datboiroy: AWESOME TRANSHIPPER! UNAUTHORIZED INTERNET SALES!

Man I don't understand why people are so sandy-******'d over this. He offers good prices for new items. He obviously isn't a scammer or anything given his feedback...

You sign your name on a contract that says you will follow rules, then break them. You are hurting the industry and breaking the law.
Takes no integrity.
That's why.

Man if I was joshualittle I'd feel like such an *******.

Meh, it was destined to happen sooner or later.. sooner is always better though.

Definitely better than finding out after the fact.

[shaneb]

Is this the shop owner? I dont think its fair to right away cut the shop off if its some employee breaking the rules without them knowing.
Dont know how much product he has sold so it could be without knowledge of anyone else at the shop..

taking products worth over 1000$ total and selling them for less. and you think the owner dosn't know?
hm...

I'll give you the integrity part, but how is it hurting the industry? Why don't manufacturers like online sales?


I'm not trying to set guns ablaze or start an efight or anything, I just really don't understand

No it is not the shop owner. Shop owner is Sam the same guy that supplies lyttleviet with all the stuff that he tranships.

Ironically this question has been left unanswered despite numerous times logging in since ..

Both are sourced from the same shop and yes the owner is quite well aware.

Because it kills the shop next to him when his online prices are less than his.
You keep people in business when you don't have a super competitive market or monopoly on a product in a area.
There's only 4 ID dealers in houston area. They would lose business to this.

This is definitely not the first character I caught from this specific store doing the exact same stuff. I've have discussions with the owner about his other two "sellers" littleviet and 02accord.
Funny that immediately after I talked to the owner littleviet pm'ed someone to let them know that all of a sudden he couldn't get ID.

Funny how that works. My guess... the owners is on on it.

[6spdcoupe]

He is most certainly in on it. He has made attempts to aquire other lines that he has since been 'banned' from getting. However he doesnt tell the whole truth to even these guys selling for him.

[shaneb]

Wow, I guess My boy Roy is "layin low" like he told me he was gonna do.

[Fiercetimbo17]

Did not know the level he was selling on, someone has to know, seeing this happened before im guessing some of the companies do not care as long as they are moving product...

It's a very simple equation, really.

Excellent company->
excellent products->
poor Dealer selection->
trans-shipping->
decreased quantity of honest, legit dealers->
decreased business for excellent company->
company must maintain livable profit margin->
company has a choice to lower build quality on products->
you now receive 'not as they used to be' products.

ID is one of a few companies doing things right (cutting trans-shipping, monitoring internet sales) and that's why they spit out top quality products that you all (end-user) enjoy. Arc as well. Memphis. Boston. Morel. DD. Elettromedia.--just a few examples.

it's not a matter of not caring it's a matter of having proof. some of the companies allow you to sell online some don't the one's that don't have to have proof and i guess they got the proof they needed in this case.

Does JL still bill them? Does Directed still want their money?

What does that all mean? I want the whole story!
