: Always forget about CLC as a supplier. Just think of their boats. They are
: $49 a sheet and I can beat that at several place, but just by $2 or $3
: dollars. Noah's is $39 and that WAY lower than anyone else. I just
: question why they are $10 cheaper than everyone else. Got to be a reason.

They may have a steady customer rating. That would get them discount on ply purchases. High bulk or regular purchases tend toward that.

The better ply's kite mark (BS mark) is usually a much sharper printing than the less reputable ply's. I've always been able to read the kite mark on Bruynzeel ply, the cheaper ones tend to be very blurred.
