I personally would rather pay more for my mods if I get the later two. Luckily for me, I've manged to find a few vendors that have done all three

You can't put a price on great customer service

Just pm them all saying each one has a better price. They'll undercut the other until they make nothing on the parts. Works for most

We build on a strong relationship with our customers and vendors. We believe in sincerity and always from initial contact to when you receive the product we make sure that you satisfied. We ship same day, contact you when it has shipped with tracking numbers, contact you if there is any issues with the shipment and also make sure you received the product.

We provide competitive pricing and structure to meet any budget.
