Is it better to purchase merchandise through a retail funeral product store, a cemetery, the Internet, or a funeral director?
Consumers can opt to purchase funeral merchandise through retail outlets, cemeteries, and even the Internet. Over exaggerated claims about the savings one can achieve are prevalent, especially on the Internet. A consumer should always get price quotes and make informed comparisons before purchasing any merchandise. Cemeteries and funeral retail outlets often maintain inferior quality products marked up higher than a funeral home simply because they need to recoup their operating costs from just the sale of those products. Before purchasing from a third party provider, always get a written quote describing in detail the merchandise, materials, and warranties included. The terms and conditions of delivery should be included. Compare these prices and items to that of your local funeral director. At Rezem Funeral Home we offer an extensive variety of caskets from under $900 to over $5,000 produced from wood, metal, and alternative materials.
