TWM has a short shifter available now... I was flipping through a Scion mag and apparently TRD has a short shifter available soon? Who knows... don't see it listed on the TRD site tho.

jesus christ. they did.

first they cancel their vendor orders, then jack up the prices?

i paid 135 for mine.

great products, but they don't have a clue about how to do business.

I'm just going to wait for that. The B&M one will probably be better anyway... you can't argue with a name like B&M.

i can convert your stock shifter into a short shifter for $60. Local customers preferred, unless you want to ship your shifter to me.

Creative Compacts is having one made just like the TWM one and will be out in February for about 1/2 the price.

OMG I can't believe they'd do something like that, I was surfing another forum and someone mentioned they'd been raised, but noone confirmed it, and I never saw anything on their site saying how it was a "special" price or on Sale, and they just go and price gouge like that, then cut out their distributors so you can ONLY buy from them....

I went to their site about an hour ago to buy a short shifter and **** and saw that they wanted almost $300 w/shipping for a friggin short shifter and **** - they just lost one sale from me

and even if TWM dropped their price to $50 for the shifter and **** I still don't think I'd buy it after that stunt they pulled.... sorry, but I'm sure everyone will say along with me doing something like that is NOT how you do business.... Looks like I'll just wait for the competition. Shame on you TWM - Kudos on losing customers

Ya that is REDICULOUS. I believe Creative Compacts will be offereing it for around $70...Don't quote me, but around that and it will be the SAME design.
