NAYY Sale- $5.00 yd. fabric!

Dec 27, 2007 9 Replies

I've spent a lot of money with this online store- super quality fabrics, great service, quick shipping and fair shipping charges. Here's what their email ad says-



Orders received from now through Saturday which is the 29th of December, buy fabric at $5.00 per yard! One yard minimums, though! Place an order on the



30th or 31st, the price is $6.00 per yard, but you can buy 1/2 yard cuts.

Prices will be changed as orders are received, so DO NOT expect your order confirmation to reflect the reduced pricing. We will change all prices before processing and send you documentation of the changes with your order!

I was looking for a good price on just very plain blue and found a good buy over at

They have Northcott for $ 5.20 (or you can pay $9 elsewhere) and other good stuff from $ 3 up. A nice sale. I haven't ordered from this shop before but am comfortable buying Northcott without getting to feel it. Has anybody found a holiday sale on Minkee? My supply is needing feeding. Polly

I don't see anything on the webpage, do you need to enter a code or anything, I'd be hesitant to order assuming things were that price without seeing something that indicates this is for any order, not just for previous customers or something.

Cheers Anne

Polly,

has Minkee - their prices are from $10.98 up to $14.98 & now thru Jan. 2nd, they are offering 20% off all orders & $4.95 flat rate shipping. I've been a satisfied customer of fabric.com. I don't know how these prices compare to other retailers - hopefully favorably.

Thanks for the heads up, Polly. I went to have a look and in the $3 section I found a fabric called "Hyde Park Gold Tapistry" - I've been planning a design which needs a dark gold and a light gold and when I saw this name, I couldn't resist, my first school was called "Hyde Park First School" and later on lived in a place called Hyde, which as you might expect had a Hyde Park! Neither of them are anything to do with the rather more famous Hyde Park in London, but it tickled me enough that it had to be bought - naturally I wouldn't want to waste anything spent on shipping, so I had to add to the order, I seem to be in green mode and found several nice looking greens in the sale.

Cheers Anne

And thank you, Pauline. The $10.98 price minus 20% is probably as good as I'm going to find. Now . . . if it will just come in before our neighbors are back from their hunting trip, I'll go cut it over at their house. Yessss. Polly

Anne, I emailed them and just received a confirming email. It would have taken forever to update the web page and then re-update it for the second phase of the sale. Everything that Leslie says below is fact (and Leslie, I never doubted you for a minute. I just checked because Anne raised the question.)

I've ordered from her with this kind of a sale/pricing at least a dozen times. She ALWAYS changes the price and she has even refunded shipping charges when the actual shipping amount was less than the amount invoiced. I would not hesitate for one second to order from her any time and in any amount. I just ordered 20 yards @ $5 per yard on this sale- one of my smaller purchases. And her name is Leslie, too! VBG

This is an email I received from her AFTER I posted this message here about her sale--

You're welcome! Please feel free to tell all of your friends or anyone you know that sews. I really want to downsize my inventory . . .significantly! Any help would be most appreciated!

If that's the motivation, then it really wouldn't be any more difficult to put a simple text message on the front page of the website. Sounds like she may get an awful lot of emails saying "I heard everything was $5 a yard, is it true...". Obviously changing the whole site so the check out adds up right is a lot more tricky and time consuming, but I do wonder how many people will get that email and check the site, see nothing and not buy, which is great if you're having a sale for the sake of customer loyalty, but not for inventory reduction.

Are you cutting it over at the neighbor's house, so you can fuzz up their house before they come home & they'll think little creatures were depositing fuzz while they were gone? Hope you find what you need while the sale is on Polly.
