NST dropped its vendors - Toyota Yaris Forums

cali yaris · 01-24-2012, 02:47 PM

I'll keep this simple and professional; that's how we roll.

As of last night (with no notice at all), NST canceled its Reseller program.
They further requested that vendors remove NST products from their websites.

(Um, how are we supposed to sell remaining inventory if it's not on our site?)

That's not going to happen.

So -- we'll be having a little "NST CLEARANCE SALE" to move our remaining inventory. Check the online store for details in the next few days.
We are also actively doing R&D on new products for the Yaris and other platforms that NST no longer supports.

Tell your friends.

Going out of business...

(just a guess)

I think he can't afford to have a wholesale program, which is reasonable.

how he handled it is another story, IMO.

He should be happy to buy back all of the products he'd like you to "not advertise", right?

I was thinking the same thing. If he's going to demand you remove them from your site then he should be willing to buy them back.

Oh well. I'm looking forward to MI's pulley anyhow. Guess I should sell my NST while I can.

cali yaris · 01-24-2012, 04:34 PM

He is willing to buy back stock. But why would I do that?
Then he can sell at retail.

I can sell at a discount and still make something.
Which is exactly what we're going to do.

cali yaris · 01-25-2012, 01:24 PM

Why yes... someone did.

It's a shame. NST came on so strong with products for our little car. Too bad the customer service went to crap. Thanks for MI for staying strong in our community! I'm planning on replacing my NST lite crank pulley with an MI crank pulley....

ilikerice · 01-25-2012, 05:03 PM

I want a red tow hook, front and rear =)

Viperoni · 01-25-2012, 10:26 PM

Wish I could get an underdrive pulley for my Echo (for cheap)

Have you updated your store yet? Is that the newest price on it?

PM me what the new price is please. I may do the rear also.

sito · 01-26-2012, 09:54 AM

Hi Garm,

Do you just sell NST water pump pulley only?
Can PM me the price if have?

Thanks...

cali yaris · 01-26-2012, 10:01 AM

Working on the store, guys. Please note NST's new HIGHER prices on their site, and that they are sold out on most Yaris parts...
