Kick ass or not Steve he broke all the rules,and got the boot......I am starting to get pissed,I have said this on more then one thread,all these free adds are stealing from the people that pay for this site,that we all post on,feel free to PM anyone you wish about his wonder works just not in my Forum
I can't see them costing $1000 here if they are only $600 in the US. I highly doubt it costs an extra $400 for shipping, duty and tax.
If you go and look on there site the 699 dollar US price tag is for the stock and the stock alone. Just like a Mc or any other aftermarket stock, they tac on charges for the adjustable check piece, the mag, rail adapters, a better butt pad and spacers. Here is a pdf link. The ones that are being brought in, are not just the stock, they are, full blown, with every option as you can get. So if you want a 699 dollar stock cool, if you want everything thats shown in the picture, the price goes up.

Did I miss something here, $699 is what you can get if for as a consumer, but deal get slid discount, That how I understood it, and I do believe 1K is a fair, don't get me wrong, Canadian put on a hefty price tag with most of the good come over the border, that not included shipping and tax, example in California they had to pay a little over 8% I believe, but in Canada there are the 5% at the moment, so that some what of a bonus to us. but What I am saying is that some people are less true than Other, and it got nothing to do with any of the dealer that constributed to this sites, that last time I had a talk to a guy down in Calgary about his build 338 Lapua, and it was from his mouth that the price to replace that rifles was around $10,000
If Gun Shop in Edmonton were to carry that stock for 1k, I might buy it, but don't expected me to believe that there are no mark up, just an example!

Well here's something to think about for all of you that think retailers that are bringing stuff up from the states are making a killing; As far as doing paperwork to make stuff legal, that's just time spent and it's not something that's overcharged for. The exporter charges something like $50 or $100 for each stock that they drag up to the border so right off the bat, that's more then 10% of the cost of the stock. As an example, landed cost on the M14 stocks was $900. and they were sold for $1000. To have to place of minimum order of 10 stocks, personally I don't think shelling out that much money to sit on product however long we have to to make 10% is worth it really.
These Rem 700 stocks from JAE are probably going to have to sell for more because, like C4Pyro stated, they have the options that most people will want just like McMillans that take 5 and 6 months to be built.
Let me ask the question to whoever cares enough to answer back, if the landed cost of a product is shown to you, what percentage of markup is reasonable considering the amount of money and the minimum order needed to actually get any? I am interested in your feedback so lets here it.

1 G is not bad for a stock of that quality, I was told that it had a nicer fit than Hs, and better bedding than Mcmillan, the JAE stock actually had the better of both world, better grib than HS stock, at the same time, it already bedded, I am looking forward to seeing it.
Gunboy, lets say for arguement sake, the landed cost on that stock is $1150, obviously no one can sell them for $1000 so what would be a fair price to pay knowing what it cost to get it here? Let me just add that since none of these stocks have been produced yet, there is no way of knowing absolutely what they're going to retail for.
I am just stopping through but I would pay 5 % mark up, but then again I would have to fall in love with this thing as soon as it touched my grubby mitts to pay 1200 + dollars for a stock. I hate that game, you see the price then all the unmentioned costs.

I dealer should be able to get them for less than US retail so once they are here I would expect it to cost more than the US due to shipping and import but not much more. If it is much more and I really wanted it I'd just import it myself by another means. This is all assuming that I want one which remains to be seen.
Profit is not a dirty word. If this is something that's going to be sitting on a shelf in someone's inventory, and the landed cost is, say, $1000, a fair selling price is $1500. If it's a special order item that takes months to get, $1250.

i would be more than happy (answereing glock)
to pay a 15-20 point markup. Think of it this way......NOT your money/line of credit on the line if people jerk yer chain on stuff, NOT your time on the line, NOT you jumping thru hoops when bringing items that need permits into Canada.
ESPECIALLY to a small business owner, that provides service, and quality like no other.... I wouldnt even hesitate.
Its not worth the time nor the effort to markup 5%, somebody has to do the accounting/internal costs....If I couldn't make 15 points why bother
IMHO thats what i believe as I have been around retail sales, and I for one KNOW that youd be lucky to pay JUST 15% from landed cost.
Think of it this way.....The bigscreen tv you buy from best buy, do you acutally think your paying 5% from LANDED for them to bring it in? And process the inventory and then Sell it to YOU? I think not. So what makes them any different? Im sure you still buy a TV knowing this.
Ahhhh from the immortal word of someone I know...... A case of the Cheapitis.....Wanting something for nothing....
I used to do some inventory control for a company that imported stuff like we all buy, (sporting goods)and when i input the ACTUAL landed cost, I tacked on 10%. That I called LANDED COST. Then I marked it up 50% to distributor. Then tacked on 55% ON TOP OF THAT to RETAILER.....
100 doller item.
lands for 110 dollars.(automatic 10% internal markup)
markup to distributor 50% is now 165 bucks
markup to retailer FROM distributor 55% is 255.75.
ALthough this is a BROAD generalization, the figures i used I HAVE USED and I am sure that each and everyone of us have bought at least one of these items in some capacity or another and paid close to the above SUGGESTED markups... (the markup to retailer was the SUGGESTED markup)
COMPARE some items in Cabalas vs WSS even with shipping and exchange etc to you.... This is a another broad generalization as there is ALWAYS exceptions, but if you could get the item from cabelas for say 100 bucks all told, and it 215 in WSS is WSS marking up? U bet. Are u paying/financing them to do business? U bet. is it probably more than 15%? I would bet.
As the above poster said. PROFIT is NOT a dirty word....
So 15 % from someones landed cost, bring it on, and you wont be questioned or here one ##### from me. In fact I might even pay ya more....Or send ya for a steak..... Or ya just never know,.......

Please tell me you sell performance parts for BMWs. I will be your best friend if everything is 5% over landed cost. I've got my fingers crossed.
