The long-awaited official Vi-FA online store has finally been launched.
This would not have been possible without your support and cooperation. We would like to express our sincere gratitude to you all.
[About the results]
At the All Japan Championship Sports Class held the other day, they used Vi-FA parts and took an impressive second place on the podium .
Team Yokomo also used it at the World Championships .
It is also expected that many athletes will be using it in the Open Class and Super Expert Class of the upcoming All Japan Championships .
[Price Information]
I'm sure there are many customers who are wondering, "Huh? Prices have gone up?"
Until now, we had been selling it at a trial monitor price, and to be honest, the price on Yahoo! Auctions had collapsed.
Of course, there were no labor costs, and the price did not even fully cover the cost of materials and other costs.
So why have they been selling it at this price until now?
There are three reasons.
①. To let people know about Vi-FA
The reasoning is that unless a brand new RC parts manufacturer gets recognized, it won't lead to sales.
②. To gather feedback on the product
Before selling the product, we not only conduct CAD simulations but also extensive field testing. We keep the price low because we want to create the "best" parts by gathering customer feedback, and this is why we collect opinions and use them to make improvements.
3. To build a track record.
The reason was that we wanted to build a track record of product sales and product functionality.
[About our online store]
There are three major features.
①. Full lineup of body mounts for major car models and major bodies
We offer a full lineup of combinations of major vehicle models and major body types that would not be possible to sell in physical stores due to the large number of items.
②. A wide range of products not available in brick-and-mortar stores
We will be offering a lineup of RC-related tools, including adjustable, fine-tuning body mounts.
(We plan to handle products that are not directly related to RC in the future.)
③. Offering products at low prices and issuing discount coupons, etc. We regularly hold sales and issue coupons.
If you need to prepare parts in advance, you can get them at a good price online.
If you break it while you're there, you can also use it to purchase it from a physical store.
*With the opening of the official online store, sales on Yahoo! Auctions will cease.
*Your Yahoo! Auctions account will remain as is, but it will no longer be related to Vi-FA.
*With the opening of our official online store, the test sales prices (below cost price) on Yahoo! Auctions will end and prices will be revised to the regular prices. We ask for your understanding and cooperation in order to continue our business and develop and provide new products.
