If you need a generator, now might be the time to buy one.
My guess is that imports of that item will be few and far between in the upcoming months.

The time might have been better before all the hardware stores got the idea and raised the prices.
what was 2000.bz is now 3000.bz

Time would have been better months ago, before hurricane season.
"Nothing motivates a person like the last minute."

Still, the fact is that after a US hurricane we have trouble getting certain kinds of imports. Generators being prominent on the list.

Had done a search for this topic but didn't get anything (maybe I wasn't using the search properly) but my question is is there retailers on the island that sell wind turbine generators?

You will find that there are a few people that generate a lot of wind here. try tmg-americas.com

...

elbert, do the price of generators always go up at this time of year? Is it a "seasonal" item?

Yes, as Jesse and Bill posted. See also our advertisement at Jesse´s SP Daily; can´t miss it.

Very interesting!
I visited the website and have a couple of questions - I don't see any information about retail sources here - only about Germany, so wondering where the local island retailer is located?
Can you please let us know where the local retailer is, who is here to consult etc?
Thanks

Diane: The email address is clearly shown it their ad on San Pedro Daily: contact@tmg-americas.com

I clicked on the link too Diane which is located on the SP Daily and was sent to the Deutsch site also.

Jesse - I'm taking about physical address, not an e-mail addy.

The message asked for a local retailer on the island, the responder (from TMG) said yes there was in fact a retailer on the island - I'm curious about where this retail outlet is so we can go see the stuff and talk (not type) to a person.
I'm assuming that TMG will read this and let us know where to find him/her the windmills.
Old fashioned I guess, but I learn better & faster in person and I like to see the gizmos themselves.

Maybe he could visit your place of business....

To all who are interested in our wind-solar generated renewable energy systems we will have a response later today. Thank you for your patience.
