Online Cooking Spices Seller Boldly Takes Competitors to Task

June 28, 2010 - PRLog -- Okay, some changes around here. BIG time... You can NOW order just 1 ounce of the spice of your choice, or any selection from our 16 quality choices, up to 10 ounces, and at 10 ounces you will get FREE shipping and handling. NO ONE else does that. Compare us to MySpiceSage.com, you get free shipping when you order 40 bucks or more. And their prices are often TWICE (i.e. $2.00) when you buy by the ounce, and they're the cheapest we can find on the web, so we're really goin' to the mattresses here to win your loyalty. Our order page is a FLAT OUT no brainer. Simple, fast, one page, just check the spices you want and hit the calculate button and you're right on our checkout page where we don't try to badger you into buying anything else. We calculate your costs and shipping and handling and even do a snazzy little price comparison on the shipping $$ for you. Ours is the lowest of course, and it's free at the lowest buy on the web at $9.80 for a 10 ounce order. Compare our FREE to TheSpiceHouse.com at $4.90 and $4.00 for MySpiceSage.com. And when we DO charge shipping and handling? It's at our COST.

Our new one ounce shipment for example? Shipping and handling is $1.56. Theirs? Still $4.90 and $4.00. There's NO reason for that other as far as we can see. Our 12 x 15 poly mailer costs us 16 cents, and a 2 ounce small package US mail plus 30 cents and 2.9% for PayPal come to about $1.56, which is what we charge you for shipping and handling. I'm sure the competition could figure that out also if they tried. And for a 9 ounce shipment? We top out at $3.19, while they haven't budged. And TheSpiceHouse.com goes to $8.90 shipping and handling when you hit a full pound.

OUR 10 ounce shipment? $9.80 bottom line. Free shipping and handling. OUR 16 ounce shipment? $15.68. Final cost? 98 cents an ounce, free shipping and handling.

It's up to you. You can buy spices for less or you can be a stamp collector. Try our new order page. Fiddle around with it. You don't even have to buy anything. Do some price comparisons and see how we stack up against our competition. We've done our homework here. And McCormick? Fugeddaboudit. Their bay leaves in our local Shop Rite (Bay Shore, NY  11706) are a tiny .18 ounce bottle for $6.29. That's over 34 bucks an ounce for bay leaves. We counted an ounce of our bay leaves for 98 cents? 92 bay leaves. A little more than a penny apiece. McCormick? THIRTY SEVEN cents a bay leaf if our estimate of 16.5 bay leaves in that tiny little .18 ounce jar is right. The duck almost fainted. Of course, McCormick is the best and you have to pay for quality but we think our stuff is pretty darn good and we just got told by a nice lady from Puerto Rico who used to buy the 99 cent store brand specials that ours are the freshest spices she's ever had in her life and that when she started opening them her kitchen smelled like a potpourri factory. THAT'S the kinda testimonial we're gonna rock this business with. And we invite YOU to check us out for FREE. While supplies last, just click on the link for the spice of your choice and we'll snail mail you a free 1/2 ounce sample. DARE to compare us against what's in your spice rack today and TELL us about your experience. THEN? Order if we're not jivin' you.

We think you'll be back. And don't feel sorry for poor little us for our low price of 98 cents an ounce. We're STILL making a profit. We work smart. We're a lean, mean spice sellin' machine, and it's time for American Consumers to take cooking spices OFF the list of outrageously marked up products like bottled water (more expensive than gasoline when you buy by the serving) and microwave popcorn (which to our minds no such plant exists, we have often just dumped some store brand bulk bagged popcorn kernels into a paper bag and stuck it in the microwave for pennies). Sorry, McCormick. We love ya, but it's time for Americans to take this link, which skips the sales pitch and puts you right on the page of truth:
