Ok, I guess I should put my price up then. The going rate right now for individual set of 4 AGX's is going to be 350. If I can get more people, maybe hell lower the price and I can get it to you guys even cheaper then that. By the way, its 350 right now for S13 and S14. Also, Ill try to get it too 340 if I can. Can someone tell me how many people want it for S13 and how many want it for S14?

they said 390 w/ free shipping was the best they could do. 300 isn't gonna happen from what it looks like. Looks like 350's the best price we've got. I've asked my friend about Koni Yellows. I hope he'll get back to me soon.

I want to see how much shipping will really cost. Anyone have any clue how much a set weighs and what the dimensions are when its all put together?

I agree whole heartily, the only thing is these shocks retail at $475 for the S13 and $500 for the S14. I had to jump through some hoops just to get the S14's in there. If anyone can find them for $300 thats awesome I'll go in on em. Other than that I don't think we'll be able to get them much cheaper.

Yep, these damn things are hard to get cheap. The ebay sellers are getting hooked up and theyre considered selling this stuff cheap. I may go under 350, but i doubt, no matter how much *** kissing, I can ever talk my way to 300. For that price I think a group buy would be the reason why he wouldnt sell it to me. I think my hookup buys them for around that much.

GEEZ!!! Your guy is getting them from arrowspeed (in independence mo)for under $330. Fed ex can ship them out for under $20. I shipped a computer to cali (33lbs) for $10.00 with fedex.If he ships them out of state there should be no taxes!!

The only time I've EVER been able to get the at $300 was when my friend sold his car and needed to get rid of his "new in box" shocks.

Ya. No more useless posts. If you are a vendor tell us your final price and we will take orders from there.

Just for you info, not that you know me or who my hookup is, its not coming from arrowspeed. These would be coming straight from KYB. They would send me a huge crate filled with shocks/stuts. I only guessed on shipping I never found out the shipping size or weight. Also, I agree that there shouldn't be any taxes. I never promised anything. I simply said this is what I can do. The reason that there is taxes is because they can't set it up as a group buy. I am having to set-up an account with them to get that price and buy one bulk order. Its kinda like the more you buy the cheaper it gets...... Also for the record, I CAN order through arrowspeed and its not under $330 for the set. Like I said before, I went through the trouble to help out other NICO members. If I had know that I would have gotten static I never would have helped. I've talked with many of you before and we've gotten along great, all I ask is don't assume anything and if I am trying to help don't give me grief for doing it. My offer still stands, If anyone wants help in getting these shocks then ask. If you think that a cheaper price is out there then by all means go and get it.

Silent Drifter, I disagree. This game of who can get me the best initial price is a wash. This thread proves it.

TireRack could have already shipped you the product by now. You could be installing your new struts RIGHT NOW!!!

Buy from TireRack, and you'd be paying to a company that helps sponsor NICO. You'd have contact via email, phone, and message board to a TireRack rep(Grant), in the event of mis-boxing or any other mishap.

Since when does cheapest price equal quality product AND quality service? Never.

Give TireRack a shot. You know who you're dealing with, you know how to contact them for any reason, should any trouble arise. You know the price, because it's the same price, as advertised, for everyone.

If you've got money to burn, go with the best, the tried & true, the people you know you can contact. The price, as stated above by many, is competitive everywhere.

Communication is everything. Customer service is everything.

Hasn't Grant@TireRack or Enjuku earned your business yet?

^^^I agree with you. The flipside of that would be the sponsors of NICO giving us a deal. If I was made of money I would absolutely already have them. I'm not. I need them and I'm poor. Nothing but love for the sponsors but the consumer determines the price and if someone can get it for cheaper I don't think we should pay $100 or even $50 more just because someone pays for a window on the left side of the screen.
