E-Series Owners Club 10% Discount at Autobarn Frankston?

Postby SnyperEB » February 11th, 2009, 11:55 am

E-Series Owners Club 10% Discount at Autobarn Frankston? Went to Autobarn Frankston today and the bloke noticed my EBGLT hat that I had on and asked if I was apart of the club obviously I said yes and he said im entitled to a 10% discount. So was the bloke just being nice or is this a general thing that happens to everyone when your apart of the club?

I think Bomber or Alesia might have something to do with it?

Should find out more about the Autobarn thing, maybe get other stores involved and set them up as a sponsor? Might get free/cheap stuff for advertising them on here, at shows etc?

If they are sponsors when we cant talk badly about them. Bias is what killed AFF. Unbiased forums ftw.

Its the difference between a car enthusiast getting what they need compared to what a sponsor wants them to have.

Currently we don't need financial backing.
We allow people like CVE/Snort to keep us upto date with their developments.
if we suddenly start accepting sponsors then we need to be stricter on allowing others to push their products.

i don't want to be stopping people from voicing their experiences/opinions on relevant workshops/products simply because one of their compeditors is paying us to advertise them.

If you ever need financial backing, I will pay a substantial sum for the naming rights to every user.

What about just trying to organise club discounts with whole range of stores, not so they sponser us, but so they get more customers, from a club who will spead the good word???
