If Leatherseat.com wants a piece of our tax rebates from Uncle Sam, I hope that we can strike a deal quickly before that check is gone.

Mrs. Le is looking to spend that check at Albertson, which offers additional discount for those rebate checks. With prices of milk and eggs gone up, it will be harder to justify to the wife and kids why daddy's old ES should be pimped.

Leatherseat.com, no pressure here. No pressure applied here. No pressure at all. Current economy can only goes up, right?

I'm just trying to fulfill my part in stimulating the economy with the rebate check by visiting our sponsoring vendor here.

That doesn't seem like a very big discount for 12000 dollars in business.

Is CL skimming off the top?

lej1447: I will add you to the list! Just because you are on the list does not mean you are obligated to purchase, it just means that you will buy if we reach the maximum discount.

VM 2: The reason that we don't run long group buys is because we have to make all of the interiors, and to help us save money we have to order all of the materials in bulk. If we ran the group buy for 3 months the people that joined in the begining would have to wait that entire time to get their leather.

smerre01: The grain of our leather is quite a bit different from OEM. Other then that our interior will match the OEM. I can send you a sample if you like, just PM me your mailing address. The prices listed are for the front and back seats. If you just want the front seats they are $80 less then the group buy price for the RX.

Lexucan: You are correct. There are several reasons why we price them this way. A) It is easier for our production to build complete interiors then it is for a partial. B) We get a bigger discount on materials because we are buying more. C) We have less issues with customers wanting to purchase the back seat at a later date, which is $499.00 by itself.

lej1447: We are extending the group buy for at least another week, possibly two if we do not get 20 people.

TecnoSmurf: We are not allowed to comment on what CL chages us to advertise here, but believe me when I say that we are not making a lot of money on these group buys!

Default Next year?

I will need to defer until next year for my SC, hopefully there'll be another group buy then. Thanks for offering the group discount!

When you say the grain on your leather is quite a bit different than the oem grain could you clarify a little bit? I'm just trying to get an idea of the difference, thanks!

deejay: No, we cannot do gathered inserts on the 2nd gen GS.

DiRocco: No problem. We try to run two group buys a year, so I'm sure there will be one when you are ready.

macd7919: Our grain is very similar to BMW leather. It has a "milled pebble" finish. If you like, PM me your mailing address and I will send some samples out.

Thanks for adding my name. I don't mind the wait as long as we get the 20-folk GB discount.

The last GB discount was a year, circa Apr 2007. That thread had 13 pages. From page 9 and up, those late comers were asking about another GB. I wonder where all those folks are.

Here is the thread at page 10 and keep scrolling down until you see pix. Something to inspire the rest to kick up one notch.

Leatherseat.com, is every Lexus model forum informed? I would hate to see more late comers missing the boat for one more year.

As for me, if I get the steep discount, I'm in. If not, I'll just pay the CC down to make the wife happy.

eyezack87: We will probably run one again in late fall/early winter.

lej1447: No problem. It happens after every group buy, but eventually they get in on one.

Default Hey

Just wanted to mention that I ordered a kit from europe, forgot to input the CL discount code but still got a reduction in the form of a paypal reimbursement after mentioning this.
Great service and nice to deal with these guys.
