My last update.
I contacted Neil. He is certain the tunacan will fit in a small flat rate box. If you paid too much, I will reimbuse you for the difference. This is the current pricing. Tunacan $56.17 Tacoplate $39.73 Tunacan cover $28.77 Shipping/insurance across pond = $3.43 per unit. US shipping looks to be a small flat rate box $6.80 Paypal to 7394teen@gmail.com. I am placing this order tommorrow 7/6/2016 @ 12:00 edst. Thanks for your patience Carlos I have contacted each person who PMed or posted to this date. If I missed you I apologize, please PM me. I realized that with the brexit vote, the exchange had a chance to turn to our favor. Waiting saved 8%. This is the current pricing with todays exchamge $1.37=1 GBP I am at 13 of each piece. I do't think it will be possible to reach the next discount level, which would required 25/unit. Tunacan $56.17 Tacoplate $39.73 Tunacan cover $28.77 Shipping/insurance across pond = $3.43 per unit. My zip is 19111. You can I expect a med flate rate box is required if you order a tunacan, otherwise a small flat rate will work. It is easier for you to calc your own US shipping. PM me if you are a last minute buyer. I will forward my paypal to you and confirm the pricing with you. Please don't post here, PM me. Please don't make me do your math. I have a headache already. As soon as I hit 50% I am ordering. Hopefully I'm not eating them. Carlos Hi, You may remember the billet tuna can group buy. I have been in contact with Neil and he would be willing to offer it again. He also offers a Taco plate. He sent me his newest catalog and it is attached here. I have no idea what the pricing will be, depends on volume, but at least shipping will be less. Carlos Engine_parts_catalogue___Type_4___rev.01.pdf ( 121.27k ) Number of downloads: 749 Update, I believe that I have enough commitments to reach the following pricing I believe im am at 10 for tuna can, tunacan cover and tacoplate. I think it will be pretty tough to reach 25 of any particular piece. tuna can @ £41=$59.60 at todays exchange tuna can cover @ £21=30.51 Taco plate @ £29=42.13 There will be shipping, and possibly duties, I'm not aware of what they will be at the moment. Figure a small/med flat rate box, Plus a share of getting the box over the pond. I will contact each of you who has expressed interest to this point. I will keep this alive till 6/12. Again, Please PM me if you are interested. I may miss contacting you. Carlos |

Hi,
I have pinged Neil regarding a delivery date. I will update here as soon as I hear from him. For the people that have escalated their pay pal to dispute, I am returning your money tonight. Anyone else want to bail, please do so. I will eat them all if I have to. I will never do anything like this again. I have been on this forum since before the 914club breakup. If anyone ever contemplates a group buy, I have advice that on how I would do it differently. I cannot express how offended I am that someone would think that would take advantage of them. I am at risk for the whole cost of this group buy. If Neil falls thru, I eat it. He came through on the last group buy. Let's face it, it is a low demand specialty product that he makes on order. I guess I should have told my 85 year mother I couldn't come down to Fla to take care of her during her medical emergency. Anyone else want to bail, dispute through pay-pal. Carlos |

As for those that have initiated a disput via PayPal because they can't wait or think you've taken advantage of them for say $65.00 and can't stand loosing that amount. They simply should get another hobby...but that's just my opinion. The forum participation have " evolve " . Some might say they trust everyone, but in reality...I don't think so. Good luck finalizing this GB. Just my .02....and no I have no skin with this GB...and yes, I've been here since the break up of the original club |
