Going rate on a Sling Shot?
« on: March 25, 2010, 03:32:28 AM »
Just curious Pro Shop friends, how much are you selling your Slingshots with thumb slug and grips?  Just trying to get an idea of the price.

Includes fingertips and thumbslug.

Same price as the Freeze.

He also includes the IT at that price if your a regular customer.

Don't know if my local shops have them yet, but I imagine they would be in the $109-119 range.  Add another $15 for grips and slug.

Blank drills are $60 + $15, so if you bought online and brought it in you'd be looking at a total cost of $135-145, which is comparable to what laufaye posted.

That $110 drilled with inserts and slugs is a great price for the Freeze or the Slingshot.

My buddies shop back home sells em' for $109.95 drilled. Grips and Slug for another $20.  About $10 to $12 less than Tropical Storms and Freezes. He's had them in for 3 days and already sold 3 of them, and it's considered kind of the beginning of slow time in the shop, so this was nice to see. Customers are liking the colors.
