Why don’t Royal Purple product prices rise and fall with gasoline prices?
First, a substantive factor in the cost of our lubricants is the cost of the proprietary additives we use. It’s these additives that give our products their performance advantages. The additives are in no way connected to the price of crude oil. Second, crude oil is used to make gasoline and mineral based lubricants. Our lubricants are formulated using synthetic base stock that is not a component of gasoline. I went to the listed retailer on the website and they do not inventory your products and will not order a case for me. You may want to call other retailers in your area that are more customer friendly and who want to earn your business. If you are willing to order products online, a number of ‘e-tailers’ such as www.summitracing.com sell our products in quart quantities.
