Do you not realize that people would rather buy from a reputable vendor with the option to return or process warranty claims? What if your BNIB parts have a manufacturer defect that you didnt know about? Will you replace the coilovers with a new set if that happens? I highly doubt it. The warranty these coilovers come with is for the original purchaser only, and KW is very strict on that. Why would anyone take a chance, when for the same price, they can get it from a vendor?

You have to give the buyer some incentive to buy from you instead; and that incentive is always a lower price.

And when someone quotes a price "shipped", that means you pay that price, and the parts get shipped out. No more. No less.

You might as well install these if you think you will get all your money back. Or just return them?

+1000 No one will buy anything at the price a vendor sells it new unless they are in a big hurry and local to you. This is not one of those items that someone needs in a hurry.

Everyone is a c*ck blocker on these forums.

Essentially just offer to help your buyer with warranty issues and you should be golden. i.e. give them a receipt and they should be covered. The chances of needing warranty are pretty slim, I have not heard of a ton of failures on the ST Kit. I personally had one and it was great, I just took it off to upgrade.

People will be willing to spend money for instant gratification assuming you are patient, maybe advertise on craigslist too.

LOL "I want ALL MY MONEY BACK, no less"

Sorry bro, but Im not a dick like you. This is a car enthusiast forum. Not ebay or craigslist. If I know that something is a bad deal, Im gonna let everyone know. Just as Im grateful when others point out the bad deal to me.
