G. R. and Sons / Laguna Beach, CA
Hi folks,
I shop on Samba quite a bit and have reached out several times via email and DM, to "G.R. and Sons" in Laguna Beach, Caifornia, but have never received a reply. Does anyone out there know these folks? Got their phone number by chance?
I realize their prices are nearly four times higher than current values, but I'm interested in something that is actually priced correctly.
Any help would greatly be appreciated.
thx, chris

I’ve bought several parts from them. I’ve never paid the price advertised.

Same here, Mark. He has always been open to a negotiated price.

Re: G. R. and Sons / Laguna Beach, CA
I've tried negotiating with him without success. His prices are about double what the same thing would cost from someone else, and he won't take an offer close to the actual value. The crazy thing is that some people are willing to pay his prices.

Re: G. R. and Sons / Laguna Beach, CA
I’ve tended to offer just less than half the asking price and agreed on about half. No issues and everyone was happy. Win win for both of us.
