As many of you are aware. I have several group buys going, and I try to do several at a time to keep the shipping cost down.
I recently got some feedback that the frequency was a but obnoxious, and not really appreciated. Kind of like advertising on every other thread in the garage. I don't want be just hawking product and detracting for the genuine exchange of information that is actually pretty prevalent in the garage. Trying to find a way to do this that is less obnoxious. I'm open to suggestions. I got to thinking, that maybe I should just run a single thread on a monthly basis, or there may be a better way to do this. Any suggestions? |

QUOTE(jeeperjohn56 @ Nov 9 2014, 04:26 PM)  Mark, is your back order on your back bumper pads in yet? I need a back bumper pad.John Hold tight for a week.I'll have a group buy. No seriously, I have completed the high speed tooling, at great expense. I have 6 sets on backorder that we will complete in about a week.everyone on backorder will be getting a refund for the difference . Again another group buy. I want to start a single monthly thread, but trying to work out the practicality portion of it. I have another large really cool project that may or may not be coming online December. I don't like getting people excited about something only to have to push it back several times. But its over 12k invested, and I'd like to bring it online as soon as its ready. So if I use a single floating thread, would it get missed? I understand the majority of these responses here have been positive. I have had some members pm me with son suggestions. There is some fear of being flamed on the forum. Please do PM me if this is the case. |
