Brent Krueger closed their doors?

Hadn't heard it mentioned here, but went to their website today to check on some prices and found out that as of Feb 29 they were no longer accepting orders.

Edited to add:

Was always very satisified with their services as well

Bummer ... I always had good luck with them.

I ordered a massive amount of Capital Plastic multi-coin holders from them and they were aways $20 lower than most places. He will be missed.

Too bad, they were always my "go to" guys.

Maybe if they had asked here first, they'd have realized there was a lot of business to be done.

Sorry to hear this. But I'm not too suprised. It is very tough to make decent money with supplies. My Dad did it for many years, going to shows almost every weekend and selling out of the house.
The biggest problem is inventory. There is sooooo many different supplies that folks want that is impossible and impractical to stock it all. The percent margins can be decent but it takes a heck of a lot of plastic tubes to make a buck.
To be honest, he did it because it needed to be done. Every coin show should have a supplies dealer.


And obviously business wasn't that great for B-K either. Shut down for over two weeks and no one was aware of it. That is very telling.

Would your dad be the "Big E" who I used to buy from in Upstate N.Y. ?

Never was able to do any business with this company. What can I say?

i received an order from Brent-Krueger within the past month to six weeks, but it's not like i kept tabs on what was going on over there. they had been running some close-outs on Intercept Shield products but gave no indication at the site that it was anything but business-as-usual.

i guess Wizard and some others will be the GoToGuys from now on.

That would be him!

For Dansco or Air Tite , one might try vernon.coin on ebay , or vernoncoincenter.com as a web site .
Lots of supplies , and Air Tite is sold by 1 , 5 , 10 , 25 , 50 , 100 , or 250 count lots .

Just learned of this today as I just got back the coin bug. Went to order some supplies and found B-K no longer in business.

They always had the right stuff.

TURBO

OK, SO, who is the next best??

Pistareen

I have used JPs Corner and been happy with the prices and service. I plan on sending my next supply order to them too.

BloodMan

I ordered my supplies from Brent Krueger, sorry to see them go.

Me too. I used to live about 10 miles from the store and stopped in several times. Too bad...

Where were these guys physically located?

Sucks to see business go by the wayside.
edit to add : Great post Mission 16. A good supply chain is imperative.

Darn it!!! I was just going to drive here today to get a bunch of stuff (we're the same 10 miles away)!!! Didn't realize they closed

lkeigwin

That's disappointing I'm sorry to see him go. I bought all my supplies from Wizard Coins.

The business wasn't sold? Just closed? He was in business a long time yes?

When it's time, it's time

Then: and maybe a little then

If that's it, All the best to you Mr Krueger!
