chilli Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 Tell you what , you go and fit RLTC and then come back here and see what you thought of it. We offer a £80 Discount on fitting RLTC if you buy the fields harness as it saves nearly 3 hours work. ok point taken if it's that much of a time saver then I guess it's worth it... (still a lot for plugs and wires though!) yep end of thread hijack, Martin I'll pm you about rltc fitting as this is relavant to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chipmunk Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 thought it might stop him talking crap take a chill pill m8te, - Tom has the problem not you, and I already explained earlier its being dealt with today with the relevant parties concerned Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 ok point taken if it's that much of a time saver then I guess it's worth it... Took me about an hour and abit to cut and solder the ECU wires in the passenger seat well on my RLTC, and I've never done it before. Only 6 wires cut and 2 spliced.

Pete Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 Well done Pete. Wanna job? What about health and saftey for my employee? Ah! But I didn't say how long it took for me to do the ABS wires though....and remove the seat and carpet...mount the box...configure it etc. etc. I didn't include tea break either. That was just wires on the ECU loom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonball Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 Well I just saw this...first I have heard and have just spoken to Tom... Unfortunately the harness, which purported (and I thought) to be unused was cut up and I will happily refund or replace of course...no drama. All sorted.

BURT Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Here is a new one:- £209 - In stock. http://www.mkivstore.com/provisioning/eshop/index.php?target=products&product_id=1688 you robbing B*****D... £170 from dusty and yes thats deliverd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnA Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 I don't understand: how come I got it for less than £170 from the States FULL RETAIL and people on this board can't even match this price? Dollar has gone down since, and no need for overseas postage etc. Am I missing something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonball Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Its called VAT John and a tenner profit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 and no need for overseas postage etc. How does it get here from the states? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnA Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Yes, but traders don't pay full retail, do they? And their postage costs would be spread amongst several other items in the same shipment (one would expect!) Otherwise what's the point in having yet another link in the chain? I understand VAT and a tenner profit (reasonable) --- still the prices I would see quoted in the UK were far in excess of that. I am perplexed, bamboozled, dazed and confused:blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand VAT and a tenner profit (reasonable) --- still the prices I would see quoted in the UK were far in excess of that. I am perplexed, bamboozled, dazed and confused:blink: Depends who makes them and the pricing policy - these are obviously priced to get rid i..e £130.00 ($220) cost price for the harness and £40.00 delivery If actually sold with a profit in mind then they would be approx £200 cost delivered to the trader But what does it matter - everyone has a choice and no-one seemed to care about cost prices when Martin was doing fantastic HKS Cam prices etc?

JohnA Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Depends on weight. If something weighs as much as the moon, then courier costs may escalate. (I've seen an old one somewhere last month, wolves were howling that night) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucifer Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 you robbing B*****D... £170 from dusty and yes thats deliverd Now I take great offence to that. Should I? If you like I'll post up exactly how much and how the price is made up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucifer Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 The price to me is:- £192.70 Which includes UK VAT and Import duty. I dont even charge VAT. Some trader bring things in at a devalued rate, We do not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitesupraboy2 Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Now I take great offence to that. Should I?

Chiefgroover Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Somtimes its down to middle men, distributors etc. If all manufacturers would sell direct to all traders the benifit would pass on to the public. Once the middle man is involved the prices go up, its an unecessary burden for all. Still, he who has in stock and can supply on demand deserves a decent profit.

JohnA Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Yes, 'vapourware' will always be cheaper than products that sit on shelves ready to be dispatched. Unfortunately the potential market here is small, so it's not worth for a trader to buy a few dozens and expect to shift them any time soon. So we're left with an inefficient system.
