Brand new in the box coilovers for your 6th Gen.....

I just hooked up a Ctech member with the same product and ordered an extra set. No pics as of yet.....probably won't be any when they arrive either as I'd prefer not to open the packaging. See Megan's website if you need to know what they look like.

32 levels of adjustability. Complete with adjustable camber top mounts. $900 + Shipping from 63005 (STL, MO).


Interested? PM me.

few tips and please dont take this in a bad way

people don't really know you, you're selling something for about regular retail price with no pictures, I totally understand you don't wanna open the box, but what about if they ship something defective to you and you never inspect it ? you should open the box, snap some pictures and I'm sure someone will be interested, a lot of members are considering coilovers on the site. but you have to provide details / pictures / trust boosters. you may have a good reputation on celicatech, but someone could have copied your nick name and try to scam someone taking advantage of your good reputation elsewhere. u

good luck with the sale, I'm sue you'll find a buyer here for the right price.

Awesome......they subsidize their price with other products. Dealer rules with Megan are that they can't sell for lower than a price I'm not allowed to mention. I'll go ahead and say $792 shipped is nowhere near that number; Consequently, I can't do that. If your not in the market for a product you already have, then I'm not sure what relevance your post has here.

Culpable......thanks for the tip(s). I'm on all the sites with the same name. Manufacturers warranties will take care of the aforementioned scenario. I'm selling it and I'm not about to create any problems for myself in the remote possibility that there is something wrong with them. Besides, suppose there were defective....couldn't I just snap some pics of a set that weren't and post them up here? Unless you're here in person to see them for yourself, then I can show you anything and you wouldn't know the difference. That said, I am not opening the box to snap pics when it doesn't make any difference in a potential customer's verification of the products soundness ot lackthereof. Furthermore, I am not going to screw my rep by selling a bunch of crap.....I know guys who have and that's no way of making money. I do appreciate your concern though.....It's good to have people like you around to help a brother out. smile.gif

don't worry RedRkt01, they are 892.50 + shipping from upscaleautomotive.com, not 792.

There is a relevance - you just said find a lower price and I'll match it, I don't have to be in the market, my friend can be, I buy all parts for me and my friends. Like Culp said, be straight, get pics, at least of the box.
I never said it was 792 shipped.

and Promasta - thats the listed price you are talking about, you haven't even checked how much they give it with the discount code yet. Put it this way, they express mailed it to me for 980. It is about over 100 dollars for regular mail and I am considered internation overseas. Imagine the difference plus the discount. I never even dealt with the website, dealt straight with the sales people and manager. Promasta I don't have to lie, I already own a set like these, just watching out for friends. When my friends are in the market, I am for them, I am the procurement officer. lol.

But who cares, whatever price he wants to sell it at thats all up to you to buy. I am not the seller. GL RED, still bump for a good price, I'm sure. biggrin.gif

Seriously, dude? Cause when you and I were talking I got some totally outrageous quotes from FedEx to get it to you. I even talked to my sales rep at Megan to see if he you get a better quote and it was still crazy. I wanna say it was several hundred dollars to ship it to Guam....I mean I had your zip code and everything.....no guesswork at all.

Either way, code or not, they are skirting the rules and it hurts guys like me. They call it a "discount code" or whatever in an attempt to play inside Megan's rules. That way, when questioned, they can turn to Megan and say "sure we're selling it above your stated minimum" without getting in trouble. I guess they're not advertising it as such. In the end they go outside of the rules that are designed to keep dealers competitive. Guys who are starting out like me just can't play ball with huge stores that subsidize their prices with other products proceeds.

Thats true RED, I totally understand the market concept. I didn't know what the covered costs were, since I've been searching, yours is STILL a good price. Compared to Ebay you got a good thing going keep it up, at least you are offering us alternatives.

- how the story goes is that FEDEX shipping for me was indeed a mistake on their part, in return I've asked they send it the next best which is Express mail USPS. a few days as well. Do you sell other stuff? Real interested.

I'm reluctant to say yes because I lack the capacity to deal with a bunch of people asking for stuff, but yes I do. My website is www.Celica-Alltrac.com, but it is not up and running. I've had continual problems sorting out site development with a friend, but I've broken that arrangement. I'm about to start working with a freelance developer and I think that I'll have a site up in a month or so (I've said that before....a lot). I cater primarily to 4th Gen guys because that is where my roots are (12 years and running). However, my webstore is intended to be a place for ALL Celica drivers of ALL generations. I probably know half as much about the 6th Gen as aI do about 4th and 5th Gens, but that'll all change once I have my hands in it all the time.

What all are you looking for? If I don't carry it I'll try to set up an arrangement where I do. My mantra is basically "If they make it for a Celica I want to deal it." So what are you looking for?

Thats really cool - all gens...I'm looking for poly engine mounts or bushings for my 6th gen. Factory ones don't last long enough. Its good you are breaking into the 6th gen market, you'd be surprised as I am how much accessories JDM especially that they sell for the celi 6th gen, more than Hondas in terms of OEM JDM accessories I think. This market I think youd make the most out of.

Do you realize that those "rules" have the exact opposite effect when it comes to competition? According to the rules, dealers are not allowed to compete on price. WTF? Very communistic and clearly a violation of the Antitrust Act. A seller should be able to sell his wares to any buyer for whatever price he wants. Period.

Sorry for the thread jack but I hate going shopping for something and everyone has it the same price because of such rules. Think Ipod, Wii, Saturn, high end appliances like Viking and Wolf....I could go on for hours. It anti-American and an infringement on freedom.

i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this.

Yeah, that's def a thread jacking. We don't need to be concerned with that here. Irrespective of your views the rules are the rules and that's the way it is. Sorry to be a dick, but I think you can probably find an appropriate forum to vent rather than here.

I just found a super cool TRD multi box and had it shipped here from Hong Kong for next to nothing.....so I know what you mean.
