RX-7 Store Lightweight flywheel group-buy!
Just so you know, since group buys are not allowed anymore for competetive reasons, Jason at the RX-7 store gave me an amazing deal on my 9.5# flywheel. I'm sure if you got enough people together he would be able to offer them at a lower price for you. He didn't tell me what brand it was, and I couldn't tell really when it got here, but I believe it's the Racing Beat 9.5#.

Here's mine. I just weighed it on my digital scale, and it was 4.284Kg, which is almost exactly 9.5 lbs; actually it's just slightly under that.

I see. Well, it is The RX-7 Store's forum basically, so if this will help business I can understand why he's not allowing group buys anymore. Has anyone talked to Jason about this yet?

I don't have anything against Jason and wish him luck but its kinda foul to ban competition talk. The forum is great and all but if its part of the RX-7 store why is he asking for donations? People don't ask for donations to support their business do they?? Now if he wants to sell shares where investors can get a cut of the action then I'm down with that.

don't worry guys, i'll create another RX-7 forum that doesn't link to any store so there will be no competiton. the only thing is, i'll charge you $0.50 cents per post (j/k). But I agree with Ted and Wankelhead, the store should be seperated from the forum!!!

Do companies PAY FOR their competitors advertising? Hardly...

The donations made were to support the FORUM, not the RX-7 Store. Just because the RX-7 Store is the primary sponsor doesn't mean it is the only sponsor- I'm sure we have all seen banner ads from time to time- they pay for every click. That is ONE kind of advertising/sponsorship that is available.
To put it another way: Why should the RX-7 Store have to pay for advertising, and everyone else get it free? Sorry, that isn't the way it works. If a vendor wants equal advertising space, they can spend an equal amount of money, and time and effort supporting the site, etc.
