nigelhicks Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 hahahhaaha classic - But ... if you think that $120 + shipping at probably $60 + tax 14% and import duties 30% ....You are close to R2500 TK-Sp3cialiSt 1
rock Posted July 19, 2013 Author Posted July 19, 2013 No import duties on wheels and surely the distributors not paying retail for these in the first place?
AuctionLamb Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 Guys....I know that you (people living on the hub) believe that every shop, person selling, supplier is against you. No one...I mean NO ONE are allowed to make a profit the way most of you going on about prices. It is a business, to make money you have to add some $$$$ on items. Still love you all...peace! KENDA 1

Absolutely entitled to make a profit.....but a fair profit ( reasonable). And that is only determined by the consumer. Especially in this day and age where price transparency is becoming a key negotiating tool. r0adrunner, Meezo and M L 3

Especially in this day and age where price transparency is becoming a key negotiating tool. Import your own like I do or many other bike shops are doing. Cannot blame the guy for taking the risk of making good profit for selling 10 wheels. If he knew the market was strong enough to sell 1000 or 2000 wheels he could drop the price and make less profit. Our little community is just too small, we even do not or cannot support a Disneyland franchise. We need the Hub to keep ourselves amused. carbon29er 1
