very unlikely with four tips (2 each side) for that price ... but two tips have been seen on Ebay and our Sale/wanted site , although sometimes used.

500.00 is a great price. Send me an email if that system is sold and not available. I have several systems in stock and will sell them for a good price. Thank you,

Nate

Also, if you're willing to wait for a GP, you can find the twin cannons for about $450 and the quads for $550. That's what I paid for my quads. :)

Dave68- actually, you wont find that kind of pricing anywhere, pricing you stated is below cost. Yes, when the system was first released, pricing was low. Borla raised prices soon after releasing the Stinger kit.

Funny, I just bought my set on GP for $550.00 as Dave68 said. I actually paid $587.00 shipped to my house for the 4-tip. The two tip were in fact $450.00 plus shipping.

Well then, the company is losing money on purpose, or trying to become a distributor for Borla and selling systems at cost to come up with money for the required big buy-in. Trust me, those gp prices are below cost, so get em while you can...

I mean no disrespect Nate. I just looked for a good deal when I got in on the GP. I have no idea what the vendor paid, only what I paid.

i believe that wwe all want to support our vendors here on the forum;but when one of us gets wind of a really super deal like these past g.p.s,we share the knowledge with each other...good way to insure camaraderie,no?a side benefit is that with the bread we saved,we can get to other mods that much quicker!not everyone has a boatload of disposable income,so we have to budget our resources.actually,whether any vendor is selling at a loss or really small profit margin isn't my concern;they're the one's making those decisions.i think that we have to do what's best for ourselves,and our own situations! :steering:

I totally agree with you krabtree. My first reaction to this thread was how a shop could sell below cost, and that it could not be done. I was proven wrong and am glad for the members that got a sweet deal on Stingers. No hard feelings here! :)
