WHAT! your applauding Max for going back on his word. He found out
they found a way to order directly from the sportec and receive them cheaper than Max sells them.
Max and Edgeracing just didn't want to lose 10-25 sale of rims. And what is this cheaper shipping crap? You may want to fire your shipping manager if he is using nextday air to stock your warehouse.

They are not ordering direct from Sportec
Some other distributor (like us) that had nothing to loose.
This product is pretty particular because as you may know it is only available for a VERY small portion of the market. That said, you should assume that very large numbers are not imported so importation costs are MUCH higher per item.
Now, we were faced with the fact that somebody was trying to import them in large volumes thus lowering the possible costs.
Our plans for Sportec have always been of slowly market the brand... the fact that we are organizing a Group Buy is obviously a reaction to the black-market GB posted here the past week.
If a Group Buy was in fact such a popular idea, then why not through the official source? we are organizing this because you guys want lower prices... isnt that the goal?
Maybe we should have done this on the first place.
I am not trying to tell anybody what to do, i want you to know that
