quote DAVID:quote zarir:quote DAVID:This is the link for that offer. If you could list down/attach a discounted price for the ARB items, Hope many will come to know & ask about it. It will be difficult to gather together for some items, Other than commonly used (widely used) items such as deflatorDavid please don’t confuse by posting links and comparing without fully realising the exact product.
The one in the link is a different brand and sold at Ramy for 180. The ARB one is a superior product and available at ARB for 250. Hope this clarifies.
No confusions, Here Comes the original price of ARB EZ deflator AED 130, I never said that other club selling “ARB” one. Posting links is not a harmful, if members are going to be benefited from that. Since ARB is selling it directly here a good discount will benefit the members.
David, I agree posting links is not harmful, if members are going to benefit, however David if you are going to do that then please be completely transparent…which you were not and that is harmful 😕
In the context you posted you made the kind offer that DVG, to whom we owe :thanks: , put on the table looks questionable ..was this your intention? I think not, so as I said above please be transparent. Also I think that DVG was looking at the bigger picture of vehicle MODS, really useful equipment, not the ‘nice to have’ accessories market
The link you posted was from AMAZON.COM’s US site, it was not the complete story either and it excluded delivery costs.
What we are looking for here is a level playing field where real costs, locally available, can directly be compared, as in the recent posts about the Fiskars shovel, so that members can benefit from the experience of others. Not wild claims that, this or that, is available at this price, omitting that to get that price you need to be on a number 16 Bus going to Finsbury Park on the second Tuesday of odd months 😀
Here is the rest of your link
As we can see US$48(176dhr) to $35(127dhr) is the price range, delivery and delay are not calculated.
Please lets be totally clear with each other, by this I mean all posters, when it comes to price’s. Just as I was with you David when you asked me about the camel compressor. I gave you the exact, precise location of the shop which door to go through and the price I paid for the item…real facts
:thanks:
I agree with Brian’s statement.
Guys, please keep in mind that its a very kind offer and very good initiative from DVG offering help and support to fellow DOs. Please do not counter such offer of support [-X [-X [-X Since its just an offer, its individual choice to either opt or ignore. Lets not try to evaluate the offer.
We can find tons of options & information (complete and incomplete) on web :-@ :-@ :-@ But how can we ensure the quality and reliability of such tool and equipments, which are very critical in our business?? On that note ARB in this regional market has proved their credibility, beyond doubt :-BD
Personally, i am very thankful to DVG for this good initiative ^:)^ ^:)^ ^:)^ How many such good initiatives to support & help fellow offroaders have come up here??? though I am sure each one of us can contribute to this community with the help of our official & social circle!!! Thankfully remembering Saif Sultan Khan aka Fauji for his dedicated efforts to support, we DOs ^:)^ ^:)^ ^:)^
Thank you for the support that you has been demonstrated by DO/MEO members. This offer is beyond my typical scope of work with the Family and is a gesture from my heart to pass the full benefits of a credible alliance that I have with ARB, to all DO/MEO members.
If there are particular items of interest, which we can get some numbers to buy [similar to the Viking Rope deal], we may achieve a slight advantage. The EZ Deflator, I buy for Dhs.220 and without any bias believe it to be top quality kit and worth this money. The Shop will guarantee plus check that the item is not faulty [it can happen] and that the glass for the gauge is not broken before you take it away.
My offer is for all ARB equipment and services. It is an opt in or opt out offer.
Happy trails
David, I would like to get two EZ deflators. When could I get them? Where are stores selling ARB off road gear in Dubai? Thanks
L-) I do not have any intention to bring heat into this topic, I came to know that other clubs are selling “a” deflator for AED 130 (even i have registered for that) :(( , So i thought to inform DVG that providing an offer for EZ Deflator (like the other club) will be a good move (i do not have any idea behind the brand). I never said that “ARB Deflator” need to be put on offer for AED 130 instead i was informing that the item is also available (May be cost price) in amazon for such a lower cost, Since ARB is here and the shipping charge will be much lower for them to bring it in dubai, So may be if DO members are lucky, Then a good offer can came to us. 😕 😕
Nowadays everything becomes a controversial subject…. 😀 😀 😀
As Brian said about the item price & shipping charge, I had made the purchase on Amazon and it will be in Dubai anytime on the next week, If i got it on Thursday, i can provide a complete price history and show the item… :-w :-w

Note to ALL;
You can discuss further discounts with ARB. They will apply an automatic discount for Club Members but any further reductions will depend of your individual powers of persuasion and of course, the items and value of your intended purchase. I cannot guarantee the result but if might be worth a try and it will have no ill effect on me.
