JoeFromPA Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 Hi all, Sold the Leggy but still have $500 (!) in Subaru Bucks. They seem to be non transferrable so I was interested in getting peoples takes. Here on my options as far as I'm concerned: 1. Use it at FredBeans to pick-up like $500 in generic stuff like redline gear and trans fluids, power steering fluids, oils to use in my other cars (I could easily use $300-400 like this, if not more). 2. Sell them on here - not sure how someone else would use them. 3. Buy a desirable ~$500 product at fred beans and then sell it on here for like $350? Thoughts welcome!

BAC5.2 Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 FBP sells lots of parts. See if they will let you use them to buy something for your Civic.

Moderators BarManBean Posted February 21, 2013 Moderators Share Posted February 21, 2013 Find out what parts people want. Give them a discount and buy the part for them after receiving paypal payment.

12sechatch Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 3. Buy a desirable ~$500 product at fred beans and then sell it on here for like $350? Do this. I would happily send you money to purchase me one or 5 items from your local dealer/FBP. Let me know your Paypal.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BAC5.2 Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 Civic is gone....now have a 01 BMW M5 in the garage and a '08 BMW 535xi wagon. Well. Those are downgrades from an LGT and a Civic SI. Id just stock up on fluids and maintenance items.

TheBlackPearl Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 Subaru bucks are not to be sold on lgt.com per the sticky. If it were me, I'd do what BMB said or stock up on fluids for yourself. Self proclaimed PNW Craiglist find of the day Champion, April 2014.

supraru Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Not sure what your plans are for your car but I'd see if your Subaru bucks can transfer over to their parts wearhouse. You can buy anything aftermarket for yourself then. http://www.fredbeansparts.com/subaru-performance-parts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators BarManBean Posted February 22, 2013 Moderators Share Posted February 22, 2013 Whatever you do, don't buy fluids with the plan to resell them--that's silly, too expensive to ship. Buy the smallest, most expensive parts you can "Bullet-proof" your OEM TMIC! <<Buy your kit here>> Not currently in stock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeFromPA Posted February 22, 2013 Author Share Posted February 22, 2013 Who wants $50 billet oil caps? I got 10! (just kidding people) Ok, I'm actually going to contact FB and see if they can get me a Cobb Accessport for my wife's 535xi....gives about 80 crank hp and 100 crank torque.... If so, I think we found ourselves a winner ... If not, I'll consider helping a member out by getting maybe a $300-400 part and selling to them at a discount, and then using the remainder on redline fluids.

DeltaSniper Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 If you are planning to buy stuff and sell it, I sure as hell wouldnt mind doing business with you for a 2010+ Legacy Short Shifter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
12sechatch Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 you can contact FB online and submit your bucks. You then mail the bucks to them. Once they see they are real, they will give you a coupon code as "credit" to their store. Then you sell that coupon code to me for $350. Done. This is all listed on their site on the subaru bucks page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoozeRS05 Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 I'd take a set of WRX MT pedals.. EB's Subaru journal - 2005 LegacyGT Wagon & 2014 Forester FB25 (2008 specB - RIP) IG@legacygtliving Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeFromPA Posted February 25, 2013 Author Share Posted February 25, 2013 Gonna contact FB offline and see their thoughts on this. If they are good with it (giving the coupon away) I'll contact you. Until then, I remain open to offers exceeding $350 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
