Down Boycott Dynomite Diesel Price gouging customers

Lenny Reed, Owner of Dynomite Diesel is TAKING advantage of the Bosch National Shortage of Dodge CR injectors by adding $500 to a set of 6 Just because they are in shorter than usual supply.

Sounds like a good time to screw your customers who have stayed with them through thick and thin times.

Some quotes were given early on the 24th, stated one price, later under direction of the owner that quote was hiked up $500. He said, cause they are harder to get people are willing to pay us more. So pay up (my retirement) or tough luck.

It should be suggested that truck owners patronize vendors that don't RAPE their customers. (without a kiss)...

true but its not right to hike the price up like that unless your price on them has gone up! if you already have them sell them for what you have into them not $500 more because they are getting harder to find!

Wow! Thats Deep Dude! Worked on that one all day huh!

Yup, trucks ain't cheap....And they cost more if you deal with people who are opportunist and screw customers just because they can... Try...

Those inj. didn't cost them more, they just figure... Like when a hurricane hits a city, and Home Depot starts charging $50 for a sheet of plywood or the store charges $10 a gallon for gas. Just because they are unscrupulous, thieves.

have you tried a differnt vendor. Dynomite isnt the only one who sells CR injectors. what about forum classifieds. you can get great deals on some slightly used parts

I wasnt defending Dynomite Diesel. Lose the attitude or this will go away.

Its the principal of it. Besides I don't want used ones. I can get them elsewhere. I only want 6 new ones.

Guess I could deal with II. instead.

I believe it's called "supply and demand" Just sayin.

I do not condone it one bit but have taken economics classes in college.
