Allsports Price?

ads245 · 02-09-2009, 08:14 PM

The Allsports Long travel, seems to fit my needs perfectly for my 2008 yamaha drive. I just do not get why some stores such as CPP sell it for $679, while others sell it for $1200, which is ridiculous. At the golf cart tire store (golfcarttirestore.com) though they have it for $549?

Are you positive you are pricing the same kit?

That's whats strange, I am, you should go to the golf cart tire store and look at the right bar. Click on Yamaha lifts and scroll down, you will see it with the purple a-arms. Then check CPP, and look under Yamaha lift kits.

I do not know the answer to your question. Most full line dealerships have overhead and employees, some online websites can operate from home and drop ship parts. You get what you pay for - What you see on the internet may or may not be what you want. I would not be able to survive by selling at 10% over cost...

CPP is a site sponsor, the other place is not. Just remember to support those who support you...

I couldn't agree more, something must be up.The saying you get what you pay for is one of the most true statements there is. I always go the extra mile to do and gets things right the first time. If people have time to do something half way, they must have time to do it over. CPP and Radical Golf Carts offer better info and pictures anyway, more professional.

Well I know that All Sports have a MSRP that they go buy... Obviously they are not even close to that. So I can see that I am going to have to get to the bottom of that. I don't even know what they are thinking of selling that lift for that because thats almost what we pay for the lift... that might even be less. Trust me when I say this, there is something wrong with that price!

And don't think about the profit margin everyone is marking their stuff up!!! Think about how much SEO's are and how much it is to have a good website at the top!!! It is ridiculous how much we have to pay to have our website even being thought of on the first page of Google! Sorry I am just venting.

I need a BEER!

Okay the purple arm kits are from JAKES not ALL SPORTS thats why on the tire store site those are so much less, they dont carry jakes, just allsports, good kits but not the long travel from jakes, there ya go

bhfear, I don't get what you are saying, on the (golfcarttirestore.com) they specifically say the only lift kits they use are Allsports. Plus I know for a fact that the kit with the purple a-arms on their website is Allsports, not Jakes. On Allsports website it even has the exact same picture and description. Also Jakes only has black a-arms. Please explain more about what you are saying. Thanks. Also, Radical golf carts, your website allows you to choose the color of the lift, not like anyone else. I really like that option, instead of emailing. Nice.

There is one possible reason, the kit is $549. Below the kit there is an option for powder coating for $40 extra and you get to choose the color, which might be false, because Allsports already should powder coat and paint the kits, the seller just has to order them depending on the customers needs. Plus, (golfcarttirestore.com) charges about $60 for shipping.
