I’m just happy that you like yourself! That’s important!
Working that panda coin money... 😉
Not really sure if I got any from that though... 🤔 😆
Rediculous prices

He needs a coin or cash register sound every time you do something to earn one.

I am one to complain as well... Because funds are limited yet desires are high... 😆
But... I much more respect the forum members who actually care, participate, and design/craft their own mods for sale or are a distributor, such as yourself...
But tuff skins? Those stickers? Yeah... I'm gonna complain and won't respect the "limited, toy segment" argument. That doesn't cost much and they're clearly taking advantage... But enough people buy so it is what it is... Others research and use their money elsewhere... My 2 cents.
And you can always get slightly used parts from forum members if needed.

Don't pick on MiM he has 2 parts that are new on his sling that we put on!

I do? Which ones? 😆

I just wish people understood that there is a difference between "overpriced" and "out of budget", just because "we" can't afford something doesn't automatically give "us" the right to say that it's overpriced.
I am yet to see a truly overpriced slingshot aftermarket part compared to standard practices from other toys I own, I have seen stores/vendors that charge more than others but that is just a matter of personal preference and doing your due diligence before you buy. -

I'll second this notion. Patience, it just takes patience. I have refused to pay most, (not all), vendor new prices where several of our mods came about by being patient and purchasing second hand, some still new and never installed.

I actually joke that there are parts of my slingshot all over the nation. I have either sold things super cheap or given them away to at least 20-25 slingshot owners....it just dawned on me...I might have an issue...

Been there and done that. That is what friends are for!

I recall helping you install a radiator overflow tank and silicon hose kit that were both new.

Yeah, and he had them for almost 2 years before we installed them for him!

And don't forget the springs! Heck, we risked our lives doing that for him. (But that's what friends are for.)

Sooooo - not new.

IIRC, those were used, but I may be misremembering that one, just remember the tank and hoses

$99 for new peal and stick lettering for the back fin. Your joking, right? Jeebus everything is so over priced with the SlingShots it's almost not worth doing the mods.
My 2 cents
Although I agree in general about ridiculous prices, keep in mind that as we try to create items in the USA and not China things will cost more and I want to support our country. Just the reality things made in the USA cost more. I have kayaks I bought that are made in the USA and I could have spent way less with chinese knock offs.

Sooooo - not new.
He had to wait for the parts to age!
-
Sooooo - not new.
I almost bet that he still has parts on the shelf that he is planning on installing
-
Hee hee, as I am looking at "vendor" under the title?
Bill
Oh the irony... lmao

And I can agree with this line of reasoning, to a point, though I believe that many vendors are now using this as a selling ploy just to charge a customer more?
