Forum sponsorship - C-ONE, TOMS, TRD products - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #33319 13 posts Started by tangcla
Hi all,
I've just landed spot as C-ONE, TOMS and TRD distributor. Who do I have to sleep with (at least talk to laugh.gif ) about being allowed to advertise on the forums - and what's it worth?

Prices for C-ONE products will be 10-20% on top of the list price on the C-ONE website, and maybe +shipping depending on the item (if it is large, of heavy).

That's cool, but I'm afraid if one distributer is aloud to advertise, there will be a bunch that follow. You can just do what some other members do and watch the for-sale forums and post when you can get somethign others want/need. Making your sevices avalible, and advertising are two different things. I don't know though, I haven't much pull around here. I just thought I would throw my thoughts out there.

you could do it like in MR2oc where he sponsers a particular forum section and gets a banner stuck at the top that links to his site

it's not a 10-20% DISCOUNT... it's 10-20% on TOP to account for shipping and customs laugh.gif

Hopefully it will be less than 20% for you guys cos I think your tax system isn't as, err, vigorous as ours for imports.

i don't quite understand - and additional 10%-20% on top of actual cost which covers shipping and customs --

hmm - sounds like regular price to me if you buy regular price and pay for shipping and custom --

correct me if i'm wrong

ok, so it goes something like this, whatever the price is in JPY, convert it to USD (or wherever you're from tongue.gif) and add 10% on top of the price for shipping costs.

Of course, the shipping cost is dependent on the item - if it's something small, the shipping cost is negligible and can be factored in. If it's big or bulky, like a manifold, bodykit etc. then shipping will cost a few hundred bucks (if not a few thousand - friend experienced that firsthand)on its own!

why are you considering a manifold a big piece?

its one the SMALLEST pieces c-one makes
