the shop in Langley wanted $1600 for a new tao tao 150b and the shop in Newton wants $1348 for a new tao tao 150b + you get a free helmet with the purchase.
I am at a loss as to who i deal with now because the one in Langley was suppposed to be the better store.

I don't care if the price is lower, they're not getting any of my money.

I agree with Weld; I would stay far away from the Sinclairs.

prices
All dealers are suppose to be in a certain price range .. they are not suppose to sell for a lower than set price... but they can give you stuff to make it a better deal... the main thing is does the dealer treat you right... or screw you on warranty & other help... this is why I sell so much... I give a lot of after sales help and support.. SINCLAIRS is like a lot of other ... sell the item take the cash and you have a nice day.... almost always on larger machines like 125 cc & up.. I tell people to buy a good chain.. and about the fuel & other how to do.. and they can call me about anything.. you might as well buy off of ebay for all the help that I hear from SINCLAIRS.. If you want to save some $$ buy in ALBERTA save some tax.. and you know what parts are only covered by warranty...
