    PRICE DIFFERENCE

    was looking into getting the lake country 4000 pad washer. autogeek had a 25% off this weekend so was going to order it $180 well got to looking around many other online retailers were at $149 so my question is why is ag $31.00 highter than the other places.

    IMO I don't care who is selling it, it is the most overpriced product I have ever seen in my life

    The fact that they regularly do 20-25% may be why they have it priced higher.

    Edit: it actually used to be 149.99 at Autogeek so it's possible that it's a manufacturer price increase that hasn't shown up other places yet.

    Are prices the same every where on every thing you buy? Another reason they call it "shopping".

    I like the Detail Guardz pad washer a little better than the bucket ones. I have one of the DH for washing and rinsing but they are also different types for slightly different uses (on machine vs off pad cleaning).

    It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.

    Ag i believe does price match but there not going to PM and then give 25% off.

    The mark it up because most people will only buy during a sale and $135 is better than most. Probably not a high margin product.

    They do the same with IK.

    I'd rather have 2 full sets of pads for the cost. Used mine once.

    First time I used it I thought "So i take this electric tool and run it over a bucket of water? PRICE DIFFERENCE"

    I'm too dumb to do that safely PRICE DIFFERENCE

    "Know thyself..."
