S2 Badges

[Sonic]

The new style badges are only about £20, but they dont feel half as solid as the old-skool ones we have

They wern't even £20 with VAG Parts so there was no way Pete was going to get them any cheaper.

It wasnt all that long ago when you could get them for £10 from GPC.

pete : dont forget who started this

40 sheets for an original badge... Not for me I'm afraid. No offense Pete, but clearly the cost you are sourcing them from Audi is a bit outrageous.

[s2avant]

Back when they were available they were £30 from Audi. They've been obsolete since 2005 so it's not surprising that whoever has stockpiled them in Germany wants good money for them. I'm surprised the price isn't higher. At the end of the day they are metal badges as opposed to the plastic ones used on all other models and AFIAK you can't get them from anywhere else.

Frankly I am quite happy with 40 quid too baring in mind they were £30.

Pete is planning on ordering these on Monday, so if you want one get in touch quick!

So at the next concours event - will there be someone with a magnet on hand to certify the originality of all the S2 badges ?

Suppose thats supply and demand for you...

So why don't you source these items for members then, at least Pete's trying. He's running a business not a charity for tight arses.

I think Paul was having a go at Audi`s prices, not Pete`s!

Oh yeah - thanks for that positive comment there.

1. I wasn't having a go at Pete - its the cost he gets them from Germany I was a bit shocked by.

2. I couldn't care less if my badges are plastic or metal - metal 'OEM' is more appealing to certain kinds of people I suppose, but I'd sooner spend 40 quid on something more meaningful.

3. I do enough for this forum already... You would have to buy me a helluva lot of S2 badges to pay back what I've put into this place so let's not go there
