Where is the best pricing for Poorboy's products at?



Does anyone offer a discount for autopia members or free shipping? I need to get a good spray and wipe product as well as a go-to sealant.



Any reccomendations outside of PB?
 
If your looking for cheap prices go OTC. If your looking for botique products, expect to pay some shipping charges. Its well worth the shipping charges to get good products from a good distributor. Ill be happy to pay the extra money for good products.
 
it's not free shipping....but ExcelDetail.com has come through for me on multiple occasions now...awesome customer service. paying the $10 or whatever for shipping is well worth knowing you're going to get what you need, etc, in a timely manner. :)



Example: Patrick had a supply issue with one of his vendors and was not able to ship my full order. rather than send an incomplete shipment to me, he sent me the missing product from his PERSONAL supply. top notch!!!! :woot:

Agree'd 100%. I was shipped the wrong order, and Patrick promptly shipped me the right one right after. Amazing customer service. I also like that Patrick will usually include a MF towel in your purchase as well as some tasty candy :spot

Danase.com fo' sho! He offers a 10% Autopia discount, and Bob (owner) has his own private forum here (at the bottom of the forum index page). Great selection, good pricing, and excellent CS.



Recommendation--try out Chemical Guys. ;) Danase' sells those too.



For a spray and wipe type product, check out Danase' Speed Shine (made by CG, very similar to CG Speed Wipe). As far as sealants, I have been disappointed by PB EX, PB EXP and CG TopCoat. CG M-seal and F-Seal are okay, but my favorite is still Four Star UPP.
 
I can never get enough of 4* UPP for my sealant. I have yet to top it with a wax because I don't really need to but am interested in how it changes the look a bit.
 
autogeek is another good place to order from. If you type in autopia in the coupon box you get 5% off your order.
 
Cut out the middleman, order direct from poorboysworld.com and you'll get a free MF towel.

Actually because of that one free towel and how impressed I was with its quality I then decided

to order all my towels from them. Purty shrewd on their part. Their waffle weave is grade A and the Mega Towel with silk binding is the best I've tried to date. I may order a few more waffle weaves when I place my order for trim dressing and wheel cleaner
 
Another vote for danase.



He's a Forum Sponsor, and you can get other branded products in the same shipment..plus the 10% discount is great. He's running some nice deals on CG polishes too ;)

I hate to but in butt the "middleman" is where you can get the deals at. Most of the sites offer at least a 5-10% discount on items and their regular prices should be the exact same as buying direct or pretty darn close to it.
 
Nothing against Steve at Poorboys but I ordered direct from him and didn't get any towel or freebie ... not complaining as he sent what I paid for in good form.



The best deals I have got have been from the middlemen like Danase, Autogeek, etc. Their prices and customer service are excellent and I would recommend them highly.
 
I have ordered from Poorboys (about $140 worth of stuff and got no towel for the RETAIL price I paid .............from the manufacture.



I have had better prices with Danase.com (middle man) then the people who make the stuff.



In my eyes, that speaks poor on Poorboys (no pun either). For that, I do not buy there products any longer.



Also I go to Danase.com for 95% of my stuff. The other 5 is stuff he does not have...yet LOL
 
Mike B.,



When the people "who make the stuff" offer their product through others, they usually sell direct at full retail. Otherwise their resellers complain that they can't compete. So Poorboys is following standard business practices which is a good thing for their resellers. I have not seen anything on Poorboy's web site to suggest that anyone automatically gets free towels.



If these are your reasons for not buying Poorboy's products, they aren't very good....

No, not upset at all. It is funny (and pretty sad) they poorboys own site is more expensive then "the middle man". I can go on 3 to 5 sites and get PB stuff cheaper from a middle guy (with a % mark up) then PB own site!



That was the basis of my last post if you did not get it. The towel is something I could careless on. Paying full retail form the people who makes it, PB, is pretty bad.



I do thank the middle guys who are vendors that at least give discount (even with there % mark up)...
