So apart from the deposit does it work the same way it did before? meaning he will send us paypal invoices after for the remaining amount. do we just use the forum to keep track of how many people are in?

However, Jared, please find out, regarding the deposit, if you are unsuccessful in getting 5 people if the deposit is refunded. While I understand that people sometimes bug out of group buys, as the previous group buy guy did, I'm not convinced that a deposit is necessary. Was this something Matt requires, or was this your idea?

So the low down on the deposit is that matt will contact us after our close date for the remaining balance. Yes the forum is to keep track of how many people are in it. Matt will email me a list of people every day or 2 and ill post here. P.S. add me to the list |

I already have a kit, so for me the decision is purely financial, but I will say that if there are exactly 9 buyers, then I will be #10 just to get the better price for everyone.

Well...I"m broke
I don't wanna miss a the deal but money is a little tight. I should just focus on getting my engine in one piece. My parts get here tomorrow. If things change before the 31st, you guys will be the first to know. That's really cool of you. |

My understanding is that the GB coordinator @thejaredhuang will notify Matt of @ecotrons and he will send everyone a paypal invoice for the difference. The GB will go until March 31, 2013 and may end early if 10 people sign up sooner.

Dang we're no doing so hot right now, I figured we'd be at least at five people. Oh yeah I looked at a little bit of it. I'll probably watch it like ten times while I'm waiting for my kit to get here, if we can get two more people added to the GB that is. ADVERTISE MORE.

For some weird reason the three people vanished from the list in the first post. I put them back. I guess this is some kind of anomaly due to the server move.

Ugh not a single person has signed up since I have. Oh well, it's only $120 more. Its kind of annoying since I could have had it installed during spring break since there are no classes. Bummer

Anyhow, these people from the previous group buy attempt have not responded as to whether they would still be interested. Maybe you could PM them and see if they are still interested. @airjeir @fizzer914 @NinjaVanish @mgithens @ninjazeus @redsuns03 @triptronix @rabies @Dark Wolf @GroundPilot @bengry @shiftyninja

Matt said one more added a deposit quietly, probably a lurker like me
We're up to 4. FYI if more people are lurkers and want to get in you can pay for the deposit @ Ecotrons and then Matt will tell me to add someone to the list. I think @n4mwd and I were just using this thread as a way to keep track of how many were in the GB. |

So with the lurker we have 5?? Or are we still lacking... I'm not in a super rush, so I can wait if we want to... Up to the group, I guess.

Not sure, but it supposed to run till the end of the month. We are only half way there. If we have 5 in the first half of the month, then it stands to reason that we might get 5 more in the 2nd half.

OK, so we only need 4 more to get the 10 price. Remember that I said I would be #10 if we got 9.
I added Anonymous guy to the list.

This week. I was just about to buy the kit full price in hope that I could myself plenty of time during break, but then I saw this thread, so I thought it was worth the wait to get a good deal. Thank god we met the minimum. Just another week to go.

If you do it like I did in the video, you can do the bulk of the install on the kitchen table in your spare time, then finish bolting it to the bike on the weekend. That way your bike is out of service for the least amount of time. You can then do other things during spring break.

I have not done that. But as long as those forums don't mind, I don't see why not. Ask the mods on those sites if its OK.
I would think that all you need to do is post something simple like "Ninja 250 EFI Kit Group Buy" and a direct link to this thread.

You might want to update it and mention that we already have 5 so the price is guaranteed to be only $500 shipped or less if we get 4 more buyers.
