Full throtle steering wheel??

[wetfoot]

I personally dig what N3 has been doing with their mods.

They inspired me to go with the Nardi Classic Wood Wheel which was featured in one of their pics.

Quinner also inspired me to make a cash donation...

Hit me with one of those cool monikers.

The thing with CC parts pricing is that there are no set retail prices. One dealer may mark a part up X% while we may mark it up Z%. Of course if a dealer chooses to mark that part up less than me than I look foolish like in this case. FYI...the crest carpet Kevfran99 bought the dealer made nothing on. If I wanted to sell everything at 5% over cost I'd look like a hero too.

really??? I actually paid less than I said. He told me what his cost was, I will not disclose it either, but I do KNOW that he will make money at $850. That price is also good to anyone on here if they want the crest carpet. If you want their contact info just pm me.

Last time I was at my local dealer he showed me how they look up parts. One file gets your the part number and their cost and then another gets the retail price. No one is trying to be a hero, but when one dealer sells something for over $400 less than another somethings wrong! But no worries. Orlando won't have to be bothered with any of my parts calls again.

Donation made.......where's my bling???? ahh it showed up! SAAWEET!

I'm a gonna need some bling myself. I love this site and need to support it. I just have to get some of my hidden money to the right account

I love the full throttle steering wheel myself. Mine has a "top" and it's always cockeyed anyway, so it just looks even sillier.

Not necessarily. Some businesses do things differently than others. I do not believe in marking parts up over retail(yes,I own a business that sells parts) but that is considered the norm and is generally accepted practice. I guarantee you if you buy parts at the Harley dealer you are paying 10-15% over list on anything that does not have a published price in an accessory catalogue.
On a side note( not trying to be an A-hole) if you are happy with your local dealer , and it sounds like you are, you should be supporting them anyway, not buying parts from Orlando, So it worked out well. :mrgreen:

can you get crest in an 05 ?

[CradGen2]

Looks like I will need to donote when I get home. Do I do it online?

[NautiqueJeff]

Yes. The donation link is on the left side of the site.

I like this thread!

[TravisFling]

Jeff's making money!!! Just think if we all knew how to get bling earlier!!!

[NautiqueJeff]

I don't know about MAKING money... Maybe for the next couple of months I won't have to put out as much of my own money to keep the site running!

[kevfran99]

one member has already contacted me about the crest carpet. Let me know if anyone else is interested at the $850 + shipping price.

No reply from Orlando???

I sent Orlando an eamil about a part over two weeks ago, no response. Must be too busy, I understand poor custumer service very well. Translates to : spend my money elsewhere.
