Autogeek sales?

Not open for further replies.
I just went a did a quick scan of some of my favorite brands, and the selections have shrunk.

I can only assume they won't be restocked.

I hate reading too far into things, but that can't be a good sign.

I haven't felt good about this site since Bob sold it. Since Mike left it feels the site is lost at sea.

I'm excited to see where he is now, and I think he'll be able to get something going there with Bob.

An "AGO 2.0" of sorts.

I've always toggled between here and DI.

I get emails from Autogeek regularly. Sometimes it's for stuff I'm not really needing or interested in. And a lot of the items sold need to be trimmed as there is too much overlap. A store selling 15 different AIO's isn't using warehouse space efficiently. Under the current economic situation, it's probably a smart move.

It’s apparent to me no one from AG reads this forum or reads it and just doesn’t care. Either way, what a shame a once terrific site is becoming

There was a time when a moderator would probably have deleted your post for even mentioning DI. I agree, though......they are getting my business unless the people who are currently running AG wake up a little. We're not even seeing those 25pct off 'flash' sales anymore. I guess they are afraid that everyone will dump their points and/or gift certificates as soon as they have one? Seems to me, the choice is simple....return AGO back to a decent place to do business, or go belly-up and end up liquidating your assets for pennies on the dollar. Oh, and btw, good luck getting someone to buy up all of your house brands.

Yea I've known that for a few months now, and is why I stopped encrypting anything I say!
But now a days unless you absolutely have to buy something, 25% off is the new norm for price! Just need to shop around or just be patient. And when I say patient I mean 1-3 weeks max.
 
Tried calling them three times yesterday due to issues with a gift certificate. Never got hold of anyone & was never called back.....
 
They’re not open on Saturday.

Thanks to whoever referenced ‘Detailed Image’ earlier… I never knew about that store. They’ve got everything I’ve been looking for and it’s all in stock.

I’ll be shopping there now.

They Rock. Right now 25% off for a couple more days I believe. And yes they have all of the above! No one but Sky's The Limit had Reload 2.0 when it 1st hit for obvious reasons. And they got it in 2 weeks later. They have sales sucking me in constantly!

Way back in 2014 I had ordered some pads from DI and they contacted me because they hadn't shown up to my house yet!

They told me they were sending then again and that if the others show up, to simply send them back with the included bad and label.

I said no way, I'll just purchase the extra pads. I've never had better customer service. AG pre Vision was on par with that.
 
Actually tried to take advantage of the current 'sale' on Cobra MF products.....when I got to checkout, it told me the discount code was invalid. I'm guessing that, based on the code, it was valid only last Friday, even though it's still up there today?

The cool think about Sky's The Limit is you can buy sample sizes of must about every CarPro product. The 10mm coating sample bottles are perfect for a set of wheels and the 4oz bottles of Reset and other soaps are great when you just want to do a stronger spring cleaning and then go back to a milder soap the rest of the year. Oh...and their nice when you just want to try something out without committing to a larger bottle.

And since they didn’t learn about the first two, the third plummets. Maybe they should rename themselves to tax deduction firms.

There are success stories and flops abound. The playbook is typically the same. The need to 'get religion and modify the playbook' has a learning curve. What private equity tends to do is buy more companies in the same industry (or similar) and grow. Rarely is private equity in a grey area... they are either a savior or a devil, and at times they adjust industry significantly. History will tell whether or not they were good or bad, but by then most have exited via a sale of some kind.
 
So...I took advantage of todays 'sale'....picked up some Reset (20.99 for 1L bottle) and some microfiber mitts......and cashed in my points . Total came to 28.24 with shipping. Let's see how long it takes to ship to me
 
I placed an order last month. I live in Michigan and it arrived in four business days, quite fast

How long does it normally take to receive your order? I placed mine Monday and it hasn't even shipped yet.

I placed mine on Tuesday....had not shipped as of yesterday....until I reached out to customer service (Will)....and then it shipped

Expected delivery date is 3/27
 
Follow up....got the tracking notice in my email....and it shows the origin as Irving, TX? PBMG is still in Florida, isn't it?
 
That's really strange. Everything is supposed to come from FL
