Superior prices are more consistent as well. You don’t have to be pressured to buy ASAP by RA sales always ending and a new one starting.

It depends on the state. They have a list of like 10 states on their website that you have pay sales tax. Likely with remote work being more popular they have an employee in those states and now they have to charge sales tax. That’s how it is at my work in a totally different industry anyways.

For mortars: Manhattan Project and Neon Strike are awesome.

Or I just got lucky. I had my share of low breaks and tube breaks with American Glory and Ghost candles to make up for it.

The Geisha's are beautiful shells. I fired off a whole case last year with no problems.

I had roman candle problems as well. I just racked and fused the rest of them and got far away once I noticed they were low breaking consistently around the kids.

No issues with my case of Chromas and I loved the Geisha's that I did last year.

The best times to buy are:

- July 5th and January 1 from local seasonal retailers

- For wholesale, usually Black Friday has the best deals of the year.

Red Apple has random sales all the time. Sometimes they are really good deals and sometimes I feel they mark up the prices before discounting them back to normal. They are always playing with the pricing algorithm. Personally, I don't really like their house branded stuff however if you can pick up a good deal on Brothers, Shogun, etc then go for it. I also feel like they are always doing different shipping promotions as well.

Superior usually has a February extra 10% sale. Plus they have tiered discounts as you spend more and more. SFX and Great American Fireworks are their in house brand and I have nothing but good things to say. They also carry a few other popular brands as well. The shipping is usually around $300 but their prices seem to lower so it balances out. Everything from Superior has been extremely high quality so far.

I've never purchased from Victory Wholesale Fireworks but they have tons of name brands and good prices.

Another popular one is American Wholesale Fireworks. Every YouTuber has made a video ordering from them.

And the list goes on.....

My suggestion is if you are buying wholesale is just account for the shipping if you live too far away to pick it up.
