Foo - Performance/Nashbar/Supergo Conglomerate

When I was placing an order w/ Nashbar tonight, the telephone order clerk, said that all 3 companies work out of the same call center under the same owner. This was news to me. She said that they would all continue to remain independent, however.

I noticed a common address too.

Makes sense seeing as how all of their catalogs feature nearly the same stuff. Until now I figured they sourced the same cheap parts and tools... now I know the difference between Nashbar and Performance is the color red & blue and about %20 price. ;-) Don't me wrong, I buy a ton of stuff from Nashbar - mostly when they have sales and the like. I bought one of their little tool kits for $34.95 - deal of the century.

Nashbar and Performance joined up a few years back. Now I get to pay sales tax at both places :( Not sure whan supergo joined in though...

If you are a Team Performance member and Nashbar or Supergo have the same stuff but cheaper, Performance will price match it. You still get your free shipping upgrade and 10% TP points. Great deal.

Performance matches prices for anybody, but of course if your not a member you don't get the shipping upgrade. If you are lucky enough to have a Performance store in your area they will match prices as well even off the web.
