I agree having the vendors that help out on here are very valuable. Moe's & Retroshop in particular, and also Goose w/ Kicker. When it comes time to order my exhaust & intake, I'm buying from Moe's. When I upgrade my speakers, I'll use Kickers. There are exceptions to everything. What gets me, is I see 30+ vendors listed on the side of the page, and we hear from a handful of them.
Now, I know I don't see every post on this site. I know they all don't have the time to sit around on the forum, they are running a business. I'm sure some of them are lurking around. I also know there are ways that companies can track internet talk about them... happened to me on a motorcycle forum. (I complained to the forum about their customer service in my last 2 transactions, they stepped up and made it right). I'm just saying... some of these bigger companies, could offer up something every once in a while. I'm not looking for something constant or year round, but once every other month... something like that would be nice.
To the guys that do partake on here... your reputation precedes you and from what I can tell, you've done an upstanding job with customer service and helping people out. You guys are doing it the right way. Too many businesses are missing that aspect of it anymore. I applaud you!
