no offense to anyone in this group.
If anyone need the lights urgently, I can help.


Yeah, i'm sure...but not for the same price. In fact, i'm going to go ahead and own you --> I emailed you in april and asked about the buying these tails from you, and this is what you said (direct quote from the email):

"I can sell to u at $200 for each pair, plus $60 for express airmail and $10 more for insurance."

then you say: "Please don't ask me for discount."

I'm sure you'd be glad to sell a pair to someone for $270 --- $60 more than the GB price -- and if you say you can match that, you should be ashamed for ripping people off who contact you through ebay.

it would appear that Snap did his homework for the GB.

Congrats and thank you for doing research with different sellers/distributers and getting all of these fellow 6gc peeps the tails at a great price.

so you mean they are being shipped to our homes as we speak?.....man i cant wait....great work btw snap!
just want to carify in case someone may misunderstand me. I am not asking to make more money in here, just want to help people. I don't want to creat trouble in this GB or even in this forum.
Selling lights is not my main business. I will be more happy to know people love the JDM lights after they received.

Actually, I am also glad to know you can buy the lights in such low price.

Also, I want to carify the price I quoted to snapshotgt is for a single pair but not for GB. GB price is always much lower than a single pair price.

This is the original reply to snapshotgt on 10 APR
"Hi, I just received new Celica Tail lights today. If u have interest, I can sell to u at $200 for each pair, plus $60 for express airmail and $10 more for insurance. Since I only have 2 pairs now and they are highly demanded, please don't ask me for discount. First come First serve. Just let me know your Paypal account email address and I will send a Paypal invoice to you. "

give credit to kalokb, he is a good ebay seller, I think I have bought something off of him in the past. JDM tails usually go for about $250ish shipped so he is not trying to rip anyone off.

like i said before, Snap did his homework for everyone here.

PROJECT 6TH GEN<FS: Things up for grabs><Progress>
Update:

Here is a quote from an email i got from the company after i requested an update:

"Just heard from the supplier that there is some delay, they said the lights will start arriving early next week and they might not have 12 pairs. I am extremely sorry, but I will try everything I can to follow up with them for the latest status. I understand that everyone will be very unpatient, but a lot of things are out of my control since my supplier has a supplier. Please tell everyone to stay calm, as the lights should still be on time (4-6 weeks)."

Like he says, lets all stay calm, and they will get here when they get here. I find this annoying just like you probably do, but know nothing will change if i get worked up about it. Lets all please stay calm. wink.gif

Thanks,
snap

Now, regarding the next 7 --> direct quote from the supplier’s email to me:

"The next 7 pairs will arrive at the end of this month, and so it will be late. They explained that things are late because they have to wait for the ship date over in Japan. Please apologize to the group for me, I will try to do whatever I can to get you guys the lights ASAP."


Thanks-
