Just another thought, what about those of us that get 'special' treatment from non sponsors? Is that not worth passing on?Jonno wrote:Same here, no sponsors listed for my area AFAIK?Gosling1 wrote:The only way to find out if it is of any value to members, is for those members who have received discounts with a Sponsor to let the Forum know. You could run a 'Sponsor Poll' for a few weeks, this would at least set a baseline of some sort ? Results from a sponsor poll would identify those sponsors who get regular business, and those who don't, and should probably be flicked ??MadKaw wrote:....The point of this thread is to find out if the Sponsor arrangement is of any value to members and should we keep it...? If so, who and why.?
Having *no* sponsors in the local area here somewhat restricts any feedback, but like a lot of members, local discounts are already occuring anyway.....
If there was I would use them, generally as a regular at a few shops I can get decent discounts anyway or search the online stores especially importing from the USA.

Re: Austsales Direct - still offers its discounts
Matt, thanks for the response, I have checked your ebay site and am awaiting to shed a few more kilos before I come knocking, would hate to buy one only to shrink a littleaustsalesdirect wrote:Hello KSRC members,
Throughout the time I have had my advertisement up I've had at least 5 sales that I know of, linked from the KSRC site. Pabs has helped me get my name out for my motorcycle gear, which I appreciate very much. My prices are very good compared to the markets and retail shops ($180-$225 for leather motorcycle jackets).
The discount I offer is a fixed postage and handling rate of $10 (normally $25), I would prefer you find the motorcycle clothing you want on my eBay page then contact me for a direct sale. If you live locally in the area, you can pick up the jacket at my eBay price (no p&h fee).
Although $15 doesn't seem like a very big discount, it is still a discount. My prices are very competitive, normally a considerable amount cheaper than other sellers. I also offer 30 day warranties for peace of mind and security for my customers. Occasionally 0.99cent NO RESERVE auctions are offered through my eBay page.
This business is solely run by myself, I'll do my best to get involved with the forum conversations however it is a lot of work for one person.
Something we can organise:
I will be happy to donate some gear to KSRC every at different intervals, depending on the sales I get out of the KSRC website.
Dave if your after a suit, I encourage you to check out my ebay store, I have some high quality leather suits starting at fairly low prices. If you would rather your own design I can sell you one custom made for $500 (normally $550 to $650 for a custom made suit)
Sorry for the long message, I will check this forum page regularly to see what your thoughts are.
Austsales Direct is always negotiable. What does the KSRC Members want?
Thanks
Matt

No worries, please remember my leather gear does stretch a little, so its best to get a snug fit. Ask Pabs about the jacket he bought, the jacket gave a little but after 6months his shoulders got too broad for the size jacket he had. Good on ya pabs! lol
