Title: T-molding.com Free Samples?
Post by: javeryh on November 04, 2004, 03:15:19 pm
Has anyone tried this?  It is right on their site - it seems as though I can get 40 feet of 3/4" black t-molding for free (even shipping).  It seems too good to be true (so it probably is) but I am wondering if anyone has done this before?  Thanks!

I'll take free sample of all colors they sell...  That should cover a ton of my control panels.

They send you a sample of about 6" in length.  I doubt they would send you more for free.

I figure this is what they would do but on the amount selection page and on the checkout page you can select how many feet up to the max...

Don't know if they would send you 500 - 6" pieces, or if they would give it to you all together.  Guess you can give it a try and see.  When I did it, I only selected QTY 1.

edit:

I'm quite sure you would receive up to 624 (the qty in stock) 6" pieces.  It says right on the site "Samples will be approximately 6" in length".  You are welcome to try it, though and let us know.

I just signed up for one of almost everything.  This is a great way to see what I want before I buy even though I'll probably get plain old black...  How long did the shipping take?  I'm just curious - I can't complain about free stuff!

If I remember correctly, it was fairly fast.  I just ordered 1 - 6" piece, so it just came in a small manilla envelope with a few stamps on it.  Yours might have a larger package, so it might take a different amount of time.

I ordered it once for 3 different colors.
It took around 1-2 week for me to get mine.

Remember, its only a 4-6" sample.  Don't try and get alot of
free sample to make your cab.  Unless you wan to make
a frankinstein cabbie. :o
