You're the guy who was touting the stock of this company a few months ago, right? How is it doing?

 

Aero is going to do good. They are and have gone through some restrucering of managment. Aero has just know Got New Distributor for Aero Products in Australia and New Zealand Markets,
The Marketing Effort Is Focused on Expanding Awareness of Aero Products in the New Territory Covering 9 States In The U.S. It Will Take Some Time But They Will Grow.

 

"Aero will pay muffler shops and other automotive supply outlets $10 for any uninstalled competitors product to be used toward any new Aero muffler" ????

Am I missing something here? So if I had a new "uninstalled" muffler, I only get $10 for it?? Who in their right mind would just give away and brand new muffler for $10?? I really don't see the point here, why wouldn't I just sell it for what it's worth?
I can't see anyone taking advantage of this promotion.

 

It does seem like a silly promotion. Who has new, uninstalled mufflers lying around the house? If youown a muffler shop, would you take a bunch of Flowmaster/Borla/Dynamax/Magnaflow mufflersfor whichyou paid $80-$200 each, and give them to Aero for a $10 credit?

Htgriffith won't tell us how the stock is doing, other than "Aero is going to do good." I'm guessing that means it really sucks. If we all go out and buy a few Aero mufflers, maybe the stock will improve.

 

Eff the stock, their mufflers are AWESOME !!

 

i was thinking the same thing buzzy, 10 dollars for mufflers....... you have got to be crazy. but after reading that i closed it, so maybe there was a better explination in the next paragraph.

 

It's more than they'ed get with just having the muffler sitting on the shelf collecting dust. If you had a 50-100 mufflers that haven't sold, that can add up. Plus the credit goes towards an aero muffler, so they could get a small stock of aero for nothing just for mufflers that haven't sold anyways

 

Maybe I misunderstood then. I though it was a deal for the consumer to come in and trade out his muffler not the shop to liquidate their stock.

 

This is half way through the 3rd paragraph.

Yeah, from the customer standpoint, if I boughta $200 muffler and would only got $10 for it...I say eff that.
