IMO every time that a vendor goes retail, AG drops the line. Think Surf City.

Speaking of Surf City (cheesy name, would never buy they're stuff just based off of that!) my buddy told me the Carquests in Michigan replaced their DG products with Surf City, you've gotta be kidding me, right! I look at it like this, their loss and the salesman for that Surf City my be a relative of PT Barnum, LOL. Although I've never used Surf City products I also know of noone who has either, not even here on AG but I'm sure they exsist, I'm VERY sure they don't even come close to DG, no way, no how, NO I I !

Just my 2 cents, but GG plush Blue Micro Fiber Towels is all I use to wipe off polish, quick detail, clean bird droppings (could have sand in them), clay, clean windows etc. GG has some very good products including their 6 " and 3" DA Polisher. I hope that AG does not drop GG products as I often load up of Megs and GG products to make the free shipping amount. If GG is still in business I will continue to buy their products, direct if necessary. One of the reason I buy from AG is that they carry quality products and I feel GG is a quality brand.
 
A furniture store here in my town has a bankruptcy/going out of business sale twice a year to drum up sales. I think this is pub grab IMO

Seems like every town has a store like that. One place I lived had a rug store like that. They finally stopped having those sales when the store burned down...
 
A furniture store by me had sales like that every year up until last year....

When they went out if business! Lol

A closeout sale can also mean that the product line is being updated and hence the need to clear older products.
Just like most biking stores have them like RevZilla and cyclegear etc. Hopefully Griotts isnt going out of business. They have some good products.

I doubt that every product that AG sells by Griot is being updated. I also doubt that Griot is going out of business. AG is probably dropping the line cause Griot is going OTH.
 
There are stores in NYC that have been "Going Out of Business" for 30 years. I agree with the below statement.

Convenience is the key, you can go on Amazon and get Griot's products shipped to you in two days with Prime. I love the Geek, but it is agony waiting a almost week for your order to arrive. It's hard to compete on GG when they are going so mainstream.

With Prime you pay for the privledge of quick shipping, and even though AG doesn't have a Prime like service you can pay extra for quick shipping, it's not like Amazon sends stuff 2 day shipping free, you pay for Prime.

I love Amazon Prime though, came in so clutch while we remodeled rooms in our home, things get to you next day, Prime is worth the price!

AG should do something like this, pay $100./year get a dedicated discount off and 2-3 day shipping, would be fun, I know I'd sign up....

AG shipping is faster for me in Virginia. Not to mention their customer service is second to none!

What?!?! I'll have to go check this out. I have some Surf City product, and it's ok. Nowhere near the performance of dg - not even close. I used their Barrier Reef Wax on Friday, and it seems ok. Any dg sealant out performs their Nano Seal though.

I tend to agree, or at an absolute minimum, charge us based on ACTUAL shipping weight. Truthfully, I haven't been purchasing from AG much partially because of this. I found another company that charges a yearly membership fee, gives prices 20-40% off MSRP pricing, reasonable shipping charges, the works. I've probably saved over $1500 over the past few months.

Back onto this topic... Has it really taken 8 pages and we still haven't gotten an answer as to why this Griots line is being dropped? Seriously AG???
