    I saw the same thing yesterday but I thought it was the cheaper type. I thought I was just seeing it but mixing it up with another product but I guess not huh



    Maybe it`s cheap because of all this polymeyer (spelling ??) stuff coming out, most of it already has a good shine and I don`t think most people can justify 70.00 for wax.

    The MSRP of Souveran was $69.95 before, and that`s what everyone has been selling it for. It was sold on the Pinnacle site for $69.95 as well up until.....now. They have also lowered the price of their kits -- the Souveran intro kit that was $80 before is now $69.95!

    They even have PPCL for 10 bucks and Pinnacle clay bar for 20 bucks!



    Then again I got souveran wax, body work shampoo, PPCL, and 2 applicators for 50 bucks, and someone still make a profit!

    This looks like a pissing contest... Bob, the owner of pinnaclewax.com is obviously mad that CMA won`t let them sell BLACKFIRE. How long will they last if they give the product away at near cost? Hey, it`s a good deal. Snatch it up!

    So whats the deal here with the pinnacle site David mentions?



    Too many sites selling stuff. My head hurts again.



    Seems they have everything CMA has except a few names have been changed to protect the innocent Ie Cobra Vs Viper.

    Why would Pinnacle want to sell Blackfire unless it was relabeled as their own? I wouldn`t really agree with this statement because of my impressions from Pinnacle`s web site and overall consumer image.

    Just curious.

    puterbum,



    CMA makes the Pinnacle products. Pinnaclewax.com is sort of like a distributor, they are not the maker of the product. Many sites buy product from CMA and then resell it. Those sites have wanted to buy BlackFire from CMA and then resell it, but CMA is not selling BlackFire to distributor sites they are going to keep it for themselves. So in protest some distributor sites are selling the Pinnacle products for less money, that way CMA does not make as much money on the products sold.

    Oh my, I`ve missed a bit. So I assume CMA will mark down their price on Souveran sometime soon. I feel kind of dumb now that I just looked at the About Us part of CMA`s site and saw they make Eimann Fabrik and Pinnacle.



    Sorry for the poorly researched post and thanks for the information.

    But I have so many products in my garage already...
