Default GROUP BUY, GROUP BUY, GROUP BUY ------> S4 rear valance, and side skirts!!!!!!!

Hi all, I have found a wholesaler that will consider doing a group buy for OEM S4 rear valance, and side skirts!!!!! I have forwarded the part number's posted in the S4 install tech page https://www.audiworld.com/tech/ext49.shtml
to the wholesaler. Their prices are already the best/lowest I have been able to find, but they are willing to give a group buy discount. Please email me if you are SERIOUSLY INTERESTED ONLY !!!! Remember its all OEM stuff, NOT aftermarket.

Default Listing a price would definitely help your GB...

...or else you'll get a ton of emails that ask "HOW MUCH?!?!" with no further interest.
BTW....ygm ;-)

Default Price depends on volume...

volume depends on price.

Ask the distributor to come up with tiered pricing...0-10 kits, 11-20 kits....

Or flat rate pricing...20 or more kits at XYZ price, less than 20 kits at full price. Honestly, this way is a little easier to manage. With the tiered pricing, some people hold out to see if the price drops below a certain level...this hurts your count. With this way, everybody knows from the outset what they will pay...the only question is whether or not you hit the headcount you need to get the discount.

My $0.02

Default you comparing *just* the skirt $?

those actually aren't bad prices; the whole deal was quoted by my dealer at $890, which is $300+ less than what other dealers are charging for the same list. I'm now getting parts at the counter under employee pricing, which supposedly is cost + 10%.
