I called Oliver last week wanting to get a set of the newer side text graphics, but they quoted $345.13 for just the two Oliver Legacy Elite II graphics, so I declined. 

It was at this cost that I reacted that a discount was in order to encourage owners to renew them when faded.

Put the new side decals on.  .......  $73.71

From $345 to $73 now that's a discount.  I want to hire you as my lead negotiator. 

There are several decals "on the side" and one on the front. I suspect the $345 quote was for a full set on three sides complete inclusive of the "Sort of Niki Swish" down the two long sides.  And the $73 was just for the decal over the storage area hatch/water heater.  Can you kindly clarify? 

If the $346 quote was for a flll set on all sides, that seems really reasonable.  Or was there a scope change for the labor to be provided?

Thanks

Just to bring everyone up to date on this running subject - 

As per my posts in this thread from October 25, 26, and 28), I'm still working on getting answers from the "houses mouth" on the current status of these decals, digital artwork, etc..

And, as I also mentioned in these posts, this investigation just may take a bit of time due to the availability of staff and other duties that they may have.

I will post when I have further information.

The $345 quote was for the 2 rear decals that has the Oliver name and the front decal on the nose.  Just the 3 decals.  They didn't quote for the big swish on the sides that you see on some trailers.

Scott called me the other day about an unrelated matter but while we were on the phone I asked him about the vinyl decals. He stated that he was not exactly sure about the cost to the customer for the front Big “O” and the two rear sides. 

There was a time that they cut all their own vinyl lettering. Because of this we could usually get whatever we wanted as far as colors etc. As most of you probably already know, the person that did all the computer work for the graphics and ran the vinyl cutting machine has left and there is nobody there now that knows how to operate any of that system. For that reason, they are farming out all their graphic work. That is probably why the price is so high.

It’s been several months since I was at the factory, but at that time back in the service department there was a huge pigeon hole type cabinet with the “O” graphics stacked inside in all different combinations of colors. There were the big ones and a smaller version that was only six inches across. I don’t know if that was new old stock. I would doubt Scott knew they were even back there. 

In additional news, for those of you that had met Jason Ballentine the service manager know now that he has left Oliver and they have a new service manager. His name is Randall Mayberry. They have a new lady (I don't recall her name)  that is working behind the desk as you enter the showroom outer office. One of the former salesmen, Jason/Justin Lindsey/Lindley (you will note that I’m terrible with names) has returned and they now have a staff of three full time sales personnel.

We recently were at Oliver, had a nice conversation with Scott, Jason Essary and Matt Duncan. We also had the opportunity to meet both of these new to Oliver folks. 

Just posting up for those who like to put a face with a name.
