I'll take that into consideration. I'll be sure to let the big timer's see this post so they can have the feedback of the customers. Thanks for the input guys.

I stopped by yesterday to check it out and someone leaving the store told me it was closed and to come back tomorrow (today) when it re-opens under new management. My friends and I were standing outside and we ended up having to explain to everyone that drove into the parking lot that the store is temporarily closed and would re-open.

I came back today thinking Amsoil would be restocked, but it was still pretty bare. Most of the store is still pretty empty, so hopefully you guys will be restocked soon. I saw a few SC's and IS parked outside though.

Yes.. I know our prices are up there. We're working on finding new vendors to get better prices so we can lower prices for you guys. We're also working on an internet site to be more competitive also. Hopefully it will all go through. please just hang in there with us.

Yeah, we haven't re-ordered anything just yet. All the merchandise you see is actually all the unsold product from the Covina location. We DID put in an order for 5w-30 oil in all the brands, Amsoil, Enos, Royal Purple, Torco, and redline...etc. That was a must and should some in soon. slowly but surely when all the loose ends are tied up we should be back on track. thanks for helping us out yesterday saying we were temporarily closed. come by again and say hi.

As for the internet sale's. Its an option that was brought to the table and seems like it will happen. It might take a little bit of time but we have a commited team for it if we decided to attack the internet. you better believe i'll be hittin you guys up for some sales tho. haha

Guys we've allowed this thread to stay open in borderline conflict with our forum advertising and solicitation rules.

While I don't live out there, I know this store is very unique and important to the local auto enthusiast community and want this thread to stay open. So let's watch the sales chatter please .

Jimmy, maybe you can even get them to sponsor the forum so you can be an authorized vendor on CL and let folks know about sales, events, etc PM me once you get up and running again and I'll put you in touch with the right people.
