hummer accessory store closing

[Idaho-Hummer]

does $650 for a SMA brush gaurd (with shipping) seem like a good price?

[Hummer Guy]

Am I missing something? There used to be a story and a release about them closing, and now everything appears normal. Anyone else find this strange?

What are you talking about? Never heard of such a thing.
Actually, the owner says he may have a buisness partner involved now and he may not need to give it up when he relocates. We'll see, but those of of us who got stuff at cost for a few days, I guess lucked out

And they were really low prices..just seems strange..<shrugs>

I won a SMA brush guard from them a month or so ago for $530.00 on ebay. Long story short they sold it to someone else and didn't have anymore. When I saw that they were advertising more on thier website I called and asked if they were willing to honor the auction. "We already sold that one" yeah I said but now you have ten more. "Well, I will call you back with a deal" Harry said. No return call no deal. I really wanted an SMA brush guard, and I was willing to pay what ever they wanted. Maybe I am being a little bit of a jerk but, screw them! I won't buy anything from them just on principle. Thanks "Harry".

Well, YOU might have gotten some things at cost, but it's not likely anyone else did.

Several people called for prices during this "cry for help" and the prices given were not at cost. Then there was a statement that one could just buy something through the site but they would call to verify and give the actual price. etc etc.

All sounds a little scummy to me.

Let me first say, I'm not involved in this company in any way. I know the owner, Jose only from going into the shop and purchasing things. That said, the original intent was to close down shop. The guy is relocatting to New York and can't run the buisness from there with all that is going on with his family. Since then he has had numerous offers to purchase the company and or parts of it which would be quicker for him.

I called him and voiced our concerns and he said he will honor the prices on the price sheet he posted on his site. Those prices are what he paid for each item. The reason you had to buy the item without knowing the actual price is because he was not going to go through his entire site and change prices, thats why he posted the price sheet later. No credit card was going to be charged until you, the buyer agreed on the price.
Thats what he told me and he will still sell the ebay winner a guard for the price he won it at. He had no knowledge of the conversation with Harry.

let me say both Jose and Dave (hmrlvr) are stand up guys. They will not jerk you around.

I've persnoally delt with Dave and nothing but great service on his part!!! I know Dave doesnt work for them, but is close with Jose and gets any information I needed quickly.

What about this "Harry" character that jerked me around?
