This is just an accumalation of my thoughts from the past few weeks. If someone takes it personally I do apologize.
Ive been doing alot of quotes for batteries and making shopping list breaking down what you need and informing you of the costs that you are paying and what you are paying me for people have been running away... turning ghost. Either they are in shock and awe of the price or they got the info they needed and moved on. Basically I did all the hard work and you are going to try to do things yourselves. One thing about ebikes.... when you cut corners you spend more money fixing you frock ups. If you dont have the money to do it right the first time make sure you have the money to do it over again later. I think some of you are going to bite off more than you can chew. Or some people have unrealistic price points and expectations. I even give some of you quotes from other reliable vendors and what I would make for you is way more capeable for 100 or more dollars less. I could get it even lower if HK wasnt so retarded with shipping cost. Packs may cost X AMOUNT OF DOLLARS. If its not in stock in the USA you have to order fromt he International Warehouse. Guess what there are limits to how much you can ship so sometimes you have to split your order up 2-3 times at roughly 100 dollars a pop for each order. So yeah you may see kick ass prices at HK but are you factoring in our shipping. Also stuff in the USA warehouse has been price adjusted to compensate them importing it. Its alot better than it has ben but there are still even elevated cost in the US but shipping is much cheaper. Roughly 60-70 bucks cheaper. We can even ship more in one pacage vs having to split the order so when I quote you something and its stuff I have to buy on your behalf Im not fluffing any price or making any money. Im giving the same cost that you would have to pay if you were ordering ish yourself. Im give quotes on whats avaliable at the USA warehouse. If you dont mind waiting for stuff to come off back order and can wait we can talk about making things cheaper. If you have no standards for what you buy The we can talk about cutting corners and saving money. Im selling complete solutions that work. If you want me to sell something that just works a little.. and blow up on your ass or leaves you stranded somewhere then we can do that to.. Just dont whine about it and cry on the forum cause to many of us are GD tired of trying to help you clean your asses after your frock ups. I accept my frock ups and move on. Some people lack the common sense to read and make educated decision and have realistic expectations and forcibly try to make ish work. The information has been here the whole time guys. Not only has it be repeated to death but it gets richer/better each round. I originally started doing this for a extra money when I got hurt. Things have matured to something greater Ive learned alot. Im making things better and continuously improving. But Ive also create like a new ebike generation that just stopped trying. Everything is on a platter and you being fed with a silver spoon that youve had in your mouth since birth. No research into ebikes. Just jumped in head first into what you thought was a pool but what you really saw was some awesome sidewalk art.No we have to help you up and bad decisions into a positive one. Also some people still have the misconception that they can get a kickass battery like I sold on the forum a week or so ago for 550 bucks completed. That pack was sold at a loss. One thing i learned. Time and effort you put into things... has no value along with depreciation. As much as i try to get the most out of selling things on here the most you are going to get is 80% of the at cost value and shipping if its in pristine condition. I got the at cost price of the pack f.. the shipping i paid. f the work put into the pack. Sorry boo hoo but there are some cost that cant be recouped. So when you miss a deal kick yourself in the a... but know you are coming out much better than the person selling it. A little piece of me died selling the pack. Im glad its gone to an owner than I feel will get good use and respect my work bu Try buying a completely assembled pack of the same size you are paying way more nearly double or more and got less. If you were to have bought a 72v 20AH ping you would have spend well over a grand for the pack. It would be heavy as frock like 32+ pound lbs.You would have been limited to 40-60A discharge. A slow ass charger. Not to mention the custom solution trying to protect it some how. It would be big and bulky. My packs were hard case pack that wer 23$ a piece.. best fcking deal ever. I save nearly 2-300 dollars vs using 6s turnigy or zippy packs. Get your mind right guys. But yet i quote something not exactly the best deal ever but a better deal than the premade solutions that is cheaper and better in nearly all aspects... And for me to charge minimum wage for the hour or two to cycle through you precious packs to make sure you get what you paid for and its in peak prime condition. How dare I try to go the extra mile. Thats where people are gonna cut cost when they try to do it themselves. They are going to buy packs not cycle them .. throw some shit together .. have a bad cell in the pack and guess what they are gonna cry that something is wrong with their battery... they dont have the proper instruments to revive or salvage the cell and then you get some veterans the say I told you so.. Im sitting with my arms folded reading some of this mess SMDH and to think that its absured for me to wanna charge labor to sift and cycle through your packs so I can have peace of mind about you getting a WORKING product....(sic) you literally no limits on discharge.. Atleast no limit that you will hit with an ebike So I know for a fact that my price scale isnt off. Im flexible on my quotes guys. I even let you know what are hard costs and what you can save money on. I do to much to get the silent middle finger. Atleast let me know if my quote is to high or give me the courtesy thank you for your time Im going to pass. I think im just going to throw just a number out there take it or leave it ... some of you arent even entertaing my options to find cheaper alternatives ... thats it for now. Its a rant but please respond if you think im out of line for thinking this way.
