KAAZ LSD, purchasers blues.

[radoublely]

This all started when I went to purchase my KAAZ  2 way LSD f or the open differential, at first their advertised price was like $805 (they've updated it but here's the link) http://intensepower.com/kasolisldils.html, which was the best deal online as far as I could tell, so I ordered the part.  I then received this e-mail from intensepoer.com-


This is in regards to order number 18277. Kaaz USA has raised the pricing on the diff since the last time we had placed an order for one. The new price for it is $989.95 plus the $32 for shipping. So the new total would be $1021.95. Below is a couple links to other web stores selling the same item for a lot more than we had initially advertised. I apologize for the inconvenience but if you wish to keep or change the order let me know.

Obviously "oliver" at Kaaz didn't spend a lot of time researching, because there were a few other places selling the part for less than what he advertised.  I asked if he could rush my order or hook me up in some way for the confusion, this is the e-mail I got back.

This is what I have to sell it at, there's not enough of a margin for us to compensate you. If you would like this order processed it would be for the full price of $1,021.95 shipped. I apologize for the inconvenience but my hands are tied.

So I asked him to process the order if he could get back to me...  Now, their website doesn't have any kind of notice that the shipping AND billing address needs to match a card, and he asked me to change the address on my card so he could process the order.  I responded this morning telling him I didn't want to do business with him anymore, and his website sucked.

Thought I'd share some more information for you guys interested in this part. 

Here's a link to a good deal on the KAAZ 2-way LSD-
http://www.frsport.com/Kaaz-SAN2655-2-Way-Limited-Slip-Differential--LSD--S13-S14-240SX-Open_p_1483.html

it's listed at 989.95, includes free ground and a single helping of KAAZ fluid.  More importantly, I haven't gotten 5 e-mails from them yet as to why they can't manage to update their site or hook you up when they don't get the price right.

I dont understand how people like this can stay in business. Sucks man. I ran into the same thing when I ordered my NRG wheel and hub not long ago. Ended up taking like 4 weeks to get it, and then they ended up requiring a 3 way call with me and my CC company to confirm the address...

I know right? And how many s12 owners know how simple it is to fit that differential into their cars? Probably most people who have actually read anything technical on these forums.  Just trying to let people know who NOT to buy from and who's got the best deal.
