Rigid industries group buy

Ok...like the title states, this is more or less a feeler thread. For those of you that already know me, I have a shop located in Chantilly, Va (NoVa), about 25 miles west of DC (Auto Repair Chantilly VA | Custom Tires | Wheel Center | Lift Kit). I have just set up my shop to be a distributor for RigInd. With the growing number of people here with a Gobi or Baja etc...I understand there is an interest in these awesome lights. They have a protected MAP pricing schedule that prevents me from listing specific pricing. So, here are my thoughts.

Because there are a number of options, specs, sizes, colors, etc...what do you guys think would be worth our while?
Buy a 30,40 or 50" and get a pair of "duallys" for free?
Buy 3- 6" and get one free?
Set a general discount of off retail? or specifics such as $15off 6", $20 off 10", $30 off 20", etc.
I am also willing to entertain some specific "deals", but can't commit the time to give everyone a specific quote. IE "I want 2x 6", and a 10" SR series, how much would that be?"
So I would really need a couple or several "kits" put together.

The process would be very time consuming for me and the shop because I know there are so many different ways to go about this. I would probably drop ship them directly from RigInd. General wait times for lights to show up at your door would probably be 3-4wks. I would also need enough people to commit to a purchase.

I am posting this in the 5th gen to get a feeler. Once I get something narrowed down, I'll post in the general section.
I hope I am not breaking any rules here as I am not a specific vendor, but I don't recall coming accross any RigInd distributors on this forum. And if I need to become a vendor, I will go through any of the red tape that is required. I am merely trying to set this up for my friends here on the forum.

Any input would be great!

New style as in SR single row?

The SR's are the newer style and newer technology. They are getting 3200 lumens per 10 inch section from the 3 watt single row compared to the 3950 lumens out of the double row E-series. 10 bulbs and almost the same output as 20 with using less power and about half the surface area in the airstream.

The newest LED bars from the other two big players in LED lighting, Vision X and BajaDesigns are also single row designs using the newest Cree LED's bulbs . But it's not only the bulbs as reflector technology is advancing and has alot to do with it.

It's funny how Vision X went with the 10 watt single row,BajaDesigns went with 5 watt single row and Rigid went with 3 watt single row. Vision X just released their own 3 watt single row and Rigid is supposed to have their "Paramount" series with 5 watt single row coming out.

LED lighting technology is growing almost as fast as......... the speed of light. I predict in 10 years LED's will rule the lighting industry.
 
I'd be interested - depending on the price. I'm mostly interested in getting 4 6".
On a side note, anyone run d2's up front? Does it look weird? Not enough lumens?
 
So far, it looks like the guys that are interested in the 40" E series will get a PAIR if duallys.
The guys that want 4 of the 6" E series can probably have the same deal (get a pair of duallys for free).
I can also probably get some light covers thrown in also (black, clear, amber, blue, etc.)

I appreciate the feedback so far, let's keep em coming. Any more suggestions would be great (for what kind of deals would be worthwhile).

I was approached by the guys at Vision X and was not overly impressed with the quality. Not that they're bad lights, just the rep wasn't a very good salesman. He brought in a stand for me to use and the lights just "feel" cheap. I have experience with the RidInd and the quality "feel" is there. No experience with Baja's.
Vision X's rep also told me that it was almost like a franchise of some sort. He was the "rep" for this area and sold it himself. There were no distributors in the area.
 
I would potentially be interested in the new SR series (think the 40'' could mount directly below the wind deflector on my Bajarack), but I am trying to set aside some $ for another hobby (new mountain bike!).
 
I need (2) 6" amber and (4) 6" standard. All E-series. The others got sent back since I like the look of the 6" better.
 
Here's what I've heard so far...

Kingpin- 40" SR or E with FREE pair of duallys
adio-qty4 6" SR with FREE pair of duallys?
azn-sensation 40" with FREE pair of duallys
iFly-qty4 6" SR or E with FREE pair of duallys
joneseyy-mtn bike
Jay Rob- qty4 6" E white qty2 6" E amber with FREE pair of duallys
Gmo-qty2 6" E amber with FREE single dually

Do the aforementioned people think this will be a good deal?
I imagine most of us are going to use the duallys for back up lamps.

For those of you that don't want/need a big light bar, I can probably work something else out.

Again, thanks for all the input. I'd love to get these deals rolling soon. I may post something in the general thread for specifics similar to the ones above. I just don't want to get hit with too many..."how much for this?" questions.
 
I'd love the 3 6" light bars and the 4th one free deal and maybe buy one dually get one half off?

I want some rear floods/worklight... will the duallys be good for that?

Thanks Ducmonsta!

If 4 6inch sr's would fit on the front of the gobi rack I would be into that with the free Dually's for the back.
