Where do you get your trophies from?

Post by Dad of 3 »

We are watching our budget closer than ever this year. I normally try to buy local but I see trophies on ebay for about half of what I have been paying locally. Where are others buying thir trophies? Any good recommendations or things to avoid?

eBay. I think the merchant was King Custom. We were very happy with them for District trophies.

Just received ours from Crown Awards. Nice online ordering system (for specifying engraving, etc) and came less than a week after ordering.

Ditto with the Crown awards...they were just ordered and have not arrived yet, but they have a fairly large selection and fair pricing. Plus the site is real easy to navigate.

awardsco.com is also another site to check...
I have found pretty good deals on EBAY as well the last few years... good luck :D

Our Pack likes to buy them locally even if they pay twice as much.

I just received ours. As much as I hated to I purchased them from Ebay. This seller had 10 sets of the same trophy for sale. There must be economies of scale. As much as I would have preferred to purchase them locally. The Ebay price was 1/4 the local price. I also have a responsibility to spend the Pack's money wisely.
