i12gofast Posted March 3, 2005 Report Posted March 3, 2005 I dealt with them a few times. Mostly overpriced but I can get any OEM part from them cheaper than i can get it at my local dealer. they have great exploded views and all the part numbers. Unfortunately their webiste isnt the most secure and someone ripped my CC info and ran up some charges ....so deal with them over the phone if you have that option. Quote
Justintoxicated Posted March 5, 2005 Report Posted March 5, 2005 (edited) Everyone says they are overpriced, but I find them to be the same price and sometimes cheaper than RMATV with a small discount. So whats the deal? Who do you guys recomend purchasing from? that is cheaper than Alba and RMATV? They have pretty standard pricing asfar as I have sceen. All the local shops are even more expensive than ALBA. I would have sold you my nickle plated Fattys wih the mounting hardware and silencers for $350 though! Need some Shearers myself. if you get the lock icon when ordering it is as cecurre as any website that uses encryption standards, if you had adware of trojans on your PC that would allow someone to jack your Credit Card numbers though.

sandornothing Posted March 5, 2005 Report Posted March 5, 2005 There mark up is generally 10% on everything......and they know it. If you go into the store and just "shoot the shit" to the parts guys, theyre pretty cool, they'll cut you a "awsome 10% deal" and get you down to par pricing. But i guess that doesnt help with you out of town guys. Here is a tip, sign up with the American Sand Association (make a donation towards keeping our dunes open). ASA will send you a newsletter with some good crapper reading material and on the back of that newsletter is a list of about 50 businesses that will give you a discount for being a member.....Alba is one of them 10% off. Cheers! Quote

Banshee_LE Posted March 9, 2005 Report Posted March 9, 2005 Well I ordered the FMF pipe set from them. Got the pipes alright but 2 right side. Had to send back one pipe but they send a whole set. So I ended up having an extra pipe! Quote

mrandersontheone Posted March 10, 2005 Author Report Posted March 10, 2005 Now that's funny 336992[/snapback] Hey Banshee_Le......How much did you pay for the pipes if you don't mind me asking? I paid 469 and after i recieved them i checked out the website and they changed them to 569. I guess i got them just in time. I am talking about the whole kit:pipes, silencers, jet kit, proflow adapter, and k&n. Thats what you got right? Quote
Banshee_LE Posted March 12, 2005 Report Posted March 12, 2005 (edited) Yeah i got the whole set I paid 469$ but that was almost 2 years a go, and i had an extra pipe hehe Edited March 12, 2005 by Banshee_LE Quote
Rare Scottish Tree Badger Posted March 20, 2005 Report Posted March 20, 2005 Rick the owner of Alba??? I don't think so. The owner is Cory Hove. I don't even know anyone named Rick at Alba. 335331[/snapback] I was told Cory aswell. .... I won a seat on eBay (to replace my stolen one), and the guy says it used to belong to Cory that owns Alba. BTW, he didn't say that in the listing to get more $'s, he told me afterwards. So I've no reason to disbelieve him. It's taking big air as I write! Shipped on Thursday and it's on it's way to Scotland. Rare. Quote
