Adam's shop vac Price

Just a heads up Guys. Adam's new shop vac model SHV9621310 is selling for $199.99 on their site. This is their "pre order" price.... this week only!

http://www.adamspolishes.com/p-645-a...y-cleaner.aspx

The same model sells for $174.99 on Amazon.

http://www.amazon.com/ShopVac-SHV962...1116602&sr=8-1

I tried to ask them if their kit came with anything special on their facebook page. They said "it comes with a free bottle of carpet cleaner".... They promptly deleted my posts.

I love Adam's products but if you keep treating people like they're stupid they will start looking at other products.

Willy's Garage
Griot's Garage
Jax Wax

Just to name a few...

I dunno man no one at Adams has ever given off the impression that their customers are "stupid". Their customer service and relations is the best ive ever seen. Oh and I dont think anyone who is used to the quality of adams would consider using any of the other "products" you listed. Just my 2cents...

some people think $25 is worth the 110% guarantee, the support you will get if you have an issue, the idea of supporting a small company that sells lots of other stuff they love, the pride of supporting a company that only sells made in the USA products and a company where the owner will give you his email address and take your calls.

i am not judging either decision. just offering a different perspective to consider.

i know where i would buy it if i was going to buy.

oh, and if the $25 is important, and i understand $25 is not chump change, then wait unitl there is a 15% coupon, that would make it only $187. for $12 bucks I definetly know where I would buy it from.

Did some people forget to look at the "Big Picture" again?

I'm not attacking Adams. I just came in from outside detailing the shit out of my DD HHR SS with Adam's full line. I love their product. My post is just stating the FACTS. Period.

facts were the prices. fair enough. insinuating that they treat there customers as stupid is a bit more than facts.

the price is only part of the total picture.

Agree with the post above and have spent close to 2k with Adams, Bar none best products out there. I have no problem with people buying the vacs and blowers from Amazon because those are 3rd party things will always need to be higher markup. But, for the other cleaners, waxes, polishes ... Nothing I have found is better.
