so frequently asked questions about our crab mallets:
Q. Are
your mallets made in the US?
A. Absolutely. Not only are they made in the
US of the finest woods, but they are manufactured
on Maryland’s Eastern Shore, the heart
of Chesapeake Bay crab country. Our competitors
mallets are made somewhere in Minnesota. Do
you think they know anything about eating blue
crabs?
Q. How
do I know your mallets will work?
A. Umm. Try it? They even work for righties
or lefties.
Q. Why
don’t you print on the handle like other
places?
A. Number one, we like to be different. Most
importantly places that print on the handle
don’t know a whole lot about eating crabs.
Think about it. Your hands are wet and covered
with salt, spices and Old Bay and you are hammering
away yucking up the imprint on the handle. The
imprint stays relatively clean on the head which
just makes a lot of sense to us. When the head
is printed, the imprint lasts far longer according
to our test groups and the person using the
mallet keeps seeing the imprint while eating.
Pretty revolutionary.
Q. How
can you sell your mallets at far lower price
than other places -- like the places that print
on the handles?
A. Elves and gnomes work very cheaply.
Yes and if you’ll notice our regular everyday
price is less than their “Sale Price”--woooo. They also have a $50 set-up charge
and yet “they” advertise the lowest
prices on the internet.
Q. If
I order 500 mallets how will I know that 500
are in the 2 boxes you shipped?
A. Uh -- we count them. And on a good day we
even throw in a few extras just to be safe.
Q. Do
you offer multi-color imprinting?
A. No--not at this time.
Q. Can
I use my crab mallet for other tasks around
the home or office?
A. Yes.
Q. I can't wait to get my mallets–how long do I have to wait?
A. Production time is around 2 to 3 weeks. Email or call us if you need them faster–we can often accommodate. All mallets that are ordered for weddings will be shipped approximately 2 to 3 weeks before the date on the mallet. The mallets will arrive in plenty of time before the due date.
Q. I
have noticed that you have a 50 piece minimum
while other places have a minimum of 250 pieces.
Your 50 piece price is less than their 250
piece price. How can you stay in business?
A. Our accountant asks us the same question.
The real answer is that we like to accommodate
our customers.
Q.
What about custom imprint crab knives?
A. Not yet, but we are working on it.
