    Sportbike Track Gear We sell some motorcycle stuff sometimes

    In the past year we have seen a marked increase in bat shit crazy product returns. The most common one being "I dident realize the bike dident come with the product" (this is a copy and paste form the return request, my spelling is not even close to that bad). Being a proactive dude I decided to update the listings for the products we have seen this issue reoccur. I started with a little photoshop work on the product image...
    [​IMG]
    then I added a little note to the product description...

    THIS LISTING IS FOR AN EXHAUST SYSTEM ONLY, YOU DON'T GET THE WHOLE FUCKING MOTORCYCLE!

    I think we may need to shoot a video as well.

    There are some truly stupid people in this world.

    About 10 years ago, I was dealing with someone who is a well known fast WERA racer, to trade my 03 Chev dually for his gsxr1000. He wanted ~$7-8k for the bike and was open to trades, thusly me offering my truck for his bike and ~$7k. Through multiple emails, he was under the impression that I was going to trade him my truck AND pay him $7k, for his $7k motorcycle.....

    I'd love to say change the return policy and have a restock fee at STG's discretion , but I know the hassle free no restock fee helps drive business. Its a double edge sword.

    You should also occasionally only sell the box. Like people on Ebay selling an empty box for xbox 1 etc....

    For sale- 1 empty box for a sweet Kerker Supertrapp Exhaust for a 1984 KZ1000.
    THIS IS AN EMPTY NOS BOX!!!!!

    Youd still get morons thinking it's an exhaust....

    Our customer base has a very low percentage of snow flakes. To be fair we do not have an avalanche of stupid to manage day in and day out. With that said I would love to spend a day in Revzilla's customer service department.

    Lol. These stupid people create benefits for others though, in some cases. Like calling a plumber because the faucet handle is loose. Lots of money can be made but, lost also, as in STG's case.
