Re: Forum member discount
I know I could ask this question in your contact page, but I figured I'd ask here so maybe it can be answered for others that might also be wondering.
I'm shopping on your site and putting things in my cart, and figured I'd see what shipping costs would be, and I found something odd. If I put 1 rocker panel in my cart the shipping cost is $12.65 but if I add another, the shipping cost jumps to $50.36. That's an additional $38 dollars to ship the second one. I think there's something wrong. Instead, I could checkout with just the one and pay the $12.95 shipping. Then go back and order the other side and get them both for just a little over $25 total shipping.

Re: Forum member discount
Actually this is a great place to bring it up. The way that the link between the site and UPS Worldship works is dependant on an algorithym that has to caluculate how best to pack multiple pieces and then match those dimensions up with available shipping containers that we've defined. Sometimes a specific combination of parts will return a container that's much larger than what's necessary because you can't explain to the computer that some items fit inside other items (it sees every set of product dimensions as a block). In this case I have re-verified the product dimensions and created a box specifically the size of the added parts and it STILL comes out as costing more to ship together than two individual shipments. That can be true when it trips the "Oversize" triggers but that's not the case on these rockers. That is when we ask customers to implement "Plan B" by calling us, or posting here, or adding a note to their order to indicate that it seems high. We can reduce the shipping cost on your order once we've packed/weighed/measured the box that the parts are actually shipping in before capturing the funds from your card.
Thanks again for bringing this to our attention. If you want to have fun with the website and spend the rest of the day scratching your head like I am do the same routine with '67-'72 rockers where the freight DROPS when you add the second rocker......computers

Re: Forum member discount
Do these panels go from the firewall seam up front to the far rear corner? 1-0848-227 '60-'66 CHEVROLET OUTER CAB FLOOR, DRIVER'S SIDE
How wide are these panels measured from the kick panels? I just need to know before pulling the trigger on the parts needed. Thanks in advance!

Re: Forum member discount
Was checking out your site for the first time and did not find it user friendly. For instance under interior there is no carpet, door panels, dash patd, etc. JMHO.

Best bet for now is to call the store and talk to Chris. All of those items are available and most are in stock.

Re: Forum member discount
Do you carry a bolt kit for the front sheetmetal on '67-'72s? Also, any chance of adding a search function to your website one day?

Re: Forum member discount
I have been very happy with the parts, service, and especially the prices at Topbanana.
When I ordered an new grill for my 52 Envoy/Burb build, http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=348244 the special 'boards' discount got left off. I sent an email to question it about 2:30 yesterday. Within 12 HOURS I had the discount refunded to my Paypal account!!!! They are great!!

Re: Forum member discount
I just posted a review on the page for the front smoothie bumper. I also included a picture of it on my truck. Hope thats ok with you guys at TB. I know as a consumer, I like to see multiple angles and different trucks that have the item Im looking to buy.

Re: Forum member discount
I did get in touch with them a week ago. Tried to order the smoothie bumper for the 67. They were on backorder for 10 to 12 months, they said no one had them.
I seen an ad on Jegs about the bumper. I called and had one in 2 days. Jegs said they had plenty in stock. Looks awesome. Jegs is a couple dollars more, but shipping was way less. Saved money for something else. |

Re: Forum member discount
I know other members have asked but I am going to ask on the status of the rear smoothie bumper. I already have the front smoothie mounted and want to get a smooth from you as well for the rear. Let me know. Thanks.
