while i agree with this, i think AG (and scruffy and whoever was involved in the milling file) should be compensated for their hard work in creating the file. I'm sure it took a lot of time, a lot of effort. Up to them really, but i feel they deserve something for their hard work.

What kind of FA can you offer the forum? If you were young and had some money to play with where would you put it? I'm leaning toward psychical commodities and extremely cautious about real estate. Any thoughts?

(phelan rant)
look, i'm an engineer too, okay? i understand there are significant costs associated with low production run items, especially something like this. blocks of metal aren't cheap, the labor involved isn't cheap, etc. etc. blah blah blah. my project at work is a limited production run too, it's a PITA to figure out the tooling just to build one f*cking unit. so i get it. hell, we all get it. some will justify to themselves that the end product is worth the price of admission, some won't. such is the nature of business / capitalism. you want to make this a mass production run? make the initial set, and ship the damn thing to china. $5 a piece, made out of craplastic. there ya go, mass produced.

what i fail to see as productive is the random insults getting thrown about. there's no need for that. and how the hell did you guys start talking about rep?? this is nuts.

you're busy trying to defend yourself that's something way further down the line. all it really needed was a justification of the cost (i.e. what you posted already, like $700 for expenses, $x for labor, etc.). that's it, and we can all be on our merry way. no harm, no foul (unless you're kouman coulibaly in which case F*CK YOU i kid, i kid).

i salute you as an engineer, but please, be nice to some of us customers.

Please keep the thread on topic. There's no need to insult or attack another member.


Quality parts will require a lot of money. There are forum members who are buying a $1200/exhaust where we also have members that are rocking $4500 Amuse or $4000 Saclam Limited Production exhaust. There are people who are very happy with their cheap replica kits on their Z, but then you also have members who are shipping $5K-$6K Amuse or Mines kit straight from Japan. Quality stuff are not for everyone but those who want it, WILL get it. There is no need to argue over pricing. If it fits your budget (and most importantly, your "theme" of your car), then get it. If it doesn't, well there's no need to add negative comment.

AgStacker, I'm not sure how many forums you've been a registered member before, but you'll ALWAYS get positive and negative comments in a thread. It's unavoidable. You have to take it easy and ONLY reply to the comments you feel necessary.

As for vendor situation, I have allowed AgStacker to develop and get feedback from members. I usually do this with ALL companies (for research and development). However, in order to be fair with our paying sponsor, ONE MUST BE VENDOR when the product is ready to sell. I have already assured AgStacker I am willing to work out a good pricing (even if it's one time fee) on sponsorship whenever he is ready to sell his product(s).

Thanks.
