No I mean it is sad to see people run from vendor to vendor for the best price. Ecspecially when a vendor took time to talk about your setup and the items needed and then run to cheapest place.

A lot of folks on these site have learned that a cheap price isn't all it's cracked up to be. Look at it this way, I spend time discussing options and needs with customers. That's time that could be spend selling more volume. You have to sell volume to make up for rock bottom pricing. I can't, and won't do that because that's like McDonald's vs. a nice restaurant. And happy customers come back, and I'd rather retain customers than always try and drum up all new ones.

And it's not like I'm raping anyone, I'm not asking you to pay a lot more than the average, am I?

MDACTON, I'm checking stock now and I'll get back to you with a time frame. These are big parts that take up a lot of room so we can't store many and I don't have any right now, but I will drop-ship them from UMI directly for you.

Food for thought. Any time a professional is willing to sit down and talk it out with you and insure your satisfaction can pay HUGE dividends down the road.

At least this is what I see and have seen not to mention experienced. I don't think you will get much better advice from anyone dealing with Suspension as you will with Sam Strano.
