Well this has came up here and there.



I raise prices as my costs go up. As in the 99 spec

rear spoiler. I can get them for $300-400. NOW It takes

$100 to ship it. Now boxes, time, shipping within Japan

hints $600. Well actually they are $610.95



Now lately the spoilers are costing upward of $500 each

without any of the above. Im trying like hell to keep the price

from raising.



I dont raise the prices for personal gain. I dont raise prices to

barely beat other companies, and I wont raise them when they

ask me to either.



Im working on getting some of my used parts from somewhere

different that I found, but nothing has worked out yet.



No I dont go to junkyards and pick out parts and sell them for

jacked up prices. I dont even have half the time that would take.



If prices do go up, its due to PAYPAL taking 3% off the top which

sucks, soon I will do all business threw a JP bank, so each transfer

from PAYPAL is $9. its not much, but it adds up.



Well just some good info for you Guys and Gals.....

Sounds like you are a little bit frustrated. Your prices are freaking awesome. I have been looking at the prices you charge coompared to other and you beat them hands down. Not sure who was bugging you but you do a good job!

Your prices are better than a lot of vendors, even if you the prices do go up a little. Its all good.

Yeah im getting them to where it works the best. I wish I got my used parts at a junkyard, I would be making MAD cash, but I dont have the time to go out and take them off cars. Some prices have gone up since all I could do it give estimates on shipping costs. Some of the parts I have shipped out I didnt even make a full dollar haha so I had to raise the price up since my estimate was off.

This happens on and off, but I have shipped at least one now of every style part, ie hood, sideskirts, bumpers and small parts.

We might close May 28th till June 20th or so.



I will make sure all the orders are out that come in that

time frame, but I will stop collecting orders unless the

customers that order are willing to wait.



Im coming to Cali in June around the 1st, going to stop by

some shops and do some family stuff, then off to Chicago

by car, stay with a friend and look around (sites and *****)

then off to NY (sites and *****) then back to Cali. Then hop

a flight back to Japan to start JT pretty much FULL time. Doesnt

look like I will be re-called or be held back in the Navy like I

was preparing for.



JT-Imports will be taking on some MAJOR changes. Here are

some of them. Webpage will be completly re-done by a

professional. Wearhouse will be in work. Personal are already

in work.... Also we will have a different top page, with links to

JT-Imports, and several others. This wont be for a few months, but just to let you

know our future plans.



Things have been slow on my behalf, but my applogizes go out

for the delays. Its a lot tuff then you think getting out of the military

vise coming in. Also people know they can fruck with you, since you

dont want to do anything wrong, or they will try to hold you. Nothing

drastic, but even just getting pissed off at a high ranking person

then you is all they need. Some poeple are born losers. ANYWAY....



Im working as hard and as fast as I can, so please understand. Not

that anyone has really complained, but complaints are also welcome.

I mean dont bash me, due to the fact is Im always willing to work things

out, around or anyother ways...



Sincerely

Jason
