Dont believe that price I phoned Eddie about 6.5s telling hiim that Calmini had thier sale on and what the price would be to get them from the states .His come back was that he could order them for me and they would cost $1600 talk about mark up or maybe he just hates me for taking some of his customers away by making stuff at home and giving it to the guys i wheel with instead of them having to buy it of the prick.

Im still looking for a good price on either 6.1s or 6.5s have money to spend its burnning a hole in my pocket

Well, $1,310 is a good price for 6.4:1 so burn that hole and send the cash our way ;) .

Eddie is in business to make money so he has to get some sort of mark up. However, if you are a loyal customer who doesnt play vendors off against each other, it does make it easier to discount items :cool: . At the same time generally loyal customers appreciate that the vendor will look after him on more than just price & therefore are happier to pay what they are charged.


Dewse, I know you have asked me for prices on Iroks and some other stuff. I am interested to know if the prices that you have quote ($525 & $1,080) are for an individual price or package. I would consider these smoking :onfire: almost crraaazy :twisted: prices :cry: . Just remind me what size were the Iroks?

Sean I really appreciate all your help and in no way am I saying your product is over priced. And like you have said it’s not just the price that counts, it’s also the prompt and in depth customer service you provide. The reason we did not get the Iroks from you is that Shane my partner in this project who was paying got a very good deal with a local business. The first quote Shane got from him was just about identical to yours (39.5 x 13.5 irock)…but Shane then pushed him for a better price coz he has spend a lot of money their on his Jeep. The final Price was decided as $525 each and would arrive within weeks of the order (just the right time as the order was being made). I would never expect any other company to provide this price for a one off purchase. Also we had the issues that we would need to freight your tires to WA…which would have added another cost, and would be unrealistic to ask you to pay for it coz you gotta make a profit.

As for the hopper, that is the price he quotes for 5.14 not the 6.4. Your price of the 6.4 is awesome. Considering that the cost does really jump on the American sites.

I think Duncan needs to decide if he needs those extra gears and how long he’s prepared to wait for it.

And Damo, no I’m not brown nosing. Mczook has given me bucket loads of technical advise over PM conversations
