360
I recently tried to find this product locally. No luck. I wrote to Sta-Bil on the 22nd....
Well, your advertising is pretty good...got my attention and interest. Just bought an '88 XXXX, and wanted to run a bottle of this with my first fill-up. Unfortunately, after calling all around XXX and XXX, MI (Meijers, Mazza Auto Parts, Advance Auto Parts, AutoZone, O'Reilly's Auto Parts), no one is stocking this item.
Is this product in production yet? And available in stores? Not much on mail ordering products I should be able to buy from a local retailer.
....to which they replied today....
Dave,
Thank you for your question. Since STA-BIL®360 is a brand new product, it will take a little bit of time for it to get placed on shelves throughout the country at all major retailers. However, EVERY Advance Auto Parts does carry STA-BIL® 360 Protection. Currently, only half of AutoZone stores are carrying STA-BIL 360 and I believe it is only available through special ordering at O'Reilly Auto Parts. Walmart started rolling it out throughout the country starting in the North East, so it might take some time to reach all stores.
Would you mind providing me the location of the Advance Auto Parts location you visited? All AAP should have this product available to purchase. I will have a field rep contact your local store to make sure they are in-fact carrying STA-BIL 360.
Thank you,
Molly Ryba
So, at least the company DOES have it in production (unscrupulous companies have been known to advertise a product before introducing it...to gauge market response PRIOR to gearing up for production...advertising a product they do not currently make, and may never make), and was very responsive to my question, and offered to have a company rep. follow up to make sure it is in the stores it's supposed to be in.
Lets home the product is as good as the customer service.
