alaskanzx5 Posted August 17, 2012 Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 when buying it from xs power and shipping from there to hear there is only one shipping fee and the batteries are only paid for once. yes a shop will pay the shipping and dont realy charge for the shipping from all the shops i have seen. shops will also be able to ship large amounts of the batteries at a cheaper price by far. then the shop will pay ( and im just guessing here ) 40-60% less per battery then the average consumer would. meaning if they paid 250 for a battery and paid 200 to ship it and sold it for 600 thats still profit but the shop wont pay 200 in shipping a single battery they will buy 5-10 of several different sizes of battery then have it shipped up by freight and get a great price to ship 5-10 times the amount of batteries. shipping a car from alaska to washington avarages about 750-1000 if i remember right but to buy a conex and load it with 2-3 cars will cost 1500-2000 to ship meaning that 3rd car is free shipping or better yet the 3rd car is free and the 2nd car is half priced. shops can make bigger orders and get the product at a much cheaper price and ship for less then the consumer so even selling at msrp is profit. the amount of profit per may not be a whole lot but not all shops go for big profit off of 1 or 2 purchases but instead go for large profit off of 8-9 purchases. a local shop here has to sell x amount of rockfod subs in order to get them at the price they do and so in turn they do a buy 1 get 1 free sale once a year where they make their money.

rick1987 Posted June 8, 2014 Report Share Posted June 8, 2014 I like your explanation on how It could be beneficial to you. I also like the post about not paying for return shipping If the product was def. I don't have to agree with you. I didn't press the agree button. Not trying to be a smart SSA just making a point. Some how some one Is paying for shipping Its not free. This product moves through more then one person before It gets to you or the shop. Every hand that this item passes through they want to get paid. Not tryIng to be argumentative I am just tryIng to understand how It benefits the customer. Every one Is caught up thinking I am tryIng to bash the Idea or product and thIs Is not the case. I am only tryIng to understand how It Is beneficial to the customer and not the motivators. Im just guessing here, but... The XS power stocking dealer is going to get the Batteries cheaper than Joe the ragman off the street, Hence the "$1500 buy in". And im guessing XS power is not going to ship the Batteries UPS/FEDEX as they would to us, they are probably going to use a Fright company. So cheaper batteries, cheaper shipping, will allow the dealer to compete with online prices and still make a profit. Ive run Large group buys in the past. When you get a group together spending $15k+ it lets you get Distributor Pricing and you get cheaper shipping when its on a pallet on a 18 wheeler.
