[QUOTE="snb778, post: 1303164, member: 557170"] Well, it obviously seems that their higher priced items are marked up more. And im hoping that most of you work in, or own shops that dont sell shit, xplode and insignia and dual HU's. Unless ordered for a specific customer... In saying that...there is a lot more oppertunity to make money there. Afterall, the manufacturer is probably asking the same price for their stores, as they are here in the US. BESIDES ALL THIS....dont say its hard to make a lot of money here in the US...until you can pop off alarms/remote start in just over an hour >2 Thats when you start making money.... Or how about tinting....personally, i dont see how more custom shops dont do more tinting...you buy a friggin roll of 36in tall tint by like 100 ft in length for lets say $75. Cost to tint a full size 4 door car...200-220....you do lets say 8 FULL cars with that roll (no idea...might be able to do more)...... with those 8 cars...you just made over 1500 bucks profit...... Now lets look at your summer..if your a busy store lets say you tint a car a day for the first 3 months into spring and summer, so that about 90 cars...90*220= 19,000 in friggin window tinting in 3 months....even if thats in half a year its not that bad.
