Thats really steep. I mean my clear corners are not all dirty like in your pics there. They look more like the "diamond cut" ones. Most people on this board would rather pay 20 bucks for pretty much the same thing.

I got mine for 25.00 on ebay

and they are GREAT - I'd honestly say they look like the "diamond euro" whatevers..... did you all just use like spray paint in photoshop and fuzz the old ones on your pic?

I love the good deals you all have like the strut bars.... but 69$ - thats a lot for clear corners

hmm

I got my clear corners for $40 from courtesy nissan and they dont look like crap like the regular clear corners in that pic you have. Bring your diamonds down to 45-50 and you might get a few people.

nah they are different, i've seen them both in person. The diamond cut are more of a "silver" and not as white.
But reguardless they should be like $40 max, procarparts is a joke and the fact they think were the idiots just proved who the idiots are. So please procarparts, get your sorry excuse for a deal off this board.

70.00 is a lot of money for the lights, not many people if any will buy them. the competition is about half of what your selling them at. 40.00 is a price i would settle upon if i was the company. i would lower the price in order to sell them and not have them collect dust on a warehouse shelf. for almost the same look, you can buy the lights for as low as 25.00 from e-bay also nissan dealers charge around 40.00.

You guys keep saying no way they're going to sell them for $70 and so on. Right now, one of their sets is going for $96.00 on ebay with 24 bids. And I've noticed a lot of their previous sets went for around that much. I think the price is a joke too, but if they can sell them for that price, more power to them...

They might have fixed the price on ebay, who knows. But I've seen several of their auctions go up to that price and I seriously doubt a company is stupid enough to be the high bidder on their own item too many times, too much risk of losing money. You never know, maybe the diamond cut lenses do cost more to make, probably not though... All I'm saying is that they have the right to charge whatever they need to. Obviously it was stupid to do it here among enthusiasts, but if they want to sell $70 corners, the market will decide whether or not they stay in business. I guess I just see the other side of things since I run a business too. It really pisses me off when people email me telling me they can buy the same thing for half price or something without actually knowing the company's true expenses. They could just be ripping people off, then again they might be legitimately expensive.

Look understand this: Procarparts does not set it's prices on a cost plus basis; they are most interested in pricing this product at "what the market will bear." This is what I was told in different words when I called to ask about this item around a month ago, they said "those are only for sale on ebay right now, we're trying to determine how much people are willing to pay for them." This tells all about Procarparts as far as I'm concerned, I will personally not ever buy one thing from them as I consider this strategy non customer friendly. I suggest you consider this for yourselves and make up your own mind, they have been know to offer good deals as in the FSTB they were selling recently.

The reason the diamond corners are priced high is bc they are new on the market period. Some people don't mind paying 70 bux for them, so let them, eventually they may come down in price.
