LOVE seeing this! Especially since calling up FFTec 2 weeks ago to be told they don't wanna play with DSMs anymore. :(

They may not, but I still do. Message me if you need anything done.
 
I really don't know how to feel about losing all these vendors that, without DSMs, wouldn't be where they are today. On one hand...totally don't blame them because modern DSM owners are a mother f***er to deal with. None of them want to pay for a quality product, they ask a million questions and expect a brand new product for $100 shipped paypalled and ready to go, and generally make me want to give up entirely.


On the other hand, I feel like they should still be open to working on a DSM if the person shows they have cash ready to go and pays a deposit. If you've got cash in hand, why turn someone away? Especially if they're the reason your business is even here today.
 
Because the dollar per hour spent on DSMs is not worth the hassle. Think about how many "Well I read on the internet that an HX35 can make 500hp easy." calls a shop gets a day (that was for you Triz). Or, "My stock 14b has gone 10s on someone elses car, I want to do the same for $500."

The mindset of a DSMr is completely different than a GTR owners. For GTRs you get guys that must come in and say, "I want to beat my buddies Lamborghini, I don't care how much it costs."

Sympathy doesn't pay the bills guys, its just the way the world works. Its not shops leaving the DSM market, its DSMrs making shops disappear from the market.

I see, I see. I was wondering your take on it. That's about what I had figured.


Here's hoping Evos become really affordable and all these POS DSM owners giving us a bad wrap move on as fast as possible so we can hopefully salvage what's left of our scene.
