What's the catch

[Bounce]

Just ordered ATE front discs which as we know are OEM,they are £121 each,but the company are giving 35% discount.So with delivery it's costing me £160 for the pair.BMW wanted £410.So what's the catch.

I reckon they have so many wound up there arse as we are all on PF or AP

£160 for the pair

Let me know how this goes as I will order a set myself if everything is as it seems...

Massive massive markup on discs from main dealers. Ford for instance offer staff discount of 50% off the Rrp, so in theory it'd be easy to offer a 35% discount and out a few sets of discs if you have a large over stock laying about.
No different to what we do in the after market car parts... buy a big stock in at a knock down price and out it all for a quick turnaround profit.

Just to give you an idea of prices I've just picked a random part number at work....

RRP inc VAT - £7.43

Cost price inc VAT - £2.71

-35% off the rrp inc VAT - £4.83

My trade customers who spend say £5000 pcm pay £3.61 inc VAT


Its very easy to make a big offer and still make £££


It's just like the DFS "Sale" lol

BMW Direct have them for sale on ebay:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BMW-Genuin...item2a22806e4a
£410.02 + £2.95 postage for a front set - no contest

Like the 'DFS' Analogy Steve

[Steve B]

At that sort of £££ you'd be made not to buy a set for when required IMO....


and let's be honest you'd be unlucky to miss a DFS sale lol

Do they do the back ones ??
