With the decline of the global economy, it is hardly surprising how DirectBuy has increased its sales into the billions ever since they started in 1996. DirectBuy is a members-only shopping club where they offer everything for in and around your home at the manufactures direct prices. It means that this concept eliminates all store mark-ups and middle man costs on household products and enables members to buy in much the same way a store buys. DirectBuy boasts over 800 major manufactures and authorised suppliers that members can choose from, with products ranging from furniture, flooring, electronics, appliances, sporting goods, jewellery and household remodelling items. Since members are purchasing factory-direct, DirectBuy’s only source of income is through their membership fee which typically costs around $4,000 to $5,000 each member.
Over the last few years while most families are desperately trying to save and are spending less on extras how is it possible that DirectBuy is raking more than $1 billion in sales a year? The answer is simple; people are looking to save more there in this economy stricken time. Many reviews on DirectBuy are available on directbuycares.com where you can find stories on how much people were able to save even after comparing the prices with those seen on sale or on the internet. The DirectBuy club has no competition and is the only large consumer enterprise running this unique purchase system.
However because of DirectBuy’s concept low pricing, they have agreed with retail stores to keep low-cost pricing confidential and only potential members are allowed to compare prices at a private open-house sales meeting that if declined by prospects will not be allowed to join the club for at least 7 years. Though the high-pressure sales, low customer service and long wait for products can discourage some; the significant savings is what is keeping the DirectBuy concept at a record high.
