I would like it if only those who have a stake in this situation would post in this thread from now on.
Thanks for your cooperation.
cpu77 said:Guys,
This is a bussiness just like any other. If someone copies something only hope they make it better or cheaper. After all this is capitalism and no one plays fair. Besides if everyone really cared about principals copy cats could not sell there product (cause someone is buying it!). Moral of the story in life go big or go home. Alot of the problems with the quote orignal creators is there marketing stinks compared to the so called copy cats. RPM Outlets service is not the best however they do a much better job marketing to the general public then the guy selling his wares on a couple of forums.
Thanks

I suppose that we're one of those who's marketing stinks. To tell you the truth, I agree with you. The reason our marketing sucks compared to places like RPM is that we spend most of our available funds and time developing, testing, and mfg. novel products to solve necessary problems in this niche market. If all we did was copy other folks hard work, we could dump a crapload more time and money into marketing the knock-offs......just like RPM, "Steala", "Unauthorized Product Ripoffs", etc.. If there were no folks who actually cared about the stuff we do (Zone-5, Billetflow, Pfab, etc.) y'all would have many less mods available for purchase.
To those of you who share your loyalty with us, thank you. To the rest of you who don't see the value in this, "reap what you sew".
