Rogue

[xxkylexx]

I have compared IP addresses from emails coming from both TMS and Rogue. They are in the same area, but are not the same people ... or computer at least ... Besides, does it really matter?

Does the TMS actually stock anything or is everything drop shipped from the RPG warehouse?

Over the years, people have asked inappropriate questions about private business contact and relationships..who my polisher is, my annodizer, what my cost on products are...among other things. Your question here is the same as these questions...I dont publicly answer questions about private business dealings or those of my dealers, vendors, manufacturers, etc. They are private, and not not your business.

Exactly, most manufacturers do sell at MSRP whereas you say to email you for the best pricing. Why would anyone need to email you, the manufacturer, for best pricing if you're selling at MSRP? Having to email you would lead one to believe that a better price was to be had.

You have me mistaken with another AO dealer. Another dealer's marketing strategy is to have buyers e-mail them for best price.

However, if a buyer is looking for used product(in the Misc forum) which my dealers do not sell, then that is something outside this scope. Otherwise, I have many times referred customers to any one of my dealers when they are looking for new product. The needs and details of each customer determine how and where I refer them. When I make a post in the Dealer forum, its for product at MSRP, and I list the price. The only exception to this is if there is a Special, a Sale. But in that case, these sales/specials apply to my dealers as well.

Also, I dont accept Credit Cards. To my knowledge, most if not all my dealers do. I cant say for certain why customers buy from one or another, but it may be convenience.

If all the prices are listed on the TMS site are below MSRP why would anyone need to email you, the manufacturer, just to get MSRP? Where is the value added service for your dealers when you're "saving" them money by drop shipping but, your having their customers email you directly for the "best price"?Doesn't seem to make sense that you are drop shipping everything so they have no control over inventory but you also sell directly to their customers at "best pricing" even though you claim that you, being the manufacturer, will only sell at MSRP while your dealers can sell below MSRP? Which is it, are you selling at MSRP as the manufacturer and pointing potential customers towards your dealers who sell for less than MSRP or are you providing "best pricing" to the customers directly thereby undercutting your dealers who you were helping out by drop shipping?

It only doesnt make sense because youve made an incorrect assumption. See above statement.

Can people PM you without joining your forum? I find it odd that you don't have the time to clean out your PM box on AO but, you've got plenty of time to make sure your PBL box is clear. Is that because there is hardly any traffic over there, is that why you feel the need to try and get people to sign up to PM you?

They can e-mail me without joining pblegion.com . There is a reason why I give 2 contact options.

Why do people care again? It's his business he can run it however the **** he wants to run it, that's the beauty of America and our capitalist society.

If you don't like it don't buy from him, someone else who doesen't care will buy from him instead.

That's exactly what I've been saying for some years now.

As far as Rogue is concerned, like him or not. How he chooses to describe his affiliations with any of his dealer network, stores whatever....his products speak for themselves. Top notch stuff, and worth getting wherever you can.
I have found my best relationship with him is to not have one but my Mag, which I am very proud of and happy with, is outfitted with a majority of his parts. I would recommend them and him to anyone on a professional level. There are and have been many dealers who do not offer such good product in such a timely manner and at such a finished quality.

Hey, you can come back from under your rock in five days. Note to all, this is an unacceptable post for AO and will get you a Ban. Filter circumvention, flaming and disruptive.

They are to busy policing the BST forums for punctuation and grammar as well as making sure all the capitol letters are not over used...

You should have had your issues settled with the Mod that PMd you. Guess that didnt work for you, so see you in three days.
