When they run sales like this, yes it can be cheaper to buy from them, but otherwise Amazon is usually cheaper. For example,

https://www.amazon.com/Sonax-230500-.../dp/B00BDOCWMQ

on Amazon it is regularly $75.67. Over $14 less than on the PBMG sister sites. Amazon prime does free shipping though. With this product on PBMG if this is all you are buying your order is under $75 and you either pay for shipping or need to buy something else so potentially with shipping this might be about the same price even with the 25% off.

I do appreciate their youtube videos, forums, etc., but just buying from their site blindly will unfortunately lead to paying a pretty significant markup.
Not sure if you noticed that autogeek is 99 with 20% right now as I almost bought it but decided to ck autopia and was surprised was 89 with the 25%. Unfortunately I had to pay tax being a Florida resident.

Amazon would be less if Autopia didn't have the 25 off with free shipping, that is correct. I always compare Amazon to the other retail places.
