    good news guys, i got some numbers back for 3 ropes, im not going to post them just yet because im trying to work on a little bit lower of a deal for more orders and im trying to get a lower price on one of the ropes for the minimum amount of orders


    also the guy ive been dealing with is with 4wheelparts due to the fact that the 4wheelparts store is my local distributor for bubba ropes. so im assuming this also means free shipping on our orders because the ropes are listed as free shipping on 4wp.com

    Yea the 30' is the one that I would be getting. 20' just isn't enough rope for some mud holes we've seen.

    have you tried going directly to bubba rope, that way there is one less place trying to make money. By going through 4wp you may be able to get a good deal but they still need to make a profit. If you go directly to Bubba rope you might be able to able to qualify for their vendor price and then we as the end buyer see a large discount and bubba gets their normal selling price.

    Maybe try calling. I ran a GB once and the way the company explained it was that they were making me an authorized retailer and I could sell the items for whatever price I wanted. They still handled all money and shipping so it was good for everyone.

    I am interested in a 30' but would rather not give 4wp any of my money after some bad customer service experiences with them.

    That would be sweet. If that is there real store I wouldnt doubt they are already selling it a hair cheaper then retail.

    And to everyone wanting the 30' im gonna send hjm another email tonight letting him know most of us are in for the 30' so he is more inclinded to lower the price a bit

    Look at build!
    Look into Southeast Overland as well..


    Theyre a Vendor here and im sure they could get a GB going as well if the bubba rope doesn't get down as low as we'd all like, Its $125 on SEO site, they also do in house winch line and splicing etc. I recently picked up so "Oh No" handles from there and a 30' strap! Awesome to deal with and local to SC!

    Didn't have a chance to make it out there to Casselberry today, classes ran a little longer than expected. But tomorrow I should be able too and see if we can deal directly with them.
