To answer some of the pricing questions. Yes they have coupons on their website for things like 50% and BOGO. Those can be found here: americanfireworks.com/coupon There are a couple other things to note. Ohio in my experience has higher prices than a lot of other states. Also, for the more serious pyro, there are wholesale options that I'll be covering in a later video.

@@JoelRobinsonPyrotechnics Well, if I did a store walk through I would still have to pick some fireworks up as its right in front of me. And I'm used to getting really cheap wholesale prices so maybe they are high compared to what I normally spend on similar cases from other wholesalers around me. It is nice that they have a low minimum order but I don't like stores that give you incentive to buy a lot of product from them to get a discount. As I like to shop around between 4-7 wholesalers throughout the year so I can get a nice variety of brands so I don't spend most of my $$$ on my firework stash at one location. But this is all based on my personal experience and needs but other Pyro's may be different. I'm excited to see what other content you got from this store so I will be watching to see what else you did! Also, are you going to be at Skywars again this year?

Prices like those remind me of why people buy wholesale and order early in the year. If you wait until the 3rd week of June to start shopping, what little you can find left will be very high. I wouldn't expect next year to be much better with shipping issues either. I know several wholesalers who have multiple containers that won't arrive before the 4th. Hopefully everyone who gets burned this year will learn to start shopping MONTHS ahead for next year.

You don't need a coupon to get 50% off at Phantom; just spend $450 once, and you get 50% off which is good for 3 years last time I knew. Plus, if you're like me, you will spend $400+ quite often so that 50% pretty much becomes permanent. I know it's still a sales tactic.

So, I've been in here a few times because I live nearby - and those prices are B1G1, or half off - BUT - you have to have a coupon. And I mean you HAVE TO HAVE A COUPON. And they don't allow phones in the store, so you can't just pull it up and show it to them. Honestly, it's not cool - in my opinion. So, you have to print out a coupon and bring it in to them. It's still expensive. Those prices, as well as most places in Ohio are up 30% from last year - on everything. Everything. They do normally carry a lot of great brands and have a huge selection, but you know - things are different this year. It sucks.

the prices from a lot of fireworks companies is a scam. watch "fireworks superstore' by KVA30S and you will see that you can sell awesome fireworks for really cheap. lots of 500 gram cakes for 30 bucks or less. that store is in Missouri and if they can sell them that cheap then why cant others stores do the same?

First off, I love that store and like to go there each time I'm in the area! Second, it's the same reason why you see such good prices at Walmart, but go to your local hardware store (if it even still exists) and things are 10-20% more expensive.

@@godrulztheearth A lot of that is shipping has increased too. Basic economics, supply is low, demand is high, prices increase. Demand is at an all time high, even higher than last year which broke records, but supply is super low. It's even worse for any company buying from a company here because that gets increased twice. I hate it just as much as you, but the industry has said this has been coming for months now. Some vendors were even saying buy in January before prices increase as much as 25-40%. I'm just hoping it changes in the near future.

Something to keep in mind on the pricing: 2021 prices will be up anywhere that you go by 15-50%. Transportation from the ports has been a nightmare due to lack of available transportation services. Unfortunately we’re all gonna have to bite the bullet this year, and based on what I’ve seen, you’ll be lucky in some cases to even get fireworks at all.

Wow, I don't know if this video helped or hurt this store...? Cause anyone who was thinking of going there no longer will. Those prices are beyond high. Those prices are stupid. 559.00 Golden Peacock. Joel, I respect your hard work and videos. I do. But you got to start calling out some of these stores. We know they hooking you up, but still. It's fooling the average consumer that these are good prices and there not.... An your channel reaches to many people to go along with that foolishness them stores doing.

Your right.... that's why we love everything you do for us. You one of the originals and your words matter. Your also right when you day those stores owe you. Cause, honestly.... they do. You bring so many eye balls to their stores and future sales. Which is fine. But firework stores know that the average person don't know what's a good or bad price cause they only shop once a year and they take advantage of those people and that's the part I don't like.
