LOL I think you guys missed the question..

No, I have never seen a rebuild kit go "on sale" as in for a cheaper price... they get the parts for a certain amount, and they sell it for a certain amount... there is no overstock, in fact they tend to run out occasionally...

So don't be waiting up for them to go on sale during christmas lol

with my dealer discount it is like a parts sale for factory parts, however they are still a bit pricey, i didn't pay any less than you would at one of the online stores but i did have all my parts in a timely manner, in fact i could have a complete seal kit in a few hours.

i haven't seen any sale priced kits online so my answer would have to be 'no'.

Go to 446 Rheystone Ave.

Knock twice on the door, stomp your foot once.

Go around to the back alley, stomp again, ONCE on the sewer cover.

Pick up the chalk on the back porch and write "RAY" on the window backwards.

Go back to the front, if no one answers the door... you never saw this message.
