so glad i read this first. i was actually going to go to brookdale mitsu today and order a bunch of stuff.

just more business lost to them.

Nick is no longer there. He was who set up that discount structure.

Has anyone talked to them about keeping it going or are they just being dicks? I will have a talk with them next time I order.

Did you read the first post and the rest of this thread? They are not offering the club a 20% discount, yet if you ask about it they claim they are giving it to you.

munchgsx · 01-18-2012

Yeah, again Nick was the guy that up held that deal. I'll still ask whats going on.

Brookdale Mitsubishi is giving a discount. But its a 20% discount off of a higher list price called "matrix". Bottom line it only translate to a 5 to 10% discount off the Mitsubishi list price. Its not a very good discount. And any online place is going to be cheaper.

I know a lot of the people at Brookdale Mitsubishi and I'm still holding out hope that something can be worked out. But I also want to keep hearing about people's experiences with them.

MAP is another source for OEM parts, but I know how they get there OEM parts and I'm not sure if they'd be able to do better than the 20% off Mitsubishi list price. But maybe I'm wrong.

This sucks. Always went to Brookdale for all my OEM needs. Thing that bother me now is how the manager selects a few who he trust to get the 20% of the Mitsu list price and all of the rest who use and been doing business with them don't. My door is CLOSED. Thanks for the information Curt.

Fuck brookdale. They've been a pain in the ass the last two times I had to deal with them, the last when I needed 6 speed trans fluid for the Evo. Took them 5 days to get a jug of fluid and got no discount after asking about it/mentioning style. I would order my stuff from Don Herring in a heartbeat. I've talked to a few guys down there and they seem cool as shit.

Yes I did. After a fex texts with you it was a no brainer to call and order the parts brook dale had no idea what I wanted even with the factory part numbers.

I had originally just sent Curt a message, as I wasn't sure how much attention this thread was going to get. Since this is obviously a huge bummer for a lot of you, I thought I would post here about what I had sent to him.

I haven't posted anything about this yet, because I just started working there and am still in training. That said, I'm now working at White Bear Mitsubishi Suzuki. Understandably you guys are upset about Brookdale. I can't promise anything will come of it, but I do plan to inform our general manager, Richard (who also owns an Evo), about this situation.

I'll keep you guys updated here in this post.

**Goat Blower** · 01-19-2012

Hmm, that makes sense. I've been buying there for at least 10 years, but I kinda thought the prices seemed a little high when I bought a ton of Evo parts last spring. I've known Mark for a long time, but I haven't seen him at the counter in a long time. The new guys I don't recognize. That sucks, guess I'm shopping elsewhere as well.

I believe it was Chris who set that discount up a long time ago. When he left, Nick kept the ball rolling.

Too bad they changed the discount.

Yes, I set up the original discount at Brookdale Mitsubishi with Chris Cabe back in 2003. And up until the recent change it was always 20% off the Mitsubishi list price.

We need to switch to Nissans, I think Chris is still out at Wayzata Nissan.
