oh, here we go... lol

Ok, I've already talked with Autolifters. There were only willing to discount 200 each for 5 lifts.
Regarding chinese made, yes, I'd love to buy the American made version, but not if the price difference is unwarranted.
Now after looking at some of these cheaper Chinese lifts and comparing them to their American made equivlent. The differnce in the quality in the welds was most concerning.
The American welds were far superior to the Chinese welds.

I do have high hopes for All Star Lifts in Cleburne, TX. They were formerly Team-Lift and are American made. We're heading over there this Thursday afternoon to inspect both their lifts and American Automotive Equipment (which I think are Chinese made).

BTW, we already have 13 people in this group buy.
