We are going to have a minimum order of $25.00. Due to the fact we use actual UPS charges and do not charge a shipping or handling fee, we found with smaller orders it actually costs us more for the box, tape, and packing peanuts than the item we are shipping.

Additionally, we will regretfully be increasing prices. As all of you are well aware, the cost of shipping to receive our inventory, as well as the electricity, heat and other operating costs have risen and we are no longer able to absorb the increases without "passing them along". To give one quick example: packing peanuts are a petroleum product and the price per bag has nearly doubled not to mention the vendor started to charge a fuel surcharge to the cost of delivery fee.

Though the majority of sales are to the government; this company was founded on selling to the collectors and we wish to continue with the philosophy of providing quality parts at a fair price and shipping orders promptly.

We do not want to create fear of drastic increases. However, we did want to provide everyone with advance notice that some increases will be coming.

Dec. 2007.

We started this page as "Newsletter" of sorts. We would like to use this get information out to our customers and thought this was best way.

We would like to wish every one Happy Holidays and a Very Prosporus New Year! It seems as though this year just got started and it's over already! Maybe we are just getting older.

We cannot emphasize enough just how much we appreciate your business. As long as you keep calling/faxing/emailing/etc we plan on being here. We hope to continue fast processing your orders. We do not like to wait on parts so we do not want you to have to wait either and will try to continue to ship same day when possible. If you have any suggestions as to how we can make things faster - better - or easier for you just drop us an email or give us a call. We welcome your suggestions and will do our best.

So, Thank you for your continued support and looking forward to serving you in the year to come. Happy Holidays from all of us at Saturn Surplus to all of you!

Sept. 2007.

In an attempt to better serve you, we are restructuring our hours. Since it's begining, Saturn Surplus has been a family owned and operated business with the assistance of one employee. We would like to keep it that way. Bigger is not always better! We have found that we are unable to process orders Mon - Fri and maintain the website as well as perform other functions such as inventory control etc. Therefore, we will be processing orders Mon - Wed, 9:00am to 5:00pm Eastern time. This will give us an opportunity to better maintain the Website, maintain inventory, and take inventory in our other warehouses. We will be accepting on-line orders, faxed orders, emails, and voice messages. However, we may be in other warehouses and unable to answer phones or get orders processed. So, to be fair to eveyone, we will not make any guarentees of service on Thursday or Friday.
