I used to use the Vancouver Island RX-7 Club one a lot, been using my dad's company account lately.
Even with discounts, prices don't seem that great. I've never purchased without one before, must be murder.

and i agree with everyone else, the price usually is still pretty high. Ive been going to the same lordco guy and he gives me the max discount. I heard a long time ago there was some lowrider club account that had a wicked discount, bcit aeromotive school had a good one too from what i recall.. Looking more for one for mopac if there is any public one though  If i can dig up those account numbers ill post them up.. some people here must have worked at lordco, hook some numbers up !

Mopac does not give discounts to regular accounts. It's on a scale... if you have set up an account however only buy $500 per year then you'll be paying regular price. If your account racks up $5000/month like many of the shops that buy there, then you'll be getting wicked discounts. You have to be pushing a lot of performance products every month to be getting a discount there, which makes more sense than Lordco's whacky pricing scheme.

I used to use a friend of a friends account that had a wicked discount, but the last time I went in, he couldn't find the account at all. He ended up using some car clubs discount for me, so I didn't take a full blow on the price, but it certainly wasn't the 40% I'd been used to scamming off someone else.
On the subject of discounts, I use an acquaintance's discount at my tile store. All he does is tiling, so its a crazy big discount. When you go in, if you want to use someone's account, they call and make sure its ok. To avoid that, I just say I'm him and do my thing. I pay cash, so its fine.
So I tell her my names Peter, and this cranky old thing looks up from the desk, and she's like, "you're not Peter" Damn. Had me scrambling as I'm like, "oh, well I work with Peter...he sent me in" so she calls him and he has no idea what I'm up to and I don't know him that well, so my little run in to buy tile ended up turning into this big thing to verify who the hell I was.
Now, I try desperately to grab the cute girl that works at the desk, who doesn't give a shit who the hell I am.

keep in mind that some accounts are only to be used by card holders or ppl affliated with that specific acct.
i caught a bunch of guys using my account and i went ballistic on my sales rep and then he went off on the counter staff, so make sure you guys are actually allowed to use the accounts before randomly deciding its ok to use account x or y
