Bargains and deals

You are of course taking quotes out of context, aren't you?

I could undercut your prices if I chose to, but I set my prices as fairly as I can in consideration of my whole business viability and profitability. Very few businesses undercut my pricing and if so it is usually due to inferior quality or a one off bulk purchase of one product for promotion.

I would be interested to know your product and business for a fair comparison. I mean, had you posted a quote I could just have easily posted your response.

So everyone who charges more than you is a rip-off merchant, and anyone who charges less is a junk peddler?

The whole industry may have to defer to your superiority.

There's a whole industry set up around that exact principle, its called 'advertising' Why does motomail and mrmotorcycle have to (presumably) pay for advertising on this site when others don't?
And yes I say this in full awareness that I've tried to hock my crap over here too, but mine is the most unique crap, and thus not subject to the advertising rules above

Where have I said that? If the price you quote is your standard price, as I said you must be aware of how far under RRP you are as I am aware of same. If your product is of similar quality to mine and your business offers the same back up good on you.

My initial quote was individual sales at well below RRP and I stated multiple orders were on the basis of quantity required. Those are simply my chosen terms and pricing. You likewise are free to do as you please.

Honestly, there are some precious people on here!

You really do make life too easy for us sometimes Ed.

over the years I have seen a lot of people and companies charged very high prices that border on profiteering and misinformation in order to make a buck.

You know Katman, even you can amaze me with your level of incomprehension at times. I really shouldn't expect anything sane from you at all...

To be fair, that was exactly my interpretation of it as well. Perhaps it is not the reader's skills that are lacking, but the advertiser's poster's?

Why indeed?

Until this thread I've never used this site to promote my (none-bike related) business. It's not the place for it - and I personally don't feel the need to use a special-interest site for obsessive off-topic self-promotion. For people like Ed, his only interest in the site is to whore his business, and his bizarre religious beliefs.

Now, off to the office to order more inferior product...

So you have inferior products, and no hope for our divine saviors intervention, what happens if there actually was a fire

[Swoop]

This thread is swiftly replacing the "wing mirror" one for most entertainment!

[Katman]

You're as bad at whoring your product as you are at witnessing Ed.

Too many people are too ready to attribute bad motives to what other's say and some allow prejudice to cloud their thinking. With me, what you see is what you get. I say what I mean.

You old sad, cynic, you. No sense of humour at all...

If you carefully read the OP and, (this is too much of a challenge for some here), read it in context and without preconceptions or prejudice - again, too much for some - you will have a revelation, and may even get the point.

What a load of bollocks, if you're going to advertise your stuff, then you should be able to clearly make your points. Talking in circles and 'interpretations' may be fine in the R and R thread, but here it'll damage your sales. Keep implying that the competitor's products are crap without having seen them, and the next battery I buy won't be a shorai.

Where's Quasi, I'm beginning to miss him...

Keep implying that the competitor's products are crap without having seen them, and the next battery I buy won't be a shorai.

I wasn't implying anything at all and if you read the OP I clearly said what meant, post 64 was as clear as I could make it. You know yourself there is a lot of crap being sold cheap and I was relating my own experience with competition. Did you miss the part where I commented on genuine competition?

I despair sometimes at how ready people are to mis read and jump to erroneous conclusions, taking words way out of context. No wonder the world is in the crap...
