$5 when I ordered in Aug 06. $15...WTF?
He got all my info first.....then I asked at the end of the call how much it cost. He told me $15. It didnt hit me till after I hung up.
I dont mind paying $5 for a 8 cent washer but $15 is getting a little crazy!
I e-mailed them. And told them how much I was charged; their phone stays busy!

I bought a disk last week and was also charged $15 bones plus shipping and I personally think that is insane. Whatever they got my 15 but Whipple got my 3 grand. Did a lot of research between the two blowers and Whipple comes out way on top. Check out how many Kenne Bells have self destructed do to various reasons. You never here about that happening to a whipple.
Don't tell me you payed that shit? That's absolutely rediculess!!
That's KB though...

Wow I paid $5 too last year... $15 is tough to swallow.
Their capitalists doing their best to take advantage of a group of people. Kenne Bell has always been that way. They see an influx of those things being sold at $5 and see an opportunity to make a quick $10 more since no one else makes one.
If someone has one they can send me, I'll take it over to my buddies machine shop and have a couple hundred run off in about 8 minutes. Kenne Bell is and always has been a rip off.

Thats funny! Considering I just got mine about two months ago, with shipping it came to 9 dollars and change. Whats funny is I got two. They were stapled together.

I need one to give my buddy the dimensions. I don't really have a need for one so I really don't want to spend $15 for one. If someone has one laying around, I'll take it over to the shop, put the dimensions into the CNC machine and then send it back.
i just recieved mine also for 15 which stinks but what really got me was the shipping charge of $4.23 DAMM use some sense and stick the thing in a normal envolope for 39 cents!
OMG, it's getting worse!!gunslinger said:
They probably spent like .50 on postage and kept the rest. One can only imagine how much their blowers would cost if Whipple wasn't in the picture.

If anyone has a vernier or 0-1'' micrometer laying and could measure the o.d. and thickness I would sure appreciate it. I dont think its a real precision piece just something to slow down the brute force of 80 pounds of fuel pressure hitting it.
Suprised DougH isn't hawking something like this already,he must be busy busting someone's balls in a thread somewhere......
