Yes you do get what you pay for but also there are folk that produce things that should cost a lot more.
At the end of the day there is a set of plans to make the chassis and folk are happy with a 900 quid chassis....when it comes to the body work it's a different bag of onions because there are NO drawings to work from so a shape has to be made then painted then moulded yet folk say bodywork is expensive...  Best I crawl back under my rock, feeling sorry for myself today as twatted my wrist and scuppered myself for a good few days

Not picking holes in anything or with anyone and my moto is "expect nothing and you wont be dissapointed" and without seeing the goods pictures do not show off the goods to their best,look at Jordan,(no thanks).
People make things for a good reason,self satisfaction (Roadster,I made this!) for other people (sale) and the old cherry Profit. You only have to read this forum and a zillion others and you get the same old same old every time,people are entitled to their opinion right or wrong. My point is,look at what you are getting/buying and if it pleases you and is what you require buy it. Caveat Emptor if I remember correctly is latin for "Buyer Beware do I need to say more........... And this is not aimed at or near any individual for any reason and the vendors that frequent the site/forum by their own admission are genuinely involved in the product/manufacture. The cost is a premium factor of course but who is to say that a chassis from north of Watford for a larger amount is better than one from the southern regions for a lesser amount again I have no axe to grind and really dont give a toss,choice is exactly that ! Flack awaited.... Last edited by flyerncle : 8th August 2009 at 01:14 PM. Reason: Re-read other post

No flack required Paul, your words/comments are spot on.
whilst i,m not going to go into my pricing structure, i feel the prices i have quoted offer a service to supply a chassis kit at a price that covers my costs etc & a little more to cover my time & enable me to hopefully develop my venture. i sincerely wish anyone that offers similar kit/kits the very best of luck & success in their venture & i am sure the customer base is strong enough to make their own choice of supplier from their own reasoning. best regards andy

).There are all sorts of examples of situations where paying more doesn't get you anything extra, and in many cases may even be less. Equally there are examples where paying more does get you something extra. The quality or value of any products or sevices CANNOT be assessed by checking the price, but that's exactly what that saying suggests, it suggests that if you pay more you get more, and although that is often true it is not always true. Let's take the examples we have already seen on this thread, now, anybody who uses that saying is going to suppose that the more expensive chassis it the better one. I reckon that they, and that saying, will both be wrong.

We do offer a roll-hoop, yes.
The two chassis that are displayed were for a customer order for 2 kits, consisting of all suspension wishbones, floor, 6-piece bodywork, roll-hoop, chassis, and all the bushes and inserts for the 'bones, plus the nuts and bolts to hold them on. As I said, all of this will appear soon on both our EBay store and our web-site. Our prices reflect the quality of the items we sell and ensure it's worth our while doing it.
