price increase

So now you will pay more for your PPG/FYG and PPG/XYG and PILK/FYG and PILK/XYG glass. They say they care about quality but I for one don't see it.

Re: price increase

If you want XYG than call Gary Lee at Northstar and stop paying the over priced PPG prices. I remember not even 10 years ago ppg wouldnt even stock FYG or PPG . I guess they file the glass dumping charges and then tell these guys hey we will help get the tarif dropped if you give us a special discount.Now look what happened a w/s (XYG) that you could buy 3-4 years ago from N.S. for $35-$40 is now $65-70 or more from PPG. PPG can kiss my .I wont even buy from PPG or Pilk and if you ask me I think its just a way for the big guys to price fix. Raise the prices and drive out the small mom& pop and mobile only guys.

Re: price increase

What's Gray from Northstar's number?

Re: price increase

Yes, what is his #? I have heard of the company but have never dealt with them. Where are they located?

Re: price increase

They are located in Wichita Kansas. I have known these guys since their begining. Gary Lee is the boy. His dad is the one who started Northstar. I used to buy from them, but they started a couple of retail's and will install windshields from $75.00. They have really screwed this market up. I have been in this market since Feb. 1987. Here is the phone number,
316-263-0415

Re: price increase

Oh great, they wholesale and retail. They get you coming and going.

Re: price increase

I checked with them, their pricing is no lower than PPG. Don't think so!

Re: price increase

Gee, when you see their ad in AGRR, they don't mention that they also install. Wonder why?

Re: price increase

Just like SGC, they wholesale with Service and Retail with their shops.

Re: price increase

Just can't see buying from what may be my competitior. Doesn't make much sense, IMHO
