It Seems Like A Great Deal

It Seems Like A Great Deal Until. . .

It’s Saturday afternoon, the sun is shining, you think to yourself “what a great day to head into New York City for some sight-seeing”. You and your significant other hop on the 10:45 out of New Haven, Connecticut headed to Grand Central. You are strolling around central park taking in the beautiful fall foliage when all of a sudden a sharp dressed man approaches you. “Would you be interested in a Louis Vuitton bag? I’ve got a surplus of them that I am looking to unload”. Intrigued by the man’s offer, you follow him back to his warehouse where you see bags stacked to the ceiling. “These bags usually cost $2,500, but I bought them in surplus so I can give you one for $300.00”. Of course you buy the bag because it seems like a great deal. The rest of the evening goes smoothly as you enjoy a delicious surf and turf meal at Smith and Wollensky and then head home.

Flash forward a couple of months to December. The bag that you bought your other half is completely trashed. This supposedly high end dealer you bought from sold you a knock off, and seeing as how you have no clue who he is you have no way on contacting him. Now, this is just a $300.00 handbag we are talking about. What if I told you the same thing occurs in the life safety industry ? Sixteen windows, three doors, one motion, one key fob, one keypad, install and equipment for FREE . Oh, I forgot to mention that they are paying you $150.00 if you sign up today? If you’re thinking to yourself “ wait something is fishy here ”, then you’ve got a good head on your shoulders. Do you think you are going to be getting the best product and service from a company that is giving away an abundance of equipment and then giving you money to have it installed? We aren’t talking about knock off designer bags anymore. We are talking about the safety of your family , pets and the new handbag you had to buy here.

Don’t be one of those people who fall into a security trap. Take the time to get to know the ins and outs of the system, the company, and its products. Do you really want the headache of having to spend more money on another system because you tried to cut corners originally?
