Because the customer doesn't know what they truly want? 
It's the same line between PD's answers being accurate as well, but they are surface answers, and aren't really addressing the true reason for why those answers are true in the first place.
Calling us individually would take alot of calls before you got around to someone who can give you an accurate answer. And if you just stopped at the first customer, you would be screwed. But if you called them all, you would be confused. Does that make sense?

I fail to see the distinction on that one and I rarely refuse to call back or reply via PM/e-mail (in case that is a concern, too, for some).
I try not to make people feel uncomfortable for simply inquiring about things. Hell, I get dozens of e-mails from people needing tech answers (including shops across the country who are not RX-8 specialists) and I like the personal contact and learning about those whom I seek to serve/help.
Of all the dynamics I have recognized in this industry, what we are now discussing was one thing I could not figure out.... so, thanks for the conversation on it.
I guess the next question is "Why does a vendor ask about this stuff in one of his own threads when he can simply call his customers, individually, and get many of the same answers?"

Anyone should absolutely feel comfortable contacting you directly and expect a warm and thorough response.
No BS or *** kissing here. 5 stars on your customer service.

I assume all vendors are helpless, greedy, and imply friendliness in order to make a sale. Seldom have I ever met one which displays genuine customer service.
You Jerks are just forcing the cash out of my wallet!

While we are trading good-natured insults; tell that midget **** who thinks he is your boyfriend I said 
and that WeeMan is looking for a "partner".
Seriously, though, when is James going to bring you to AZ to meet the BHR crew? He had a LOT of fun last year when he visited. Couple times, actually.......

and I prefer the term "Travel Sized".. kthnx
We are shooting for sometime in the beginning part of the new year... but with my giant life change and uprooting of my life, things right now are still settling... including my finances..

Well, let us first start off with the frying pan. My guess is scrambled eggs. Why? Because the time is 6:57 am. Well it could be PM, but where's the sun peeking through the blinds? Also, you can tell it's early in the morning by how Ray is slumped over, putting weight on his hip to keep it up. Also, he is wearing casual clothes, clothes you would just throw on to make breakfast.
Also you can see the coffe pot going in the background. Definitely oatmeal in the pot.

Installed the midpipe w/CAT last night. It was raining so I did not get to push it that much but it sounds great! Has a bit of a lower aggressive tone. The pipe is banging on some metal below so I need look into that to see what is going on. The hanger is in the rubber exhaust hanger as well.
