DBA set the RRP prices, and in your case the rear rotors cost the same, I guess there is as much cost in a sold thinner rear as a vented wider front? If companies are selling the rears for less in YOUR case, they are jacking the price of the front rotors or sacrificing the price on the rears to sell a full set.
If you read back from the beginning of the thread I did tell people to chase their own prices up for comparison. Andrew and I aren't going to ring several shops for 10 different model rotors just to get independant quotes for every single person... Seriously guys, I'm pretty close to saying "**** it" at the moment. If you want a lower price, go get a quote with a reference number that we can ring up and verify. But we can't undercut compaines that can purchase in huge volumes at wholesale when we can't! Making it all worthwhile at the same time as meeting people's expectations is proving difficult...

I apologise for my honesty, but if you were to try it all for yourself and were met with responses like that, you'd feel pretty dejected at the end of the day too...

Please update the list as you feel fit.
Gav.

Yeak okay, fair enough, I must have read this thread wrong as I thought this was a group buy to help out AGT member acquire new rotors cheaperfor cheaper. Sorry, my mistake.

I don't expect your to run around and phone multiple shops for prices either. If it gives you the ****s. Just give it up. "**** it," as you put it.

Anywayz I'm out, thank you also for looking into these parts for me. I am thankful.

Update:

There's an announcement coming shortly from Andrew. He's been sick, and I've not heard from him since Friday night. We've both been re-evaluating how things are going to work in regards to business vs group buy, so if you were ever were serious about buying rotors in the first place you may find the outcome more what you originally expected. I'm not going to be the poster boy for rotors anymore, that's for sure.

here we go. with a minimum purchase of 20 rotors in the GB, we'll give 17.5% off rrp.

so the guys with the $117 rotors, that price will now become $107.25ea + postage (if any).

remember, mimimum of 20 rotors must be purchased in the GB to get this price

The guys with $117ea rotors that are now $107.25ea, would normally pay $130rrp, if you buy 4 rotors, it's a fully sik bro $aving... I hope this is now sufficient enough for those that wanted blood from a stone!

I'll put up a price list shortly of all the rotors enquired about, if Andrew doesn't beat me.

Atleast $150 for Mazda??? Look again!!! I've removed the RRP incase it didn't make sense to everyone, it was just there to illustrate the 17.5% saving... What's your car Andrew Grazier?

DBA216X - $132.00ea
DBA4545S - $181.50ea
DBA532S - $107.25ea
DBA533S - $107.25ea
DBA534S - $107.25ea
DBA535S - $165.00ea
DBA536S - $115.50ea
DBA537S - $99.00ea
DBA539S - $99.00ea
DBA546X - $132.00ea
DBA931S - $132.00ea
DBA950S - $107.25ea
DBA951S - $115.50ea

Gav.

EDIT: We can get the VT-VX Commonwhore rotors at $99ea also (DBA040S, DBA041S) with 17.5% discount, but these are DBA slotted rotors, not inferior copied RDA rotors from China. If you are lucky enough like me to have the BJ 1.8 Astina or Protege, you can do just aswell as the Commonwhore on pricing!
