Members CedarValley Posted February 12, 2016 Members Report Posted February 12, 2016 (edited) I have sent out inquiries to several of our manufacturers. The factories are closed till March. As soon as I have heard anything I will post my findings. Just an idea for your catalog, if you could have a section dedicated to solid brass and/or solid stainless steel, and when the time comes 316 stainless steel hardware. It's nice the way you have it now, sectioned by size. But if you could add a section, yes duplicating some of your entries, that would be extremely helpful. I ONLY buy solid brass and solid stainless steel. So it takes me some time to browse any vendor's selection. Not just yours. Or if there was at least a sorting option for that on your website. I do not like and will not put anything plated on my stuff. At least if there is not an alternative anyway. So if anyone from Weaver, Springfield or any other of you awesome companies are listening.... Just my $0.02 Edited February 12, 2016 by CedarValley Quote
Members Rebecca Wiseman Posted February 12, 2016 Members Report Posted February 12, 2016 Thank you for your suggestions. We love hearing feedback on what we can do to make your purchasing experience easier. I'm very happy to say that we have been redesigning our website www.ohiotravelbag.com. By next weekend it will launch and it will be much easier to use. You can search for items, by item number, finish, type of metal, etc. You will be able to search under all Brass or all Stainless Steel without having to look through the entire website. We will narrow it down for you. Please always give us suggestions on what we can do to add to our inventory of items. We love hearing from our customers on suggestions of items and finishes. We can also source for you and have items custom made. Don't hesitate to ask. Thanks again... Quote

I do not have a fast computer or a huge monitor in the shop so navigating the catalog zooming in and out to read stuff is cumbersome, specially when it takes a while for the pages to load due to a slower shop computer. It is fine on the 21 inch monitor, faster computer in the office, but i never am looking up hardware there. Quote "If nobody shares what they know, we will eventually all know nothing."

Members Rebecca Wiseman Posted February 12, 2016 Members Report Posted February 12, 2016 We agree that the PDF catalog has been difficult to use. This is why we are so happy to announce that next weekend we will be launching our redesigned website. www.ohiotravelbag.com. You will be able to see the items, the different finishes that are available and so much more. Information will include things like base metal, country of origin and measurements. You will be able to look up items by type and base metal like Solid Brass or Stainless Steel. Ordering online will be streamlined but you can always call us to place an order. We love talking to our customers. We are very excited about this change and we hope that this will make it easier for people to be able to find exactly what they need, when they need it. Thanks for the feedback, it is always welcome. Quote
