A couple years ago I bought a Carbon Fiber splitter for my GS from C7 Carbon,a great company with fair prices and wonderful customer service. Well recently that splitter got damaged and I wanted to replace it with a new one and decided to spread the wealth and give another vendor here a shot and bought from them.Well I just got the tracking number and guess where the piece is coming from........C7 Carbon,so I checked their site and it's the exact same piece only they charge $120 less. Pretty upset I got taken like that and due to forum rules I can't bad mouth a vendor here but if you want to know just PM me.lesson learned the hard way.

Let me get this straight....

You bought a product

You loved the product

You needed another, so you shopped elsewhere

....huh?

C7 Carbon sells to other re-sellers to sell their products as well.

So C7 Carbon price is always going to be retail price to not **** off the reseller of there product (what the discounted price to the resellers is based on so they can make a profit on reselling the part), and if you can buy C7 Carbon products at a discounted price over the full market up retail price, then its a win.

I'm pissed off with myself for trying to help out another vendor and getting reemed to the tune of $ 130 bucks. Because I am always looking for deals. Won't happen again.
