21 people have bought 22 chips




Mark, supposedly we got you 28 chips sold. Could we get the 25% off, or is that still a no go?

[Alkasquawlik]

Is his website down?

I just clicked on a link and it said it was forbidden.
I don't know whatsup.

Come on guys, let him make some money on these.

I was getting ready to buy one at full price, so the 18% is just a bonus. We are already getting over $40 off full price.

Let's not get greedy.

O I'm not getting greedy at all. I'm just saying if 28 chips were sold, which looks like a possibility, if he'd give us a bigger discount due to the whole income thing. And I'm sure if there was a bigger discount, even more people would sign up for one. I didn't mean to be disrespectful at all.

I hope you don't mind if I cap the discount at 15% + 3% early bird bonus, I thought that was pretty good. I had maybe 15 sales in the last 4 months so this just helps me catch up. Plus those sales were when the $CAN was higher, so I didn't make much on them. I know the market for OBD-I chips is declining every year, but this past year was really bad, especially after that one guy I mentioned in July started shipping clone chips with the 19# injectors he was selling. Now that $1USD = $0.79 CAN, I was able to take 15% off.

Someone else emailed asking about a 25% discount, and he said that I'd make an extra $1K from the added sales, but I calculated that I'd actually have $600 less in net sales after the refunds. (based on 25 sales). Right now, around 24 people have paid for 25 chips.

What I'll do is extend the early bird discount till next Friday evening. (I had mistakenly thought that the American Thanksgiving was this weekend, and that's why I picked yesterday as the early bird deadline)
Then next Saturday, I'm going to see what the sales have been and *may* decide to increase the discount to 18% + 3% for the earlybirds for a total of 21%. If I get 12 more sales, I'll do it.

Thanks for the orders so far!

Need to pay the swap chop first. What is the price for s52 odb1 swapped chips?

[Kristeun]

So which one should I get for a stock 88 325is? 93 or 91? Because sometimes I have to go with either depending on what's available and so does it make a difference?

Also, can I swap to #17/19 injectors without making my fuel guage/range useless?

The 93 vs. 91 chip makes a difference. Noticeable.

I put the 17lb/hr injectors in and it actually made my OBC dead-on accurate. Ironic.

[Kristeun]

So should I just go for the 93? So what would happen when I could only get 91 at the pump?

Edit: nm read Marks post about it.

But so running 93 on a 91 chip wouldn't do any harm right?

[Mystikal]

You'd have to avoid putting any less than 93, ever again.

Or do what I did, and just keep the stock chip in the car in case of such an emergency. Swapping it takes 5mins or less after you do it the first time.

And yeah, 91 and up is good to go for a 91 chip.

[xLibelle]

Mark, i didnt mean to bug you about the deal. I'm guessing your sale count is at about 25 now and my calculations were based on 33 sales. Thats a realistic target but sales can be a gamble.
I will do what i can to spread the word further and help some more chip sales along... especially if youre considering going further. ;)

Cheer's to your holiday fortune! You deserve it when there's dedication to a community thats close knit like the e30 groups.

Waiting for the exchange rate to drop... argh.

Waiting for the exchange rate to drop... argh.

Canadians can send me the funds in $CAN.

Right now, $188 USD is $239 CAN :

Live rates at 2008.11.24 00:37:44 UTC
188.00 USD = 239.515 CAD
United States Dollars Canada Dollars
1 USD = 1.27401 CAD 1 CAD = 0.784920 USD

If you send me an email saying you want to pay in $CAN, I can send out a PayPal invoice for that amount. That will save you the foreign exchange costs.
You can even email me the funds, all the big 5 banks have that feature via the online banking and it only costs you $1.50 to send it.
