About Quotes
Quotes are the cheapest way to purchase traps for most zip code areas. The shopping cart must have a fixed price in order for it to work. So, because of the large size of the packages and the big spread of shipping zones the shopping cart prices had to be averaged according to past sales records in order to establish a fair Shipping cost. Now, my remodeled quoting software will generate the Exact cost of Shipping plus equipment delivered to your shipping address thus saving you money and allows you to purchase equipment by check, money order, and even a couple different methods of using PayPal differently from the shopping cart! You may receive a quote for any item or group of items listed on the shopping cart. All quotes are generated offline for security!
Remember that all quotes are free to receive
AND you are under no obligation to purchase anything after receiving a quote.
Also, keep in mind that quotes take a bit longer for a transaction to complete
then the shopping cart simply because of the additional time needed for the
interaction between myself and you plus UPS delivery time if you are purchasing
with a check. Checks are very welcome and there is no hold time because of the
fantastic luck I've had in the past. The shopping cart is the fastest way in
receiving a trap because the transaction is instant and in most cases you
actually receive your order in 1 to 3 UPS days depending upon where you live.
In order for my quote software to work you Must email me your Full Name and Full Shipping Address. Example

Add next the equipment you want a quote for. (Any of the items on the shopping cart list)
Comments if you have them.
That is it. When I receive your email request I simply copy and paste your name and address, plus what you want, into the quote software fields then click a button. Like magic, a quote is generated that is tailored to your shipping address and the quote is emailed back to you. The quote contains the different payment options, my policies, my contact information, and of course the total cost of the entire quote for the equipment delivered to your address.
For security reasons I do not generate a quote online. I manually prepare, generate, and email, the quotes myself. All the software I use, databases, quotes, shipping and invoicing, I have personally, 100%, programmed the software code so, it doesn't get anymore secure then that! (Plus, I am a darn good programmer too, grin!) With all that said, keep in mind that I answer email and send quotes only once a day because I am building traps the rest of the day.
To answer a couple of questions that have come
up many times before, why am I building crawfish traps instead of programming
software and, do I make more money building traps then programming software?
The commercial crawfish trapping season only lasts half the year and the
balance of the year I mainly programmed software. I sold my first award winning
software in 1985 called TJFormat. I have 21 other commercial software programs
under my belt plus even security software for local governments. Needless to
say, I am very burned out on computers unless it is for myself and then it is
fun. So, building traps, which BTW pays a whole lot less, is a breath of fresh
air and extremely relaxing, plus I love the 1000s of emails I get telling me how
great the traps are, grin.
One last thing, lately I received quite a few emails from people thinking that I only accepted PayPal. Hey, I love checks, money orders, and cash, PayPal charges me a fee for any transactions so by providing a quoting system soon pays off for me, grin. I really don't care how you make payment but I do care that you have the best crawfish trap in the world!
