supporting sponsors--short rant
First, I think it's great to have all the supporting sponsors. Without them we probably wouldn't have all the mods on our spyders.
But, this is JMO. When I start a thread with the sponsor's name in the title, I would expect a reply. Some may say that the sponsors don't do a 24/7 watch on this place and I would agree. However, if you are a suppoting sponsor, I would expect when you came on here that you would periodically scan the threads that may apply to you; especially when the thread title has your name.
I started a thread 2 weeks ago and never got a reply. I also know that I can call them. But, I look at it this way, if they don't respond they are not interested in selling and I'm not going to chase them.
I won't mention any names. I'll just say that this sponsor sells lights and it is not MM and it's not Kewl Metal.
Rant off.

Have you tried emailing them directly? It may be more efficient than waiting for them to check the forum. At least you know it went to the right place. JMO

Personally, I think the purpose of ads is to get people to come to you, not so the advertiser has to chase down everyone who might have seen their ad someplace.

Well said...

SpyderLovers Founder
If you're talking about this post http://www.spyderlovers.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=21975 I don't think he saw it. This board moves pretty fast and if you don't check it everyday it would be real easy to miss it. Why not give him a call or drop him an email and use a direct contact instead of counting on this board as a direct link to the sponsors here.

I've been having some problems with my RT-S so I posted a notice on the town bulletin board requesting the dealer fix it. They never replied, so I'm going to go somewhere else.
Sound absurd? Just making a point. It's best to go right to the source. Using honey is better than vinegar.

I have e-mailed his company and he answered me pretty quickly, so try that? He may be pretty busy also, I know a lot of people like his fender lights for added safety.

I PM'ed Bert's Mega Mall for a price quote rather than emailing him. Not only does it pop-up in their face when they log in, it lets them know exactly where I found them.

My wife and I have sent him numerous emails, and have always gotten a reply within a reasonable amount of time. I would definitely try that, or at least sending a PM to him.

Reggy contacted me this morning and I called him back. He's got some great product and I placed my order today. The misunderstanding was my fault and from now on I will be contacting him directly.

If I'm not mistaken, the vendor you mentioned had posted that he was heading off to Sturgis just before you posted yours - maybe you missed his.
I would hope that none of the vendors on this site would intentionally neglect a fellow Spyderlover.

So, what did you order?
I ordered the trunk release. I'll probably get the fender lites next.

THIS DEALER FIX IT BOARD YOU SPEAK OF - where do you find this at? I am very interested in this - didn't know it existed.

As a Sponsor on SpyderLovers, we at SealFloorBoards feel that it's just good business to "prospect" for new customers and do everything we can to spread the word on our products. To sit and wait for customers is a good way to grow cobwebs, not to find Spyder Lovers.

I was looking at one of those as well. Please let us know how it works out for you, as it sounds like a really cool addition for the Spyder.

Len, there is no such thing. The post is what is known as sarcasm, and it was meant to get a point across through the use of humor. He was saying he posted a message on a bulletin board in his town, kind of like the ones they have outside of some grocery stores, just to make a point.

I'd be more than happy to post a note for you, but you'll have to be satisfied to be ignored by MY dealer!
