That's why you got to use their coupons, like the buy 1 get 2 free coupons, & buy their gift cards, like around Christmas time you can buy a $600 gift card for $450.
Yea you deff right about that I used 1 Cupon for for lock and load which was 259 got two free then got another cupon for 50% off I went from 1400 to 730 you just gotta learn how to shop
They are high is a understatement, only when they have a 66 percent of entire store is it close to acceptable. Usually happens around the weekend of Cinco de Mayo.
Went into my first phantom the other day prices are nutz. But they had fuse for 11.99 a pack & it was half off, I preceeded to load up. I broke my cherry 🤣😂🤣
The natives started selling and I got 4 500g cakes, 8 200g cakes, 20 rockets, 24 7” canister shells, and 12 6” canister shells plus all the silly crap for the kids. All for $200
Crazy I went last minute before the 4th to a local shop in Nevada same ones all 24 packs where under 150$ some where even 80-120$ with buy 4 get 1 free deals and it was a week before the 4th
All stores that have buy 1 get 2 free or even buy one get one, waaay too high priced stores. A store with good prices doesnt need any of those marketing gimmicks. Keep that in mind
A TNT 10 shot artillery shell set at Walmart 24.99. So that equals 120 shells for 300 bucks. 😂😂😂The American retail fireworks look the same. Set up 2 or 3 tubes and fire multiples every time😂😂
I bought one of their gift cards for $450 during Christmas time & they gave me an extra $150 on it, totalling $600, add in the fact that I can use it with coupons like to buy one get 2 free, it's not so bad.
The funny thing is when I worked at a firework stand you soon realize they get these for about 50$ a piece and sell them for insane amounts by the time they sell one they make all the money back from them ordering in bulk
The prices were insane at phantom this year ! They are doing the buy 1 get 2 free right now but even with spending 2000 we got 1/3 of the fireworks we got 2 years ago
My wife’s uncle helps out at one store and I asked him once what the markup was and he smirked. It’s a huge number. Those fireworks are made for 10-25 cents a piece. There are several 100 percent markups before getting to the shelves. His unit cost for that 300 dollar set is probably 20-30 bucks. That set should be 60-70
@@trindaryyno only corporations are this expensive like TNT fireworks and phantom fireworks if you find family owned businesses or any other place it’s considerably cheaper
If the people don't buy any fireworks for 7/4 this year and next year it, would send them the message that No more price gouging during this national holiday is gonna be tolerated! 😢😮
Yup, I made the mistake of buying from them when I first got into buying the "good" fireworks. No one told me about the prices 😒. You live, and you learn.
@kingdave9567 I do patriot fireworks in West virginia. All their stuff is 50 percent off most of the year, and I built a good relationship with the owners, so I get 60 percent off.
I've seen good shell kits on wholesale sites for a little over $100 each. If you do the buy 1 get 2 deal from phantom then the price is close to the same as the wholesale store. This pricing structure applies to just about anything on phantoms shelves. If you don't become a premier member then everything will be overpriced by 3 times the value. One main difference is at a wholesale store you have to buy a case of the item and at phantom you can mix and match single items. So $300 at a wholesale store gets you 3 of the same item, but at phantom that same $300 could get you 3 different $100 items. If spending the amount needed to get b1g2 is out of your spending limit then pool your money with a couple other buyers and get a lot more bang for your money.
They dropped their prices recently. Canister kits down to $260. If you spend an absurd amount you can get them for b1g2, right around $85 a pop. Still absurd but better.
This is why knowledge of product is needed or you will get scammed! Platinum Excalibur and Grand Jury should not be more than $125 for 24 shells at non wholesale price.
That’s why we passed them right by on our way to Pennsylvania. We stop there one year and realize it’s a straight rip off. At our normal spot solo boxes of regular Excaliburs were 80 and the Excalibur platinum’s were 90. And if you brought a case of them that brought them down to 70 a box. And on top of it, they let you use the 20% off coupon. most people are aware not to go there the Normies go in there now
What you want to do is……. Buy a gift card early in May-June when they advertise them and you get Buy 1 get 2 Free coupon with it. So you’re paying $100 for the box of mortars anyways just like you would at a stand or anywhere else. Yes, the markup is awful for people who don’t know to do that. So spread the word.
Also, I noticed a lot of their prices have gone down on the big finale cakes. I was in a phantom 2 days ago. They were 349.99 last year. This year they are 259.99. Same size and same amount of powder in them. So I’m guessing they do know people can’t afford fireworks as much this year. Who knows
Me and my buddy went to phantom to stock up a few years ago and lasted maybe 10 minutes before we left and went to a wholesaler. Also, fun fact 6” canister shells are a waste of money, pop the top off of one and you’ll see what I mean
Phantom fireworks is a coupon only firework shop. Believe me the company knows they have a own way of running it. Phantom fireworks is trying to open locations everywhere so when anyone wants fireworks they are your option it's like a money hungry high scale operation to people who don't know better and people who don't have a firework shop for miles away. We need more local firework shops hopefully more people open them so phantom understands otherwise they will keep doing what they do.. OPEN MORE LOCAL FIREWORK SHOPS BEFORE THE CONTAGIOUS RICH FIREWORKS SPREADS AROUND CITYS AND MAKES IT HARD TO BUY.
I only purchase on the buy 1 get 2 free coupons or one of there other great coupons. They are my only option in PA (Hazmat ship makes prices higher than shopping here with the coupons.)
The only reason to ever go here is if you sign up for their emails. They have Buy 1 get 2 free deals like every single month and at least then the prices become manageable... still high for a lot of stuff though.
I live in ny and go to phantom in New Hampshire or Pa and get robbed I do two shows a year we're is there a place within that distance I can go cheaper besides over priced phantom
They’re seriously so overpriced now and it’s a shame bc I love phantom but I only go now if I get a great couple every so often, just like this buy get two for free and used it on assortments
Wow. What are they smoking ? Or is this them trying to push the prices higher ? Cuz now every other shop is gonna raise prices until they just barely cheaper than them. That's what happens with everything.
They are OUT of control.... Even with 50% off those Grand Jury are almost double what I paid at a local store...
Even 50% off that is still close to the case price. You can get 8 kits for the base price they are charging.
