If she said its probably going to be a waste of your time I'd forget about it for now. You can always check with them in a couple months and see if they can do it then.
Ive gone without one this long I can wait another year if I need to. Thanks again for all your trouble in getting it organized.

When you think about it, RDL is basically giving up around 50k in sales. it must be nice to be in a position to turn down that kind of an order.

I feel they are playing chicken as well. Trying to get as many people to order at full price as possible. When business slows down in Nov.. or Dec. then I think they will change their tune. Much like they did last year.

I'm not sure they are giving up anything yet. They may well be playing a smart hand of cards. You guys keep sending 'em and I'll keep adding 'em! We'll see who folds when all bets are in.

Fammdw. You stated this:
"It would be hard for me as a business owner to say no to an organized 100+ customer sale during the slowest time of my retail year". I doubt the wnter is the slowest time of the year for RDL It is probably their busiest time. Who wants to be without a seat in the summer ? Most people here in Canada get their seats modified during the winter when their bikes are in storage. |
