Hi Guys,

I will be updating the Opti Guard group buy pricing and offering additional value to help our customers get the best possible deal arising from the price increase tonight.

I apologise for the confusion this may have caused!

Watch this space!

First thank you for your interest in our product. It is great to see so many members coating their 86's. This is a car that I am also looking at purchasing for myself! The queue is crazy though.

I want to answer some of the questions directly that are going to be asked regarding the product pricing.

Yes, it is correct that we have set a minimum pricing of $495 inc. GST for the paint application only. It has always been our policy to set a minimum standard of application and pricing and we have been slowly implementing these changes. Up until now we had not been aware that the product price had dropped below this level and had no acted on it.

Minimum pricing is set for various reasons, one including ensuring the standard of preparation and application is to a high standard. As price decreases, profit margins also decrease. You will see in many industries, this then has an effect on the end product.

Although all our Opti-Coat dealers at this point in time do an excellent job, minimum pricing is set at a point that guarantees we won't have the same issues I previously mentioned. Frank from Bright Shine can have no issue doing the job at the group buy pricing, but the knock on effect is the next person does it cheaper, and then cheaper again and so on. We then have poor quality workmanship creeping in and a whole bunch of 86 owners unhappy with our product.

Our Opti-Coat dealers do not dictate the terms to us, and that is not the case here. The reason for the set pricing is for the above reasons and no others.

All members who have previously committed to Bright Shine's offer will be entitled to this pricing.

Dealers are entitled to include additional items at their discretion such as applying left over product to wheels and/or other surfaces however this is something we will also monitor over time to ensure the correct amount of coating is applied to the painted surfaces.

If anyone has any questions they want to ask us directly feel free to email me at joel@zas.com.au

Or...
You could simply acknowledge that this group buy is beneficial for all parties involved and just go along with it. :thumbdown:
Pretty clear from the testimonies so far that Frank is not going to damage the good name of your product. If others are doing so, then maybe you should be going after them instead.

Good Evening All,

Group buy thread has been updated on page one.

We are proud to have Opti Guarded more 86s than any other detailer in the country. Experience and knowledge of your vehicle is crucial to an excellent job.
