PSA: Winjets for $135
Credit to this find goes to @Msnicoleeeee (reposting from our NorCal thread)
I've seen pricing mistakes happen from all sorts of large businesses, and due to forums and PSA's been able to snag a few never-discounted things at great prices Looks like CarID priced their Winjets for the FR-S @ a low $135: http://www.carid.com/2013-scion-fr-s...-17419755.html Their BBB rating is solid too: http://www.bbb.org/new-jersey/busine...239/#sealclick Too bad I don't have an FR-S anymore, or I'd order this right away... Edit: I am not responsible for your transaction, read the thread. My advice is to stick with PayPal - in any case, this is a good deal if it's really a mistake!

If anyone is wondering, only $200 USD shipped to Canada If they honor the price anyway.

I've bought 3 pairs of the same brand of never-discounted shoes from J.Crew (Aldens) and got them all 30-50+% off, they have always honored it or helped me out somewhere else for the mistake. Edit: doesn't hurt to try, they're a big established dealer it seems.

That's funny you mention they have a good BBB rating yet I've seen nothing but horrible reviews of carid. lol.
I'd have to want a set of winjets pretty bad to even risk it, even at that price. I hope everyone who has ordered a set recently through them ends up with their product at the price they have them listed for. |

I've always found BBB ratings to be pretty reliable, but I suppose proceed with caution with any dealer you're not familiar with. I have no experience with them directly, just based on the BBB search I did.

I think if I were buying a set for myself, I'd do PayPal as well. They've always had my back if anything weird happened.

BBB is a scam. Companies pay them (or they extort companies, like Yelp) to hide bad reviews or highlight good ones.

They also have 99% on eBay. I think you'll be fine.
