Default IO Port One day Sale !!

I just got a postcard in the mail today. http://www.ioportracing.com/ is having a one day sale on December 2, 2003 from 11am to 11pm EST. Internet sales get an extra 5% off the sale prices.
20% off Red Line Oil, books and racer's tape.
10% off IO port camera mounts, seat brackets & braces, and mirrors.
5% off Autopower, Kirkey, Longacre, and everything else.

I do not work for IO Port, just passing along potential savings. I know I need some Red Line water wetter and was thinking of a camera mount. The sale may make things more affordable.

Their phone number is 1-800-949-5712

Just to chime in, I;ve had great experiences with IO Port. I bought their camera mount and love it. Works well with very little vibration, even at 125 at VIR

I made theirs for about 1/3 the price and 2 hours (with help from CRX Lee ), but I still need a safety strap...which I'll be ordering shortly from IOPort.

Putting my list together right now.

Keep this 1 day deal in mind guys, potential for good savings if you shop around and keep tabs on going rates. Was ready to get a 5 gallon fuel jug but, found it cheaper still at Pegasus.

5% on anything they have and an extra 5% if you order online adds up nicely if you combine it with their 20% and 10% list.

Too bad they didn't have this sale when I bought my rollbar last year

Hum, would you care to share the "how to build your own" camera mount? I/O Ports would be like $85 given the 10% and 5% discount today.

Thanks,
Richy

Sweet. I could make a pretty nice mount in the Mizzou shop if I wanted to, but I can't make Redline oil or water wetter and I can't make a new Bell helmet. :D

waitaminute...

On the Redline Oil web page it states that there is a 15% discount on cases of 12. Does this mean that you now get 35% off a case of Redline oil??? 40% off if ordered on-line?!?!?

Is this right?

According to the post card, you get a 20% discount on Redline oil and an additional 5% discount if you order online. I don't see where the extra discount comes in but, I'd guess that just the 25% would apply towards their web advertised pricing.

I also spoke to them about an hour ago after placing my order online. I didn't see the immedaite discount but, was assured that the sales pricing and discounts will be applied before the order is filled and charged. And just hold onto my reciept if any problems arise.

I've had good experiences with IO port in the past so I don't think there will be any negative issues.

Just call them for clarification, the lady on the phone was extremely nice and helpful.

Look at the bottom of the page:

http://www.ioportracing.com/Me...=RLOA

If I ordered one quart of Redline I should get 20% off.

If I order a case would I get 20% off or 35% off?

Even then we are talking about roughly $65 (give or take depending on when tax is applied). As soon as I get off work I'm calling to confirm this price.

Let's see... 35.4% off... pick-up at store to save shipping... 24 quarts for ~$130... Hmmm... I guess Christmas is coming early this year

From the postcard and the site catalog frontpage:

"20% Red Line discount supersedes our normal 15% discount on case quantities"

Thanks for the reminder, David. I received my postcard, but wouldn't have remembered.

I just placed an on-line order, but I just couldn't quite order a second rollcage (maybe next year).

hi there,

i just placed an order via the internet for a camera mount. the order
should include a
15% discount total according to your one-day sale. if you could please send
me an
email with the exact total that i'm getting charged, that would be great.

also, i requested regular ups ground shipping, as i am in caifornia. if for
some
reason you don't believe that my package will arrive before 12/11/03, please
let me
know. i would really like to have it for the weekend of the 13th, so if i
have to change
the type of shipping i will.

thanks in advance. i was turned on to your sale from several of your fans
on honda-
tech.com.

the quick shipment is appreciated, i'm just a bit perturbed that they can charge my card and take my money, but not take a second to tell me what i'm being charged. i can do the math on what i should be charged, but it would be nice if they could tell me what i was being charged. i don't anticipate a problem, it's the principle. the fact that i had to sign off on an order that did not have the actual amount on it already makes me squirm. maybe i'm just paranoid.

i doubt that he will charge you until he knows what amount to charge you. at that point he will probrably let you know how much you are being charged.
my guess is that the discounts are not automated and are all being done by hand, which is why the website shows regular pricing and they cant respond with your discounted pricing immediately.
