I’m starting a new thread for this as things have evolved from my first test batch of pulleys in this thread here:
Anyways, you can see that I’ve sold quite a few kits with positive feedback. I am offering the kit as well as the individual pulleys. Pricing is as follows:
$40 USD for the Complete Kit shipped to USA and Canada
36T Drive Wheel Pulley designed for Flywheel Style Longboard Wheels
15T Motor Pulley with 8mm bore for motor shaft, Four Set Screws, and keyway for maximum security
Retainer/washer for bolts
255mm long belt
265mm long belt
x6 M6 Allen Head Screws
$15 USD for a Motor Pulley shipped to USA and Canada
8mm bore for motor shaft, Four Set Screws, and keyway
$28 USD for a 36T Drive Wheel Pulley shipped to USA and Canada
includes retainer and bolts
Shipped via regular post (i.e. no tracking as it’s coming from Canada and tracking is too expensive for such a small item). Payment must be sent via friends and family. Send me a PM if you’re interested.
PM me for pricing if you want multiple items. Also PM me for international shipping.
I don’t want to sound rude either, but it actually pisses me off that you made that comment. He has been selling these for a while and i havnt seen anyone complain about not receiving the parts, poor quality, or anything else. There is no reason a moderator should say that their going to close a thread all because someone is reslling a product.
Well…this a fun morning for me to find this thread has exploded into something negative. @lox897@marcus@Maxid for your information, I was the one who brought the 15mm kits to market. That eBay seller has STOLEN my product photos, my write up of the product description and is undercutting me. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS SELLER IF YOU HAVE ANY INTEREST IN SUPPORTING PEOPLE WHO FURTHER THE DIY ESK8 COMMUNITY. As I said, they have STOLEN my photos, so who knows if you will get the same product or something of comparable quality.
I PAID for the DEVELOPMENT of this product, determined the specifications, got prototypes made, revised specs, got more prototypes made. It took me 6 MONTHS from when I first saw the need to have affordable 15mm kits to when I actually started selling them back in January in this thread:
I have great reviews from everyone. I sold the products at a slightly lower cost to have some market penetration and get thing started. Just when I’m starting to turn the corner and make this worth my investment of time and money, this comes along…I’m just a guy trying to add some value to the community here and get paid fairly. Believe me, I’m not getting rich on this.
ALSO my product ships from Vancouver, Canada. Delivery time is generally 1-2 weeks, so you get your product a lot faster than overseas which sometimes takes months.
I truly hope @lox897 will do something about removing this negative chatter from my thread. This is exactly how you STOP INNOVATION and discourage use of this forum. Encouraging people on here to buy from supplier who has copied and undercut me…I expected a lot better from this forum to be honest. I don’t have the volume or resources to order such large quantities and provide such low prices and have paid for the R&D as well. Definitely NOT COOL.
By the way, just so you guys know, I also have been selling this product on eBay since January. But have been selling it on here CHEAPER ON PURPOSE to support people who are part of the DIY community…so yeah…
I had sold prototypes to some friends prior to that in January. So to set the record straight AGAIN, they COPIED MY PHOTOS. They were taken on my Canon G11 on my kitchen table FYI.
It is obvious that they stole your photos. Who are they to undermine you. Keep up the good work! I was even planning to buy a set from you for my first DIY, and i might just do it!
@Bensaida@Guacamoleface Thanks for the support guys. Yeah it’s pretty brutal. I guess lesson learned, watermark those photos…Still it is pretty lame that they have the resources to buy in much larger quantities and undercut me and can’t even take their own frickin photos.
This kit is of EXCELLENT quality, and I received in 3-4 days.
As a Canadian, I was much happier to buy from @johnny_261 than from Chinese sellers. Whenever I buy stuff from China, it can take anywhere from three weeks to eight months to arrive. I literally just got something in the mail today that I ordered from China in December. Absolutely ridiculous.
Sorry to hear that the Chinese sellers are ripping off your photos.
