Doesn't this package deal make buying other pads silly?

It is all preference. You have to remember with the Edge pads you are getting two pads in one and if you hate velcro backing plates you don't have to deal with them on the Edge Pads.

If so, I'd like to know, but wouldn't you think the largest supplier of pads would be trustworthy? Not to mention no one has problems with the LC 6.5 pads, or 4 pads, so how would the 5.5 be the kiss of death?
 
When you purchase them by the gazillions, you can afford to let them slip away for such a price. Little guys dont stand a chance with those kinds of offerings. I recommend a total boycott.

On the other hand, hows there customer service, and whoever it is that answers the phone, when was the last time they actually detailed a car? Or are they reading from a predefined crap shoot? Not bashing AG, just bringin up some points that may be of concern to those who purchase from them......Maybe the pressure from the smaller boutique sites instigates this sell off! :heelclick
 
I think that's just the regular price on 5.5" pads. They cost the same when I ordered them about 2mo ago. And Danase now has the 5.25" CCS pads for even less than AG sells the 5.5" flat pads for.
 
Sure it's a great price, but you have to buy 6 of them to get the price. Not everyone needs 6 of the exact same pad. Based on that you can't really compare the price of a pad in a kit (of 6) to a single pad price of another brand. It's apples and oranges.

Not to mention we sell our 7.5" pads in a 6 pack for less than their 5.5" pads.

Right, and a 7.5 is like a 5.5 how? This is for PC use. However, I do agree that your price on the 5.25" CCS pads are great! :heelclick Not to mention your prices on other things. All I was saying was one little deal at Autogeek, and everyone is up in a fuss. hehe



I'm happy with my $5 pads, and yes white pads, having 6 is never too many. :think:

So far, I've made 4 orders at $100+ from Autogeek, and they have stellar customer service. Large or not, they have a friendly, helpful staff. Being bigger makes no difference. Read their site, and you'll see what I mean. Shoot, they even have pics of all the people that work for them. And you can call them and talk to a live person in less than a minute. It's not like we're talking about Wal Mart here guys. This is still a little, family run shop in FL.

I find it refreshing being able to purchase high quality Lake Country pads for only 5 bucks a pop. Someone please give me a reason (for PC users) why a $18 Edge pad, or $12 Sonus/Propel pad can touch a LC low pro 5.5" pad for 5 bucks.



Justin-devil's advocate today. :angry :nixweiss

Cant really compare edge to any of the pads out there today. They are a totaly different design with more material being used and they are 2 sided. 1 pad=2.



I agree though, besides edge, pads are to expensive for what they are.

the larger the pad the more they should cost.



F.Y.I. Patrick is also a sponser here

thanks for the heads up on the price

but give these guys a little respect the knowledge they can give you is worth

far more than the few bucks you are going to save on a pad
 
Umm ok. What knowledge are they "giving me" in a thead about the best priced product on the market? And what's this "far more than the few bucks you are going to save on a pad" business. You guys are so dramatic, you're telling me if I ask a question now, Patrick/Bob will eschew me simply because I bought a differnet buffing pad then he sells? Sure makes a lot of sense (and I doubt they'd turn a potential future customer away). I hope this type of reply isn't the norm around here when things get a bit "different." All I see is defensive people trying to defend the products they sell, or people like you defending what you like.



Sure the edge are 2 sided, they better be 4 sided for 20 bucks a pad!
