  1. I wear striped shirt 50% of the work week. The other days I wear solid shirts with pin striped pants. I am not a cholo.
  2. The point is, it doesnt matter what it done to it. It was/is/will always... be slow.
  3. No. I am simply stating that I am more knowledgeable than the two of you combined on EVERYTHING.
  4. His is still faster than your Commuter lunch box will ever be. Learn to recognize those who are far more knowledgeable than yourself. Then make a note to yourself not to call them "tards".
  5. yes. I owned an 11.70 DSM and now own a sub 11.50 DSM and I am indeed calling Saturn a shitty car to mod.
  6. he may have had a downpayment. 20k down = 187k house.
  7. I remember a kid going 11.70s with a 16g a lil while back. Good times.
  8. Looks like the car was braking hard before the contact with the cruiser where it transfered most of it's energy. Had it not hit the cruiser a split second before, the cop would have died so hard.
  9. Ive never heard of amerilink. Our membership is a fraction of that cost (it is more along the lines of what I paid for my 15 year old car) and yes, there is a small optional anual renewal.
  10. I think it obvious that I am not going to tell you what the cost is. If someone has an open mind and is willing to be receptive to the service that we provide, I am more than happy to share the info. Akula can attest to that. You, however, have decided to take it upon yourself do attempt to deface my organization and my integrity. I take offence to that. The statement was not that you do not know about business, it was that you know nothing about the business that I represent. Even the facts that you have given about it are incorrect. The fact that there is an inherent method of self sustentation without the requirement of new members built into the model, the fact that a membership is not able to be inherited, Your quip about a membership costing more than a car made me laugh...etc. You run some small dollar company and are now perceive yourself to be an expert on the potential success of a business. It is sad. Instead of criticizing a company that has been in existence for 34 years longer than your own, perhaps you should be asking me what you can learn from it to make your own business more successful. Keyboard warriors who sit behind their monitors on their self constructed pedestals of authority have always made me sad. No amount of positive feedback, statistics, or even tangible experience could change your absolute belief that myself, my company, and our members are wrong. I think you would find life to be a bit more satisfying if you just opened your mind a bit. MODS: Can we split the junk to the kitchen?
  11. I think the short answer would be... no.
  12. It is quite alright. I face skepticism every day. Though, I've never been told that we we're going to go out of business. I got a chuckle out of it.
  13. Let me get this straight. You are telling me that the company I represent is going to fail based on the blurb that I gave about it above. What experience have you had in those long 25 years that gives you the ability to tell anyone who is far more successful than you what will and will not succeed. You are casting judgment upon something that you know absolutely nothing about. Jump in your time machine and tell Henry Ford that he shouldn’t start an industry because he will "over saturate the market". Take a stop by any Home builder and tell him that "Making profit only on new customers makes for an unstable business". Did you miss the part that stated we have been in Worthington for 22 years? It is quite obvious that you do not have an open mind to the concept. You can be one of the people that doesn’t contribute to this "over saturation" of the Columbus market. Mr. Wright: DirectBuy is not an internet business. The showroom is in Worthington on E. Wilson Bridge Rd.
  14. The cost? A lot. We've been in the same building for 22 years so I dont suspect that we will be vacating anytime soon. Not to mention the location that will be opening on the opposite side of town. Since I and a former co-worker of mine joined the company, we made the old sales staff obsolete and took over. We now represent the entirety of said sales staff and have made the Columbus location one of the best performing centers of the hundreds in the country. Our service staff has always been unparalleled and now they are actually able to use their skills with the tremendous influx of new members that we have brought in. In other words, this center is recording profits that it has never seen before. If you wanted to get to the black and white of it though, the owner has 8 years left on his contract for the location. Quite honestly, the membership is not for most people on this site. While anyone could benefit over the long term, we aim at people who have larger projects for their home or major furniture purchases. It would be silly to purchase a membership to only save $900 on a TV. I just like to throw the teasers out there every once in a while.
  15. Ill be the bubble burster and tell yall the cost price on some of these things. Aka the price you could buy it for as a DirectBuy member. Edit- first example: Page 36 of sears, the panasonic Plasma th-50px50u Sears: $4000 - 400 "In store savings"(usually means you have to buy home delivery or install to get it) DB: $2850
  16. I wish we could make the switch to 3.0xx at CDSM. We have been figting apathy and the GD vbb code for long times.
  17. Who do you all think you are speaking logic and reason to this poor boy. He OBVIOUSLY knows what he is doing.
  18. What kind of motor is a TSi AWD motor anyway? Ive always wondered. I bet that swap is super easy. No moving motor mounts or anything.
  19. Motion to move this to the kitchen so I can have more fun with my young friend.
  20. PS. Your car sponsorship link is a scam that takes advantage of naive kids who think their ugly as sin honda civics actually have "sponsors"
  21. They are the exact same slow car. All those parts will work. You should not waste your money on it. It will never be fast by anyone's definition. /bubble burster
