Eibach Pro from Amazon.com for $108 shipped! - Toyota Yaris Forums

sqcomp · 02-14-2012, 09:47 AM

Perhaps some of you guys can jump on this all too good of a deal...

If this price were from ANY other seller I'd say it was too good to be true.

Go ahead and google: "Eibach 8293.140 Pro-Kit Performance Spring Kit "

Notice on the shopping section, Amazon has it at $89.60

!!!WAIT WAIT!!!

Okay, I must be lucky. I picked up the pro kit for $108 shipped from Amazon. On the google search it has it listed at the $89.60 but now what you go to the Amazon site, the price is back up to $222.

Damn! I was hoping to have a few of you guys save some money like I did.

Sorry guys.

Still, look at the search page and you'll see that $89 tag. Perhaps you might be able to cinvince Amazon to sell it at that price. I have my digital receipt that reflects that low LOW price.

I guess our $219.96 with free shipping will have to do for now.

deal must be gone, only see the 222.97 price tag now

why? · 02-14-2012, 10:56 AM

i think someone screwed up big time. Now you get to see if they will actually sell them to you for that price.

sqcomp · 02-14-2012, 12:51 PM

I agree, someone DID screw up big time. I'm thinking the price they sold it to me at was their cost.

Check it out:

@ Garm - I was looking at the Megan springs originally. I was trawling around de intervebs looking to see what was out there and BAM! I saw that price. I'm thinking to myself, "Okay, that is WAY too good to be new. Wait a sec!?! That's from Amazon...shipping FROM Amazon as new"! I double checked the Eibach kit # and IIRC the XD springs are compatible with the Yaris. I looked at the listing and rubbed my eyes a couple times to make sure I wasn't dreaming. You can bet your a$$ that I pressed the buy now button. Wouldn't you?

Unless Amazon is going to back out of the deal, the order says I'm going to receive this. If it were ANYWHERE else (except from you Garm), I'd call BS and think bait & switch. But this is Amazon. I haven't heard of them backing out of flubs like this or sending a different piece other than what is advertized.

My original thought was to get as many people in on this as possible. Apparently they caught it soon after I ordered it. *crossing fingers* Hopefully they still send me the kit because I have paid for it. This would be the win of the month for me. When you google it, Amazon still hasn't fixed the hook pricing on the search engine:

They do need to change that.

I would, in a hearbeat. I appreciate the support, but no one should pass on THAT good a deal.

fnkngrv · 02-14-2012, 01:53 PM

You got seriously lucky. They are being sold by Amazon itself. If it were a vendor from the Amazon Market they can tell you, "ooppss, we are sorry. we made a mistake and cannot sell to you for that price." When that Amazon says they have no control over their own marketplace. I ran into that on PC monitors. A vendor had mistakenly listed 26" 2500x1600 $400 monitor for 129.00. I attempted to purchase 2 and they pretty much told me whoops and get bent.

sqcomp · 02-14-2012, 02:12 PM

He he... Hey Garm, it says in your signature that you price match...

Juuuuuust kidding.

sqcomp · 02-14-2012, 11:39 PM

Just received the notification from Amazon that the springs have shipped.

Cross your fingers for the sheer blind luck of a find like this...

Sari_Y · 02-19-2012, 02:05 AM

so Jealous!

sqcomp · 02-22-2012, 09:38 PM

Landed...

Spidermandud · 02-23-2012, 01:01 AM

Boom son; lets see the aftermath :D

Mead · 02-23-2012, 02:15 PM

You didn't get lucky... Amazon got robbed

TOLMACH · 02-23-2012, 02:26 PM

I am wondering... would my car need the wheel alignment once such or similar springs are installed?

weedtank · 02-23-2012, 04:36 PM

Deal of the year for sure

sqcomp · 02-23-2012, 10:53 PM

I'm thinking that the aftermath may happen this sunday. I'll get some pics to you guys.
