wtb CLK 430 front bumper

preferably already black. but if the price is good unpainted or one that doesnt match would work.

I could use 1 also. If someone does step up and buy please post the results so that the rest of us can make an informed decision.

That link is from a distributor of ours. So you know, we offer special pricing to MBWorld members. Let me know what precisely you were interested in and I can work up a quote for you.

I'm sorry you think that the discount I gave wasn't enough. I gave you the same price I would have given anyone else that inqired about that part. If you would prefer, I can post the price for the AMG front that this particular member posted about so everyone can see what kind of pricing they would get.

W208 AMG style front bumper:

MSRP $299 plus shipping
MBworld member price: $215.28 plus shipping

Again, I'm sorry that you feel that you can get a better deal from ebay but I ask this: would you rather purchase directly from the manufacturer and deal with them directly if an issue arose or would you prefer to purchase from a third party and have to go through a middleman to resolve an issue?

thats not special mbworld pricing dude, that is the same price they give for your product on ebay or at the store or anywhere else, so where is the special members discount, i'm not talking smack about the price of the bumper because its a good price i'm talking smack about you making people think you are taking care of them when that is the price you would give any dude off the street.

As you can see, the retail price is $299 and that would be the price for someone walking in off the street. If that person wants to purchase the part from one of our wholesalers, that is perfectly fine. Approximately 95% of our entire business is done via wholesale accounts so while you may purchase that part from a store on eBay, it comes from us. I could sit here and explain the ins and outs of MAP pricing but I am not going to clutter up the OPs thread. If you have questions about how we price certain things, feel free to send me a PM, an email, an IM or you can even call and talk to one of our wholesale account reps as they are better versed in it than I.

i'm dont arguing here is proof for everyone to see, they accept 200 best offer how do i know, cause i ordered one a day after you pmd me about the supposed discount. you are giving the same price you are giving everyone else, that means NO SPECIAL MBWORLD DISCOUNT, just tell the truth and dont do false advertising that's all i'm saying.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/98-02...Q5fAccessories

and you said 219 for special discount for members here is your exact same front bumper that is made by you for 230, 11 dollar special ahha that is funny

That first link isn't even my part. That is a competitors part. It would be hard for me to get you a price on a part that isn't manufactured by the company. As for the second link, that part is $239.40 plus $140 for shipping. That makes for a shipped price of $379.20. The price on the part I gave you was $215.28 and shipping was $118 to your door. That makes for a shipped price of $333.28.

$333.28<$379.20

I'm not sure where you think you weren't getting a discount but as you can plainly see, there is.
