How did the price of the Beluga Axle back double??

All,

I was browsing eBay and noticed that the Beluga exhaust more than doubled in price. I purchased mine 5-6 months ago for less than $300. What happened?

I just was at my infiniti dealer and they were selling these damn things for $550 + install. I was shocked to see them in the display case

They saw their product selling well and figured let's spike the price. I understand in a business sense a price increase but an increase of 400% FOR THESE is excessive. Don't get me wrong they're nice but it's not even a catback it's an axleback. They're all a bunch of crooks. That's the 4th time they've raised they're price in a matter of 3months and the fact it's set to the price of a full hks hi power or ark full catback exhaust is absolutely ridiculous!

Not to worry. In a free economy, they'll soon realize that their product is not worth as much as a full CBE. Unless if you have brand loyalty comparable to that of Apple, you really can't overcharge for an average product.

I believe they are out of stock so they listed the price higher because they don't want to remove the post. I highly doubt that they are selling them for that much they must just be out of stock at the moment because they been really popular once they build more they will put original price again.

Yeah, they do this when they are out of stock typically.

Here's a Manzo for $3k, lol. That must mean it's better than Meisterschaft!

Typical eBay lingo, up the rate to craziness so no one buys, then change it when they are available. Very normal.

no, it was listed high when i bought one last year - i guess maybe they think they'll grab a few suckers?

just hit the [Make an Offer] button - try $250
