[Nfb-krafters-korner] Pumkin Class

[Terry Knox]

Greg,
I agree with everything you said to Len. I still do not see how you could
order $100 from this site, you would have to sell 15 or more kits to get the
$100 back and that is a lot of students signing up, or you would be left
with extra kits. I agree, if we ordered the supplies in bulk but someone
would have to find so many different suppliers, from beeds, pins, wire, and
more what would that cost be. I know Theresa T has been doing this a long
time here at KK at least 6 years, she knows the ins and outs on this, maybe
she would be the person to speak with. Just a suggestion.

Len,

I sent you a private e-mail earlier today. The supply list listed in the
sign up page has unrealistic numbers of beads. Please send me an accurate
supply list. Also, there is a discrepancy in the kit number from the sign up
page and your note. Which is correct? One place says JF59 and one place says
JF594. The Boleks website is totally inaccessible for screen readers. I have
spoken to them about this and did not get a positive response. I asked about
a digital file of their products and was told this was not possible. I am
unwilling to pay the excessive shipping cost to Boleks. They have a policy
of charging $9.00 shipping on anything under $100.00. So, shipping will cost
more than the kitwhich is from what you say is $7.60. If we ordered as a
group, ordered bulk beads from a supplier and someone counted and labeled
them in the braille color name and bead size, or even ordered a group of
kits from Boleks, it would be more cost effective. Furthermore, if we knew
ahead since classes are planned months ahead and could order more supplies,
it would be more doable. If you can get me a supply list, I will get my
supplies elsewhere. I am not supporting a site that does not support me as a
blind customer. What will be received from them is a bag of beads which most
likely will require sighted assistance to figure out. I have ordered their
kits before.
