Silly question, I know, but I work in an office supply store and people always ask me (usually joking) how many times you can click an average pen before the spring wears out.

This would be photos from a digital camera. Also, you would factor in the cost for ink cartridges at a common office supply store as well as the cost for high quality photo paper. Or having the photos developed at a local drug store for about $0.19 cents per photo plus applicable tax.

A year or so ago, I was in Wal Mart and saw some disposable fountain pens and thought, “What a great idea!” I bought a package and went about my business until I needed some more a few months later. I went back to Wal Mart and there were none! I’ve been to several stores since, trying to find them, but they’re nowhere to be found. Should I try Office Depot or another office supply store? Why did they dissapear? Did they not catch on? Please, someone, help!

I want something that is affordable, but doesn’t fall apart after 6 months like the ones I have bought at a certain discount store. I was told by an office supply store that laser printers are the most economical. I would appreciate advice from people who have actually used the machines. Thanks!

What trade references should I supply for a start-up?

jumpingrightin asked:


What trade references on applications for suppliers do they really want? If you have a start-up, you have not done business with anyone just yet. Can merely opening an account with an office supply store be enough as a Trade Reference?
What is unclear in the question? The business is an online internet catalog sales, does that really matter?
