Barry Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 Just wanted to put the word out that we have a new Online Shopping Store in the works! It will be hosted on the BMT Server and will have a ton of great features including instant order totals complete with calculated freight!! It will have the entire B-Model Store, the new R-Model Store plus the complete line of Steel Shield products and much more! There will even be categories for common truck related items, Mack Novelties and mobile electronics! The new store will supersede the BMT Store and the wattsmack.com B-Model page. We are excited to offer 24-7 online ordering but we are also committed to be on he other end of the phone when you need person to person service! We just want to offer the online ordering option, plus the new store will have more product information and better item photos.Let me know what you think...I'll post the link soon! I don't wanna give too much away before it is done!

farmer52 Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 Barry,Nice work! How about including the appropriate Mack part number for the part? Or did I miss it?

Barry Posted April 18, 2009 Author Share Posted April 18, 2009 Barry,Nice work! How about including the appropriate Mack part number for the part? Or did I miss it?That's a touchy subject. Being that we did all the part number research and web work, we don't really want to list part numbers to make it easy for other vendors to under sale our hard work. Let them do their own work! LOL You guys know that Watt's is more than happy to help you out with all your projects, but we honestly have to sell parts to keep it up. No company can offer this kind of support without sales coming in. Even if another company were to under cut pricing by a few dollars, we hope that our service is valuable enough to you to earn your business regardless. With that said...only four more free t-shirts to go! (No minimum order, you just need to place an order on our new system so we can make sure everything is working properly!)

We still welcome your phone calls! The site just provides another option for everyone! If you would like a hard copy of the catalog...there is a Printed Catalog link on the order site. But I would wait to print until we finish uploading all the photos. The catalog will be around 60 pages printed! You can view it at anytime online by clicking the link.Printable Catalog/Pricelist Quote Barry - Watt's Truck Center Parts Manager and BMT Webmaster...1-888-304-MACK Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/8968-big-news-online-store-is-coming/#findComment-34095 Share on other sites More sharing options...
