Jeesh thought you were half Italian not Jewish lol, I joke i joke. But ya just ask, says on their site you can get a discount for a journal but they like you to have a few grows under you belt and been here a little while so they know you will finish it. No offence meant by that but you could always ask and see if they would not be opened to the idea.

email A51 and ask... never pay asking or listed price for anything. Always haggle. Its a buyers market.

That's one of the reasons I started my Snow White thread. I'm curious what he'll bring in 2015.

Why?

I'm curious if he'll develop better customer service skills instead of thinking that everyone buying lights is a highschool stoner lol idk if he has someone reply for him or not, either way, he flat out ignored a couple of my emails for 2 days until i sent another. He replied, but still ignored my last 2. all this hassle for $25 extra off on the $50. Dont get me wrong I appreciate it and will take it, but he's saying he cant give me the code unless i tell him exactly how many of what panel im getting so he can generate it for that. But the dude takes a whole day to reply. I couldve ordered days ago.

lmao already contemplated that. Except he knows people want his lights. And my girls want them, and apache makes too big/expensive of panels.(no debate on apache price quality blah blah) It reminds me of the guy who had the best weed, but was late all the time, awful cust service, but knew ppl would still want his weed lol Cant change everybody, and i highly doubt my little "boycott" will drive his profits down far enough that theyre even noticed. rant over lol

Jeff/Eraserhead at Area 51, is good about replying to emails, when he sees them.
The issues is that the companies email gets bombarded with hundreds of emails a day from Chinese LED manufactures that want A51's business.
Because of this, many of our customer emails get lost in the shuffle, even my own.
Jeff has addressed this issue before, but it's been a while, so I thought I'd fill you in.

You know that EH can get cranky at times?.....you keep asking him for a discount, you might end up with zero panels sold to you;-) .....just an fyi

Ya it is still a free market after all, seems like a lot of the higher end panels lack in the custoker service area mostly because they do not have product moving large like some places. Inda gro for example.has their own csr and they are excellent to deal with, most of the time you still end up talking the darryl the pres.

ya no kidding lol sounds like you know him personally lol dude blows up cause i posted about him in here. My opinion about his customer service still stands more than ever and PSU's comment strengthens it. lol Don't know any businesses that ATTACK their customers for the feedback given.

You could re label the return customer discount as a senior citizen discount, you folks do not know the difference anyways lol :P
^ this discount is real right I am not tripping?tried to find it on a51 site again but no joy....

EH took a day to get back to my original e-mail inquiry of when the xgs would be back when they first ran out last month, literally told me they would be getting a good stock of that light in and should not have any inventory problems in the future. Fastforward six weeks from when they got the xgs in and they are already sold out again! After I got his ear it was a pretty quick back and forth of I would ask him something and I would have an answer the next day, had heard him say something about the chinese led manufacturers being a bunch of dick riders and he could not get a good enough spam filter lol

I recently paid twenty six to return a faulty light. Maybe I get discount on next 190. Im a little faded just got back from brewery. Talking out loud so to speak. They were cool to save last one for me though. They let me upgrade as well. Should receive on Thursday. I'm stoked!!! Maybe I'll start a journal and talk out of my arse a little.
