Default how do they do it?

J&P cycles had the rush slippons I wanted priced at 329.95...called up and found out the price had been increased to 399.95 plus tax and shipping ( must of been looking at one of the older catalogs of the 7 I've gotten in the past 5 months)... I said no thanks, called eastern performance and got the same pipes for $309.00 no tax, no shipping...just got the pipes and they look great....don't know how they can do it but I'm happy as a pig in ****....can't hardly wait to replace the POS stock mufflers with these chrome cannons...gonna be great!

good going on shopping around. Thats the beauty of the internet. I just purchased rush slip-ons from a member who was giving them away for a great deal and cannot wait, as well as you to install them on the scoot. Oh and keep the smiling to a minimum when riding, you don;t want to give up the bad a$$ biker image, do you?

I like to look at the catalogs like the Fat Book, J&P, Custom Chrome, HD, etc . . . then I buy it at an Ebay store for at least 20% off. Ebay rocks! and so does Eastern.

There's really NO REAL DEALS from J&P. Even at Sturges they sell it by the book... They have a great Catalog to find what ya want then go shop the internet and you can ALWAYS beat there prices!!!
