Interest in Billet Tuna Group Buy? Brexit sale last days Options

[cgnj]

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.

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.

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.

Before you start calling names, a nice healthy dose of STFU might be in order while you hear the other side of the story.

As someone who wanted two of everything (to the tune of $290.16) I placed my order like everyone else and paid on June 27. Look back at this thread to see the updates.

On 8/25 I ask for an update. User activity (which, I assume, can be easily verified by Andy) showed that Carlos had not been on the forums since 8/16.

On 8/27 (with no one responding) I start a claim with paypal as follows:

8/27/2016 13:07 EDT - Buyer: Hi,Do you have an estimated delivery time on the parts? It has now been two months. If the parts are no longer available please refund my money.Bill

On 8/27 jonesy says they will ship next week.
On 9/5 another buyer asks for a status. I ask on 9/6.

At this point (IIRC) Carlos had still not been on the forum since 8/16. Having been down this road before, I'm getting the feeling this isn't going to end well.

On 9/6 (with no response) I file the following in paypal:

9/6/2016 16:03 EDT - Buyer: I have not received the parts I ordered nor have I had a response from the seller. Please refund my money.Thank you

Carlos finally posts on 9/9.

So, did I renege on the deal? No. I paid for the parts and waited for them. However, a lack of communication made me nervous. I am not blaming Carlos or anyone else..it is what it is. I will gladly accept the parts I originally ordered. However, if the sellers want to sell to someone else I understand.

I appreciate all those who were not involved proferring an opinion on the safety of my money (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

Why did I post this? So name callers with no skin in the game might exercise some restraint before they start their name calling.

That's fair enough and understandable from my point of view.

I hope there's no hard feelings for anyone on this.

The group buy was aimed to help people save money. i hope people don't fall out in doing so, as that would be a shame.
