Called Demco for their catalog the day I saw the net posting which included
their 800 numbers (either the 20th or 21st); got the catalog in Monday's
(the 25th) mail. Fast service, however, is not cheap. Glancing through
it, the wife and I noticed quite a few items priced at essentially full
retail list, even in quantity, though available from numbers of other
sources at substantial discounts -- items like Mura headphones, record
inner sleeves, cardboard magazine boxes, etc., all were priced high.

For items unavailable from other than library-supply stores, if you
must have the exact thing, you probably cannot find another supplier
for less, and might as well go with them. For other items, though,
I caution you to comparison shop. I think you'll otherwise pay too
much for the convenience of having a single source for a wide range
of items.
