Mobile Tradition - Price reductions across the board...

[bferman]

I was just perusing Mobile Traditions website and I noticed several parts I have ordered recently have been reduced in price significantly. For example, you can get a new one piece dash for $991. The price was over $1400 just a month ago. New door panels are offered at $248. I think they were around $350+ last month. All kinds of stuff is marked down. Just my luck as I'm wrapping up my restoration. Kills me to see all these deals... after the fact. Good news for anyone looking to replace parts. Enjoy the price decrease while it lasts.

Blunt can usually beat any Mobile Traditions price so the discounts could be even be deeper. Xmas come early!...or maybe it's Xmas come late...

wish they could be as competitive as these guys.

Great people to deal with too.

Armond - make sure you compare some of the prices against Mobile T's current pricing. Mobile T has come way down. I just looked up a new front grill. $393 on your site vs $259 on Mobile T's. It seems they've dropped the price significantly on trim. New door brakes are $78 bucks (109 on your site). I just bought them two weeks ago for $120+ a piece.

That's enough of me making a sales pitch for Mobile T. I was just surprised how much some of the pricing has dropped from what I paid over the last few months. It very depressing for me...but hopefully good for anyone starting out on a resto.

wow you're right. I just checked the the euro center rear section bumper

# 51121815656. $ 214.77 from Mobile. $ 264.10 from Tischer BMW. The euro seam covers are cheaper too. Glad to see they've gotten aggressive with their pricing. I hope business picks up for them.

Enjoy it while it lasts!

I paid $1,150 for a quarter panel in May 2009 and the price has been slashed to $898. Time to stock up!

Hmmm...price parts right, and they sell. What a concept.

Maybe they were going for the Calvin & Hobbes sales model when he was selling lemonade for $100 a glass. "Sales are slow?" "I only need to sell one."

The dot-com market is gone.

hope it ain't a clearance sale to dump parts going NLA....

(ever the optimist!)

Where's Max w/ all the answers?

After I first looked at this thread during lunch, I checked out the price for the tii fuel pump - still the same exhorbitant figure.

I just compaired the price on some rear brake drums that I purchased from Blunt. The price at Trade Motion is $75.43, my price from

Blunt was $53.82. Just a point of reference.

I believe price drop is coming from BMW originally. Don't know why, must be the current worldwide weak market, or maybe Euro is not doing so well. Some tii parts are still outrageous though.

For Real????? Everything I've looked at is still in the "extortion" price range. I'm looking for rear euro center and cap over riders and the price is still way up...dlm

And door seals are $201. I don't think they've come down.
