that sounds good... we should ask for GD from southwest autoworks... i'm sure they are more then willing to work out a great deal with this many people wanting them....

 

Ask Kevin to make one up that says Maxima.org.

I'd rather support Kevin and this site than Stillen.

 

yea, maxima.org or maxima, something like that. Chrome polished looking like the stillen one, i'm down

 

if they make it...... we will buy........

 

Sounds good, I'm in.

 

hey SILVERSLEEPER, aka Shannon and Ian, aka
se racing ....whats the good word

 

kool I'm down too

 

Guys .. I asked Kev a couple days ago. He'll get back to me by the end of the week to see if this is cost reasonable.

Ciao!

 

Are we getting these, or should I buy a SouthWest one?

 

Guys,

I just got a response from Kevin. He said it would cost way too much to produce maxima.org tie downs that will look like Stillen's.

So no go ... he did however say that it may happen in the future ... the far future!

 

Can we get a group deal on the Southwest one?

 

So what about the Stillen ones?

 

if this goes through for the stillen tie down i would like to be put on the list, but it doesn't look like it may...has anyone talked to Alex at southwest autoworks to see if he will give a group deal price?

 

i'm in for $25 shipped.

 

F stillen!! you guys sux

 

How much for the tie down without the Maxima.org logo? Ask Kevin what his best price will be at different interest levels.

I am down for those. RATHER S
UPPORT KEVIN THAN STILLEN

 

You ask him .. bet yet .. why not just get it from SWA? He supports maxima.org by advertising on here and providing great deals for all of us. To be honest ... I don't think Kev is that interested given the cost of these suckers.

 

has anyone contacted SWA for GD on there battery tie down?

 

so did this GD die or what?

 

i guess nothing really happend with it.... as usual for big GD...

 

I am IN

 

ur in on what? don't think this GD went anywhere....

 

I pulled this off of the message where this deal started. This was a message from Stillen dated 03/08/2003

final update
well i finally got word from stillen here the letter they sent me:
good day marc,

hi...shawn , here. how are things ?

first of all , i want to thank you for your intrest in the stillen products , and the offer to put together a
group buy for the battery braces.

i have reviewed the deal with the floor manager , and the quantites that you are suggesting on the " buy " .

he has stated at this time , that their will be no stillen parts available for any type of group buy or quantity discount.

i aploigize for the inconvience in this matter , but he has the final word.

this is way i was so careful with you on the requested part and the effort you are putting forth on trying to make it happen.

i don't want for you to end up as the bad guy , and of course , i would like to stay in your good graces as well.

so , with that , i really don't have any other options at this time .

i wish i had a better and more positive answer for you , but again , i'm the low guy on the totem pole.

hopefully you can understand my postion and situation.

thank you for your time , patience and understanding in this matter.

yours in service,

Shawn
And we get this after we have 60+ people interested. What S#!t. What do they want to do make an arm and a leg like gas prices.

 

That "floor manager" is an absolute moron.

 

yup.... stillen sucks.... they just rip people off...

 

Im in if the price is $25-$30.00 SHIPPED.

 

if you hadnt noticed man this thing is deader than tampa bay devil rays baseball team, it seems stillen for a group feal of probably over 75 people, cant seem to find a way to make past, present, and future customers happy, oh well

tino

 

Since Stillen wont do anything maybe we can get a group deal someplace else on Battery tie down plus with this kind of interest we should really get a cheap price . I know its not Stillen but think it will add a nice touch anyway. So with that maybe someone can put together another deal...

 

I had been waiting to hear from Adam Hume at Stillen for a little while and received a reply early this week but I'm just now getting around to posting it. Basicly he didn't want to step on anyones toes in the process.

"Hi Zane,

I re-checked on doing this deal for cheaper, but really haven't got anywhere bud.

We may want to revisit this later on once the product demand mellows out. We can't keep these in stock right now!

Sorry man,

Keep in touch

-Adam"

 

Stillen and Group Buy don't belong in the same sentence.

Oxymoron?

 

True True, Thats why I got it through stillen for $40 shipped

 

That's what I plan to do.

 

it looks nice and all but ... don't think it's worth $40... imo...

 

I spent $35 on Southwestautoworks tie down. At least I was helping out a fellow .orger.

I think that tie down looks better than my chrome tie down.

Wait until you see the NISMO one go for $150-$200, since the oil cap is like $90.

 

this cosmetic modding is getting way to expensive ...

 

I am definately not SERacing or Silversleeper. I am busy on the www.100NX.de, www.100NX.com, www.SR20DEforum.com, www.pulsar.org.au and other moderating a NX website that I got busy and forgot about this thread Sorry!

I can be seen in Brooklyn driving a B17 bus near you!

 

good lucky
