A World Without Borders

A World Without Borders

Borders is going out of business. Not those invisible little lines that divide land and create social disorder, no I’m referring to the book stores. In fact if you head over to a Borders store you’re likely to see giant signs advertising that “Everything’s on sale 40 to 60 percent off.”

Sounds great right?!  Well not for Borders, but for us…Yahtzee! So off I went, and as I began browsing I realized something sinister was afoot. Borders didn’t actually want to sell me their merchandise. And not just me, they didn’t want to sell it to anyone! They wanted to keep it for themselves. Now no one came out and said it, but I could tell.

How? Well items that would normally cost you$ 10, $15 or even $20 at any other store were $40 to $50 dollars at Borders. In fact I left there and went to Target and found a DVD for $9.99, the exact and I mean exact same DVD was at Borders for $39.99! Now according to my math department, even with a 40% discount that’s still way more than I should be spending.

Gee, I wonder why they’re going out of business. I’m so shocked!

Selling the exact same merchandise at insanely higher prices than other stores, RIDICULOUS! They should be ashamed of themselves, I mean is that stuff better just because it came from Borders?!

Doesn’t River Glass Designs sell the same Frameless Showers at higher prices than other places?

WHAT?!?!!!

WHO SAID THAT?!?!!!!

Well, let me help you understand something, yes, we’re not the cheapest when it comes to Frameless Showers…and that’s a good thing.

We use only the highest quality products; in fact we are so confident in the way our hinges are manufactured that they come with a lifetime warranty. Not from the manufacturer, the warranty comes directly from us.

We offer six different standard pulls and 5 standard finishes so that each customer can find one that fits their taste without having to pay more.

We have the world’s most meticulous and detail oriented estimators and installers, because you don’t just want a Frameless Shower, you want handcrafted slice of luxury.

So we do have one thing in common with Borders, we are great at what we specialize in. For Borders its books, not DVD’s or games or music or toys, simply books. And for us it’s glass, glass showers, mirrors, shelves, and more.

So in conclusion…River Glass Designs, we’re more than great coats….Wait I think that’s….another….

What I meant to say was River Glass Designs, We’re everywhere you want to be…

….River Glass Designs…Where’s the beef????

I’m confused now….

Superb!

Superb!

Superb.

It is defined as being marked with grandeur, excellence, brilliance or competence.  Now I would love to strut around town telling everyone River Glass Designs does superb work. However it seems that people find it rude when you “toot your own horn” so to speak.  And don’t even get me started on the reaction I get when I strut around.  The negative stuff I don’t mind, but all the whistling and cat calls, it gets embarrassing. So I’m left with a bit of a dilemma, how do I get the word out to everyone that River Glass Designs is indeed superb.

Hmmm…

I could make a video with a cute kitten playing in a tree, and then it falls out of the tree but instead of hitting the ground… it flies away… into space…because it’s a super space cat… and when he gets to space he meets up with his best friend a super space dog named Barks McGee and together they protect the universe from the evil teddy bears of planet Nebulon, whose only desire is to turn our planet into a giant marshmallow, but that’s not gonna happen! No it’s not! Not with Whiskers Tabington and Barks McGee on our side!

Or I could get a football player to endorse us…

Yeah, someone with a Super Bowl ring or even better a Super Bowl MVP, yeah a Super Bowl MVP,  Hall of Fame Running Back, instantly recognized by football fans the world over… Now who could we get…

Uh…How ‘Bout the one, the only, Mr. John Riggins – yeah that’s right The Diesel:

Superb!

We’re Back…

Monday, January 4th, 2010

Were Back...

Well the New Year has begun and now it’s back to work, back to school, back to life. However it was nice having a little break the last couple of weeks.

But in the words of Soul II Soul “Back to Life, Back to Reality.”

No doubt with the New Year ahead of us many of you have resolved to live better: watching what you eat and fine tuning the way you look. And at River Glass Designs we can help. Hear me out. You’ll need to see the progress you’re making, so why not get a custom mirror from us. This way you can watch yourself transform in perfect clarity.

What about after you workout you’ll be all sweaty and need to shower, but no more hiding behind that stinky old shower curtain. No, no my friend show off your progress in a beautiful custom frameless shower.

Of course if you’re a little shy we can always frost it.
