Apex Brake Lines Group Buy

[Asspire]

See here: http://www.ninjette.org/forums/showthread.php?t=137485

Was talking to Raymond about doing a group buy for SS lines and he's interested in setting something up. I want to see how many are interested in getting lines and what prices he can do. Just keep in mind its my first time setting something like this up, so let me know if I'm forgetting anything. I'm hoping we can get at least 10 people in on this.

Heres how many we have so far:

Group Buy has ended. I will collect paypal info from those who commit and forward it to Raymond, who will send out invoices. Buyers will have 1 week after receiving invoice to pay. Once everyone who has committed pays, it will take him approximately 48 hours to package and ship orders. Depending on how things go, we should start shipping out lines by July 22 (it may be sooner, depending on how fast we get info transferred and payments).

Shipping to canada and usa will be $12.95 all other countries would be $19.00.

Pricing will be $45.00/set for 10 paid buyers and $40/set if we have 20 or more paid buyers.

It comes with banjo bolts and crush washers. Black or Silver Fittings
5 color to choose from: Clear ( Silver), Black, Red, Blue or Green.

Buyer in Canada have to pay tax, USA and other country no tax.
For more than one set, If it is being shipped to the same address, each additional set is $5.00 shipping ( shipping based on weight and dimension of the box).

For just the rear line it will be $27.50 + $10.00 shipping

He will accept Paypal and money orders.

Raymond is going to send me a picture of the colors available. I think 20 buyers is doable.

The banjos or any other fittings can come in black.

the lines themselves come in red/black/clear (basically silver) and blue

That's pretty good pricing. I'm in for sure now. If someone buys two sets, does that count towards the number of buyers, or does that still only count as one?

[Aggrotech]

makes me a sad panda.

All i needed to do was wait 1 extra day to order them lol

Just curious. Isn't the ~$58 total w/ shipping about the same as w/out the group buy?

49.99 +14.99 shipping is the original price, is like $7 of saving, not bad imo, what you expected 50% off?

Yes.
