Rell Posted June 1, 2013 Report Share Posted June 1, 2013 Has anyone actually seen RE Audio or Kinetic in wal mart? or are they just online? A lot of these companies are starting to put anything product available to them online, but not actually stocking the product. When an order is placed it would likely be direct shipped straight out of a warehouse. They have been basically doing what Amazon does with allowing third-party sellers. I've been looking at very expensive tools and when I goolge them to research sometimes I get taken to links with walmart selling them. Ive been linked to Snap-on tools on walmart . Sears has been doing this too. Unless its a really low quality equipment I don't see this stuff actually showing up in stores..But time will tell I guess.

hankfan79 Posted June 1, 2013 Report Share Posted June 1, 2013 Not sure if yall know this buy a lot of things that are sold at Walmart are made differently than other places. For instance, their guns are made a tad bit different than something you find at a gun store. They also have unique serial numbers for walmart specifically. WM is often on the serial number. Walmart negotiates a deal with suppliers to make their products with cheaper parts and they agree to buy so many units. I'm not saying that is the case with RE and Kinetik but it very well could be. Just some facts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SLAYER1805 Posted June 1, 2013 Report Share Posted June 1, 2013 All the noobs on the FB classifieds say that now since they're sold at Walmart they're shit now. That's like saying the JVC or Pioneer headunit you find at Walmart is less quality than the same one you find on Sonic Electronix or Crutchfield Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alaskanzx5 Posted June 1, 2013 Report Share Posted June 1, 2013 i personally would rather shop at a Fred Meyer, fast check out and very comparable prices. ive saved more money on groceries at Fred Meyers then Wall mart or Safeway. kinetic in Wall mart is good if you ask me. people will see it and actually try to upgrade their electrical. it will get more people into the industry. re ive never heard or dealt with so i cant say. lets not forget that kinetic isn't a bad brand, plus the free site to store shipping is a money saver. save a good 50+ on battery upgrades per batt in just shipping. could save enough on shipping to get some nice battery terminals made or more 1/0gauge, sound deadener, or even wood for more box building and testing. could even spend that extra money on smd products. t1500bdcp 2 t2d4 15" 1 t600.4 1 t400.2 1 set p1 tweets singer alt, tons of wiring, smd vm-1, 80prs, back seat delete, still in the works, aiming for a 145-147 with the ability to play 25hz up to 50hz.

Just some facts. I'd like some proof of this.. I can't prove it with either of the two companies mentioned. Like I said, this may not be the case. With guns..it IN FACT is true. The Remington 870 Express shotgun is built with different wood on the forearm for Walmart. Beretta also has a shotgun model that is built different for Walmart. Google it and read. It is nothing new for a huge retailer to suggest changes in manufacturing to keep their business. Target also has done this on certain items.
