Group Buy for Corsa Exhaust?

[SOCRATES]

I know I'm not the only one interested in purchasing this exhaust. Just curious if anyone had any connections to arrange a "group buy" for this item? I'm sure we could get together more than a couple interested parties.

Do you have a source? How Much? How many units do you need to buy. Mike

Mike,

No, unfortunately I do not. I'm sure someone on here does though, and could set up a group buy for the fellow members on this forum. You can count me in, if so!

I was just wondering.. As we have investigated adding Corsa to our product line.. Just do not wish to add store inventory at this time.. We would be willing to do so for a small group.. YOu will need to find 5 people total wanting Corsa.. It would be below retail. I do not have specfic pricing. If you can find 4 other people email me at info@popguns.com or call at 1-877-900-4867.. I do not wish to step on Jasons toes.. If Jason sells Corsa product, I would prefer to cancel offer.

For anyone interested, there could be a good Group Buy going on over in the H2Fanatic forums (Hint, hint, nudge nudge).

I checked it out over there and the deal looks great! If someone is interested, take a look under "H2 Technical Discussion". It's well worth it!!

I believe that string hs been deleted.

I had been contacted by some "higher ups" they informed me that they were unsure whether those offering the deal were a certified Corsa reseller.

They asked for me to remove the thread and I obviously thought that was the best move. Until more information is available, I would prefer that you all actually get what is promised to you.

Jason,

I posed this question to the company (Hummer-Parts.com) this afternoon just to be sure:

The response was as follows:

"WOW! This is a good one! We are a Corsa Reseller! We are a GM Dealer and you are getting the stuff right from Corsa with a factory warranty! Some people just don’t play fair."

Justyn,

As mentioned earlier, this is simply what I was told by the "higher-ups." Further, they were looking into it and made a request to me. It is not a matter of me not playing fair, just accomodating a past sponsor of the site.

Jason

Jason-

What ever happend with Corsa being a forum sponsor? I thought I remembered them even having their own section of the forum???

No problem, I had no idea either way. I just wanted to pass along the correct information that I obtained from the company.

Thanks,

H-DOGG,

They opted to stop for whatever reason, I think because they did not have the time to reply to everyone's posts. Obviously I am still in contact with them from time to time and they do intend on coming back when its "time."

Further, I really believe that they wanted to get their name out there - which was accomplished.

Regards,

The prices on the group buy are the best I have seen. Corsa frowns on people selling at a discount because it globally lowers the price of the product and their competition will follow suit. The site offering the group buy is a GM dealer so they are authorized to sell the system. Friendly Chevrolet of Puyallup

It is a good thing to know that everything is legitimate.

I jsut wonder why the magic numbe "12", they are not saving anything by purchasing 12 units from Corsa, Presuming they have already reached their purchasing requirements..

I have a little more info.. The Corsa people are not hapy with the idea of their product being "Whored out "(my words) at almost dealer pricing. Can't say as I blame them.. Short term the pricing is good for us.. Long term , Not!.. Because if a companys product loses value, dealers will not stock as readily and company goes away.

I just ordered mine from Realwheels.

What do you care if we can get a good price on the Corsa exhaust? By paying hundreds more what are you proving? Sounds stupid to me. Your argument about the product not being stocked as much and the company goes away is about the dumbest thing I have heard. If anything they would sell more units. Lower the price and sell less units?

I'm in business and the name of the game is buying something for as little as you possibly can and selling your product for as much as you can. The balance is to do it and still maintain customer loyalty and satisfaction. What you are seeing is capitalism in action. The very thing that makes us (Americans) unique and what enables us to purchase things like H2's. Thank God for Republicans.

Why does CORSA really care? They're still making their profit by selling to the dealership. And with a group-buy like this, they will sell more units to that dealership...thus = more $ for them.

The dealership is the one potentially losing on profits. However, their total profit margin on selling 12 units at this "special" price is probably the same as selling 4 units at retail. AND they show CORSA that they're selling 12 units in Feb. Most companies want to show their supplier that they're moving their product.
