and we know just as much as when it started.

Is this run by our government?

Wow, almost an entire day has passed and very little traffic... The anticipation is almost too much!

[Mike Phillips]

I know this can be hard to understand, especially since Meguiar’s is actually a small company in comparison to other companies, but there is a lot of paperwork, bean counting, logistics, and actually planning involved in order to set this deal up, not just for one time, but as an ongoing special for members of Meguiar's Online.

The planning part is the warehouse will need to know how many kits to build? I'm better at removing a scratch and restoring a show car shine to someone's car, not guessing how many will be sold.

I have to do some paper work on my end, and then turn my results back over to management for approval. I'll turn in the paperwork tomorrow, but the person I'm turning it over to will not receive it until Monday.

So... I apologize for the wait, but I should be able to post the deals next week.

I am so sorry it has taken so long, when I first posted this, I never knew what was involved, I thought it would be simple and easy. Please bare with me...

Your humble forum friend...

Well it sounded easy enough when you posted it. No big deal on the wait. I just hope the big guys in charge don't give you hard time about it. I also hope they can realize the concept of giving a great deal now with a small loss and in return, get a big gain in the future from the faithful folks who will continue to buy exclusivly Meguiar's products (Customer for Life Concept).

how 'bout post a poll...

Wooohoooo an update! Is it bad I'm starting to "live" for the updates?

Mike, honestly, there is no need for you to apologize. I think we're all appreciative of the opportunity to be part of a special deal. I'm amazed that it has come together so quickly since you're first post. Without going into a great deal of detail, I've been part of analysis, pricing, and product roll out and it takes an enormous amount of time.

All in all, keep up the great work, the great forum, and I'll be looking forward to next week!

Likewise, if it helps with your paperwork, I'm certainly in for what I'm guessing is the "PC and products", and maybe the "premium" package depending on price and contents.

Thanks again!

We are with you Mike, we're hanging in. I'm sure it will be a great deal for us members and worth a small wait.

We know you didn't have to do anything like this at all ----

Thanks for thinking of us.

Hey Mike,
If the higher ups have any doubts about the interest in this, just show them this thread. Seriously though, if they question the validity of your plan, we can always start an email or snail mail campaign. Thanks for looking out for us!

Good Idea

You could call it the "ULTIMATE DETAILING KIT"



The kit should have enough supplies, materials and instructions to complete a first class detailing job on your vehicle.(INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR)

The price should be fair and the shipping free.

[Beercan31]

ok Here a Little HELP how about asking the members If they would "preorder" then the warehouse will know exactly how many kits to assemble and how well the members except this "new deal", you would have a cash advance to get the project off the ground. Then you can add 8-10 % on that for stragglers but that is where the guessing game comes in to effect..

But I did not say this.

Ps, come on man give us something to dream about.

[Slats]

Some of you guys need to settle down! I too am surprised how long this deal has taken, but there's no need to have "another sleepless night" over it...Good greif people!

Mike is trying to do something really nice for us, so lets try to at least show him some respect and have a little patience in return. Go wash your cars or something!

Slats is right. Besides, it snowed yesterday. I need to brush the snow off my car before going to work this morning. I think this was old man winter's last fling. I am dreaming of my shiny spider webless car.
