I found a Blue Linx distributer, they look like they could distribute plastic products. But they don't mention Plasticon anywhere. So, it looks like if you really want to actually buy a Plasticon product, it is very difficult to find. Is this good? I recall a product called, what was it now...Oh thats right "Taste of Nature" or something like that. Had the same problem... BlueLynx.com looks like an employment agency. Is this a good or bad thing? Why would anyone have to do DD to find out where to buy product? Whats up with that? Shouldn't all this info be on the Plasticon web site? Any real customer references anywhere? Why would I have to do any DD to find this stuff? I would think that a growing company like PLNI would be proud of their accomplishments.

rrm, you are the guy that needs to catch up on DD. If you had a BlueLinx catalog for their "Concrete Reinforcement Products" you would see that the company name "Plasticon" is NOT in it. There is one page with "Bar supports - Plastic" that shows plastic products similar to what Plasticon sells. Go to the BlueLinx website and show me "bar supports - plastic" or Plasticon. This shows me that Plasticon either does not have a good brand name or that BlueLinx does not want to be tied down to having PLNI as a sole supplier for these types of products. If you knew the basics of distribution, you would know that a distributor will switch suppliers in a heart beat if he gets a better deal from another manufacturer. I happen to know a large manufacturer (injection molding and extrusions)that has a national salesforce, excellent product website, well financed, and sells through distribution that is currently looking at rebar support products. By the way, this manufacturer does not allow their products to be displayed in a distributors website or catalog without their brand name.
