    This thread should only be about inexpensive bumpers and it's a shame people come in here and hate on people's budget choices, but having all the info on quality vs cost is advantageous and should be thoroughly discussed in here.

    I believe that it was 300 + pages

    Really? You represent that attitude to future customers reading that towards folks that may or may not want to buy your product that’s probably not a very good call on your part

    Good luck with your sales technique I think it’ll work out for you in the long run

    Your contradiction is showing...

    We treat all customers with respect. You’re not going to be a customer. I’ve not been rude to you. You’re hear to troll and shit talk for no reason.

    Oh geez things are getting serious!! I have the bumper an had fitment issues already knowin what to expect. I maybe one of the few that read all the pages before buying. Asked other members who had it An their thoughts all said basically the same pros an cons.
    I decided to get it cause with the money I saved I could buy more stuff for the truck. I admire all the vendors for what they do An never had bad customer service
    Only one purchase from Mobtown the tailgate skin GB shipped fast perfect condition still just need to install.

    why does this thread bring them out lmao

    for what it's worth, I like my ebay bumper, which I bought used locally from me. It works, but I know it doesn't have the actual engineering that most steel products have from vendors on here.

    Take @Mobtown Offroad for example, i'm sure they've done extensive testing (and probably FEA) before launching a product. I had money set aside and could've gotten sliders from anywhere, but I knew that theirs would be the best bolt on option for me. I've wheeled the snot out of them, and they've continually impressed me. I definitely don't mind paying a reasonable price for something that has that much engineering and workmanship. You really do get what you paid for.

    My question to you... what qualifies you to determine whats overpriced? And furthermore post it in here without any factual backing. You're slamming others for the exact same thing you are guilty of perpetrating.

    Sorry @JustATaco4me, I have delt with @Mobtown Offroad offroad before and they are a solid vendor. Actually, you would be hard pressed to find a vendor here that is NOT solid. I would gladly pay more for a product here then some random person, or company, on Ebay.

    Never stated that they weren’t solid
    Expensive yes quality yes so...

    Look at Toyota at one time Detroit the Paris of the United States dogged japan for their product

    I’ve made my point

    Price point supply and demand

    The that sell starting out cheap refine and win more customers

    Chiming in about products and cautioning others really?

    I won’t buy from mob town on their attitude Alone

    I’m the consumer a potential customer
