I think if everybody charged "the lowest price" we wouldn't have a competitive economy. I've bought from Wyckoff and received good service. But I've also bought from others and received good service -- and I'm headin' over to Race and Street in a few weeks to get some major add-ons put on because Bill is the only one I've contacted who offered very fair pricing and also agreed to paint and install at a reasonable price. I've written e-mails to four other places inquiring about their advertisements, and never received even a little response. One thing I really do like about Wyckoff's site is that it's very well organized and everything has a price posted. I'm more bothered by sites that list "stuff" but make you guess at what they're charging. Very few sites have as extensive a collection of PT-related items as does Wyckoff -- and Wyckoff quite often carries them BEFORE anyone else does. And that counts for something, with me.
The company I work for charges higher prices than most anyone else in our field. And we've been in business 54 years. Our motto is:
"We never worry about how little someone else charges.
After all, they know what their time is worth!"
But that motto can be a double-edged sword.
Do lower prices help create bigger sales?
Yes, they can.
I've spent $250 with Wyckoff.
I'm spending over $3,000 with Race and Street.
But it's never the only part of the story. I value both companies as much as they value me.
