Pricing for Edge Boxs

[Trophy1]

I am looking for some help in finding a dealer with the best price for Edge products. Thank you.

 

[Cdogg]

adsdiesel.com $449. 00 for a 03' EZ p/n 1055970

We advertise Edge's MAP, but if you find is for less somewhere else give us a call. We have Guaranteed Pricing.

Diesel Manor, does someone regulate the pricing of the Edge Products? I have noticed that most all online dealers are advertising the exact same price down to the penny. I have also noticed that they are not advertised on Ebay like Banks, TST, Bullydog, or the others. Any insight on this? Thanks for your help and providing us with great products.

city performance and muffler nobody could even come close to what they charged me NOBODY!!!!!!!

Some of our TDR members have slightly used boxes available. I was able to get one for significantly reduced price. You may give up the warranty for the low price but at the same time, most electronics fail in the first ten hours of so of use, so a used box will have passed that milestone.



We have some great members that are very willing to help.

I don't want to take away business from site sponsors but the cheapest prices are on ebay. City perf. and muff sales on ebay as well and they do have good prices. A new EZ can be had for $395.

I have found most used EZ's for the Common rail cummins can be bought for around $225 - $275



FWIW

That is corect. Any "Authorized" distributor is supposed to advertise only MAP price (Minimum Advertised Price). That is why they are all of the same. If you advertise below MAP the distributor will, at their descretion, take away their discount from the vendor or not sell to them at all. I wrote this on another forum this morning. It explains some of the reasoning:

----------

I think many folks miss the point entirely. One of the most important reasons why not to have products sold on internet auction sites is that by preventing such the manufacturer can maintain a certain good will, or image with the customer. What I mean is, who knows who the person is that you are buying from on the action site. Are they going to be able to fulfill your needs later with questions or handle warranty issues? Probably not. More than likely it is an individual who is buying and selling commodities and knows nothing of the product he/she is dealing with. They're just trying to make a quick buck. If you later need something from them and they're out of business you will be left with a bad taste in your mouth. Imagine that you purchases a new computer at a local store. A month later it stops working. You bring it back to find out that the store is closed. Now you have to send it back to the manufacturer. I can honestly tell you that most, if not all, of the vendors who advertise on TheDieselStop will take care of you after the sale. No tail light warranties here. Heck, most of the time we pick up the freight charge so it costs you zippo.



The manuf. also want to keep their price at a certain level. Without a MAP policy, the price will be dictated by people who think they can live off of a 5% margin. I can tell you, those people will not last in this (or any) business, and will eventually close. How does that benefit you the consumer when you try to take care of a service need? All of the larger Diesel Performance outlets will not even bother with carrying that manufacturer's brand if they have to try to compete with these "value" type of retailers. We were approached by a company who is highly known in the Diesel Perf. business. They wanted us to stock their products. Once we saw their pricelist and realized that there was only an 8% profit on many of their items we told them sorry and good day. Heck, landing cost you have to factor in at least 4%. So therefore many manufacturers have a MAP.



Not trying to frost anyone, just trying to illuminate the terrain that we find ourselves curentley deployed on.

Just a little more insight for you so you understand

On March 1 2005 ,Banks Dealers have until that date to cease and desist all online sales of Banks products and displaying images of Banks products on dealer websites. After March 1st,anyone who has not complied will be discontinued as a Banks Dealer... Its about Time. .

I had a call at 7am Monday for LLY bundle , I could hear the keystrokes as He telling Me How Cheap it was on the internet, He was so fallacious and trying to tickle My ears. I said I would sell it to him for $1350. 00 he was so exhilarated, that It was such a good deal I was not going to sell it to him, and I mention that he should call the DOT>COM company at 7am and pound it over their head. .

Diesel Manor, thank you for your honesty and you will hopefully be hearing from me on my B-Day in March. The boss (wife) :-{} said that I can have something good for my B-Day. So I am going to try and convince her that my truck needs the Edge Juice W/Attitude. And then of course I have to get a cold air intake to go with it. I'll keep my fingers croosed until then. Oo. Thank you again for taking the time to explain that to me.
