yall for the first time!!
Thank you for watching, appreciate it!
Dude I have too! They have a $1000 in store give away. You should try to win! I did! I've sent the contest to many people as well.
I will say one thing I've noticed most major wholesale companies offer between 20-40% off cases after New Years. Not so much BOBO but I remember superior had 30% off a good selection and WFboom does 40% off the entire inventory at the beginning of the year. Hoping you guys get the sales volume to make such sales so I can get even more. 😁
On a side note yall need to sell an Elite shirt that says 60 Grams is 60 Grams.
It sounds like you are asking if they will sell a case of their Hydra Bombs, for example, for $160 or as low as $120. The current price of $200 for a case already seems like a really good deal.
First, i love your store, went a few weeks ago and loved the prices and excellent customer service! I do wish these videos could be a little shorter in length, theyd be easier to routinely watch
Thank you for helping to expose the 5 inch, 6 inch, and 7 inch artillery shell marketing ploy. If there are any companies out there selling shells that have over 60 grams of composition they are highly illegal. Here's the challenge I always put forward to people ... Fire 12 four inch shells in your yard then see how many pieces of cardboard you find on the ground. Then do the same thing progressively with 5, 6, and 7 inch shells. What you'll find are larger and larger pieces of cardboard laying on the ground as the shells increase in size.
i have not even upgraded to 6 in. because 5 inch (the good ones) are more than enough most are way better than 6in. for example grand jury and echo in the ear are 5 inches but out perform most 6 inch.
@@workforcefreebee4406 I'll freely admit to purchasing 5 inch shells, but 6 & 7 ?? No thanks. Speaking of Echo in the Ear, I'm due to have two 6 pack kits and a case of Pulse Pounder by Winda delivered tomorrow (Thurs). 👍💥
The Beloved Excaliburs that everyone Misses were OL, it's the Reason everyone Loved them, illegal means a Beurcrat does not approve, just like the Founding Father's strived For
@@ReneeNmei got a mix of 5 and 6 just to see if i notice a difference. If i dont, ill save a sh*t load next time. It only works out to like $1 more per shot but that adds up over hundreds of canisters
Man you guys need to open a store in Tulsa Oklahoma please! Haha, best prices I've seen so far
I'm sure there's a place there with similar prices, oklahoma has some good mom and pop shops just gotta shop around and do research
Master 100 6inch is the best shell I have shot. I have shot close to 70 different brands of canister shell
I feel canisters are overpriced, not to mention the clean up, I prefer repeater cakes, Less clean up and setup time, just me but to each their own.
Many folks do not understand the quality and value of 200 grams cakes. Often, two different 200 cakes are better than most 500 gram
@@chrisboyd1408man I completely agree. I’ve said this for years I can buy 4-6 200G cakes for what a cheap 500G cakes cost and last longer and and still give you decent show for the bucks.
A fireworks stand or store mark up the product at 200 to 300% for the item. I stopped buying from the stands or stores. I buy my fireworks at wholesale and I get about 20% more for my money.
How and where??? Thank you!!! 😊
Miracle makes some damn good shells. Miracle Baddah Bang, Ultimate Hero and Max Explosion shells. Those I just said are fantastic
Man I love looking at that row of shells!!! Man getting 50+ more kits coming? You are going to keep me busy for awhile! I hate the trend of 6+ inch shells.... Hate it...
I believe the total at the Texas store is around 155 different kits.
Valmir FYI I’ll be in touch by tomorrow and by the way the store looks amazing all those shell kits it’s like a kid in a candy store and you’re absolutely right about the gimmick in a marketing scheme seven and shell when it’s really regulated 60 g great video bro trying to sell Pyro‘s. That may not know the deal
You’re totally right about excaliburs. But they used to be better. Just everyone knows the name
Please pin for general consumers that might not watch the full video!
General Mistakes:
5. Falling for the BOGO/BOG2 Gimmick
4. Not taking advantage of stores that offer a bulk discount (buying a case of one item to reduce the per item cost)
3. Always buying the same item and not testing out other options (ex: only buying Excalibur canister shells)
More Canister Shell Specific Mistakes:
2. Not stepping up your game (ex: only lighting off 1-2 at a time and not investing in a mortar rack if you are buying the 24 packs of canister shells)
1. Buying into the "A bigger shell is a better shell" marketing and being upsold on longer shells. 60g is the max load and the shell length (4", 5", etc.) isn't a big factor necessarily. What's more important is what is inside the shell
This was EXCELLENT!!! Thank you!😎👍
Located in Florida, heavy phantom influence in my area. Just learned about buying wholesale, but any recommendations on where to buy from? Really wanting to get more for my money, tired of the phantom bs
He’s right I run a stand and I don’t use the BOGO absurd pricing I try to be fair and give % off the more you spend so you can mix and match shells and cakes and offer 25% off total sale on the day of the fourth regardless of the amount spent. There are a lot of sellers out there who just want your money I used to shop elite. They have awesome deals and about the best customer service out there you’ll find.
Can you buy the cases without wholesale at your store?
Yes
Where can I buy replacement 4 inch canister shells( no mortor tube )
They are selling A box of 24 artillery shells for $259 to $320 where I live 😂 that's insane and robbery .
Sounds like phantom. They charge around 259 in Tampa
New game take a drink every time he says guys
Where in New Hampshire are you located?
Elite of NH is 68 NH-101A Amherst, NH 03031.
True on the canister shells it's not the size of it that matters it's what's inside you can have a 3 inch perform better than a 7 inch shell
so theres hope for me is what your saying
Phantom hates your guts right now. I don’t know how they sleep at night charging 250$ for a 24 canister pack.
I like the black Mamba
You recommend people to buy racks of tubes in a cube scenario where inevitably they have to reach over a two to fire the other two you should only be selling racks that are in a straight line my number one rule as a shooter is never reach over to whether it be on a cake whether it's on a rack and whether it's empty or not
The fuse them together and only light once!
a lot of stores use the word whole sale to much becuse a lots not whole sale
Remember, no matter how good the deal is, the store always makes a profit. They have too
Yeah. Best thing you can do for yourself is just make more money and some of these prices won’t mean nothing to your bank account.
@@Jakob_23 indeed 😆
💯
If you walk into a store selling a consumer 24 kit for over $100, just walk out and find another store!
I just picked up one for $50. is that good
I fell into the phantom trap then found a wholesale store close by now I pretty much only buy by the case unless there's something I want that they don't offer by the case!
But if you become a “Premium” member like me it get 50% OFF 😮. I wish I knew better a couple months ago 🤦♂️
@BigClaunch yeah I get the 50 percent off at phantom and wholesale still saves me money over phantom premium
Even if you hit the “buy 1 get 2 free” coupon is 90$ on one of their 24 packs. They charge like 259$ for 1.
@@Kevinw4040 buying wholesale if you get cases of 4 you get them cheaper sometimes you get them around 80 per 24 sometimes cheaper
Tooo much jabbering, this video could've been 5 mins long
I agree
I liked the video and learned plus he spent the time to make a video, edit it and upload it. More than I can say.
I used to go to phantom...... Never again. Buy 2 get one free🤔. One case for $200. Gtfoh. $90 for the same Case different store.
That was me but last year when i finally grasped how bad it was. Only ever went twice but the first time was before the economy got tanked (aka WAY cheaper under the Orange Don 😂) so you didnt notice it as bad.
With everything so crazy, might as well get the best deal possible and for 90% of us that means order online, as much as it sucks not having the awesome feeling of going to the store
@@oldkingcrow777 I live in NYC. Can't order. I drive to Pennsylvania
I’ll say it again as I did months ago;.. Elite is one of the very few companies who are honest & upfront with their customers,
and don’t try to play on the sales gimmicks.. 60 grams is 60 grams, save the empty cardboard, and save your wallet! Elite, I can’t wait until you guys offer online buying options!
What aggravates me is that there are RUclipsrs (no names mentioned) uploading videos where they dissect shells over 4 inches and claim that there's 120+ grams of composition in them. They're lying.
@@ReneeNme amen! (Long rant here). I think it’s totally ridiculous as well!.. If you were to take an overwhelming majority of brands/kits off the shelf to dissent them, they will not exceed the 60 gram limit. There’s always one that pops up every now n then that exceeds the limit. I’ll go ahead n call a couple out because the word is already well out there, and has been flooding the Internet forums. By now, you bet the govt regulators are already well-aware unfortunately.. so trolls, plz skip my comment, the big word is unfortunately already out without my one comment here.. As saying, This year was the Master Shells; Besides dissecting, anyone who shot these know that it had to likely exceed the limit; the boom, the break, etc..A few Years before that, we had the Death Shells; If you saved some Death Shells from then, and compare it to a kit bought this year, there’s no comparison. The 60 grams was well-exceeded for that season.
-Because of RUclipsrs, dissectors, and just internet word in general, the government finds out swiftly, and the “good shells” are near impossible to find the next season or two. If you do find them, it’s likely a newer batch with the 60gram limit; such as when you buy a box of Death Shells today.
-I can’t stand those tubers for many reasons; 1. A lot of them are click-baits and aren’t true weigh-ins and claim to exceed 60grams. 2. You’re making it easier for government to shut down “the good stuff” quicker. Overall, I think it’s best to play by the rules. As much as I love “the good gems”, it takes away from the other Brands that are doing it right & playing by the rules, and doing a damn good job at it I may add! There are many damn good shells out there that already play by the rules, and produce a damn-good result, with really good effects! Black Cat, Manhattan Project, Geisha Willows just to name a few.. Also, The overloads are just a cheating way to take up market space. I’d rather give my money to companies who are taking the effort to produce a good product which will be there for years to come, and still be great!.. 🤦♂️ 🤫 but I can’t resist a box or two of the gems 💎 going in my cart. Pyro On! Would love to hear what others have to say on this topic.
I like to pull out a wad of money when sitting with my wife, and every piece that gets lit, i count out how much it costed us. BOOM....POW! =$25. After about 20min i tell her "count it", and shes like wow thats alot of money that literally burned up. And then i tell her how much it cost to make each one of those and she starts getting upset.
Fireworks... literally burning money. I think fireworks should be way cheaper
Yup, thats how i see it too. Literally burning hard earned money. Sometimes the fuse is more exciting.
Area 51 has the best pricing
Numbah one mistake is buying fireworks, its like watching money go up in flames. Don't get me wrong they're very kewl and entertaining but how much they cost for how long some last and or don't last. I spent a dung ton of money at black beards in myrtle beach. Maybe it was my age
Stick with the mom and pop stores you will get way better deals once you develop a relationship.. also 5 6 7 inch shells are nothing but empty space inside the shell stick with the old school Excalibur
Most if not all fireworks are a scam in usa especially artillery shells and cakes. Most artillery shells sold in usa are not full a lot of extra cardboard. I have seen some illegal cakes before that were no more than 3 ft by 3ft and was a whole show pretty much. The shells are half the size it would be in usa and just as good a break if not better.
Yes canisters are overpriced imo, repeaters I. Yup for 10 to 15 dollars for 16 to 28 shots.
Do you need an editor
I am a licensed Pyrotech and I can tell you that 60 grams is the limit and the bigger the shell the smaller the bang. The 5, 6, 7, etc size is the TUBE length not the shell. Tube length usually means a higher lift for the shell. Think about a rifle barrel. A longer barrel will increase the accuracy distance and the velocity of the projectile. The shell diameter is still 1.75 inches.
So if you buy 1.75 inch nylon reinforced pipe designed for mortars (. they have the bottom of the tube plugged)
you can buy just the shells (like we do) and reuse the mortar tubes for many years. Btw our. mortars are usually 1000 grams
What you mean the 5,6,7 is tube length?
You'd also think it lifts less high due to higher weight from star comp but 60g limit on BP/etc
The canister shells are 100% different lengths. Spent hours wiring em up and the 6 inchers are longer than the 5 inchers
John what length tube is best for building my own rack? Is there longer than 15” would those be better? The rifle example is excellent.
Not all Buy One Get Two's are gimmicks. The stores who are generally "gimmicky" are the chains and big brand stores. I have found true Buy One Get Two single location places around me. their BOG2's are FAR better deals than anything else. I have seen canister kits and NOABS going for $300 around me...these shops, offered the same $300 kits and NOAB's BOG2 at a lower price. ($250-$260) which was a far better deal than anything anywhere. In the end, knowledge and research is key. If you know what you want, know the industry and prices...you can find places that have amazing offers that aren't gimmicks.
Also, I know you hate Excalibur (you mention better canisters than Excalibur all the time)...but Excalibur is popular because when it came out it was king. It will always be king because it set a new standard. who cares if more or better canisters were made, that's what happens when something is great. everyone tries to surpass it, and usually do. Excalibur spurred on this competition and will always have a place in true pyros hearts. =)
That's still the gimmick. If you can get NOABs for $75-90 at a good place, then doing "BOG2" @ $250 is literally the gimmick in action.
Tent in i wanna say Nebraska had legit prices, the only BOG2 stuff was for the individual candles and stuff and it would be like $2 for 3 then.
Their NOAB 3"ers ranged from $60-85
@@oldkingcrow777not in Ohio. Our prices are atrocious because Phantom has influence in the state….the BoG2 ends up being a phenomenal deal for a NOAB as mentioned. Most of these places work with you anyway.
Don’t buy at Phantom or TNT❗️
This video does not help anyone but the seller. Be better shoppers.
there all 60gram canz at the end of the day intil you get coronas or something like that
