True, but they do seem able to understand money. You'd think having a part that is losing money because of returns and eating shipping costs would be something they would like to avoid. There was a time when Porsche actually cared about the reputation of their brand but those days are long gone.
+1 on the inflated price of the axle assemblies. It's hard to imagine a justification for it. They can still retail the joints for ~$150. There's only a splined rod, a couple cone washers and circlips and a little grease left for a full assembly. BTW, they also jacked the price on the misrepresented CV joints. When I first posted about them being listed as available, Sunset listed them at $73.64. A couple months later I went to order and found them at $128. The next set will come from Eric. Like you said, he cares so you know you'll get the right parts. |
