I've noticed a couple of requests for Blue... but i'm sorry to say that i can only do Black or Silver.

I did post a while back stating this but its probably been lost a few pages back now.

Hope this is ok.

Cheers,
Neil


NP, i only look at the first page...

I'll take Silver then!



Silver for me as well.

Right now, someone who purchases one of each and gets both seal kits, will pay a grand total of $132.07 - delivered to their door.
That's a pretty good deal!

So who and when do we pay??

Please put me down for 2 tacos & two tuna cans in blue & seal kits for all 4. I'm in the bay area so, if anyone is organizing a bulk ship to San Jose, SF or somewhere close by, let me know & count me in!! piratenanner.gif

Thanks,

Just noticed only 'black and silver'. Silver for my 2 tuna & two tacos.

Chris - is it cheaper to bulk ship to the bay area?? If so, I'm willing to take all the orders & distribute from my humble abode here in San Jose if someone else isn't already doing it! idea.gif

You can save a few dollars by grouping.
The choice comes down to how easy it is to meet up with the one who receives the package.

Right now your 4 pc order ships cross country for $9.62 in a Regional Rate A Priority box.
I can fit quite a few more pieces in the box without any added cost.
The LA group has a dozen pieces, so 9.62 divided by 12 = 81 cents per piece.

I'm not going to accept shipping payments until the parts are sent from England, so you have time to work on the idea.

Here's the latest spreadsheet:
Click to view attachment

Taco Plate price reduced to 27 pounds sterling.
Exchange rate went down a little more.
One thing the spreadsheet doesn't reflect yet is postal price increases due to hit at the end of January.

Here's my current payment plan:
GB closes Thursday night.
Friday I'll post the final spreadsheet and will PM people my personal Paypal address.
At that time I will take payments (no fee please) for the Taco Plates and Tunacans with import shipping only.
I'll post who has and who has not paid and keep the list updated.

We need a deadline for receipt of payment. Is one week sufficient?
If anyone doesn't pay it will affect the price of everone else's order, however, I have a plan for this possibility.

When we reach the payment deadline I will send our group payment to Jonesy.
As soon as I have an arrival timeline from him I will release the url to a webpage with Paypal button I created for the seal kits and delivery payments.
Paypal pricing will be adjusted to make up for any discrepancies due to exchange rate or dropped orders from the first payment.

This method ensures that everyone pays the correct amount.
It ensures that the Group Buy isn't on my company books but the seal kits and delivery are on the books.
It gives people more time to change their mind on group vs. individual delivery and on the number of seal kits they want.

Some how this has turned into a unofficial group buy. And then with the addition of the gasket kit from Chris...how much do we owe? Ps I've only requested one tuna can and gasket set. Do I PayPal Chris or? Sorry to ask as I've not been following this for a few weeks now.

Thanks

Here is the Jonesy info from the first page of this thread. I thought for 'individual' shipping and no gaskets, one would just pay Jonesy (the maker of these parts) according to the costs below:

Hello all and thanks for your interest.

Heres some figures for you;

Taco plate
£32 each for 1-4
£31 each for 5-9
£29 each for 10-24
£27 each for 25-49
£25 each for 50+

Tuna can
£45 each for 1-4
£43 each for 5-9
£41 each for 10-24
£39 each for 25-49
£36 each for 50+

Shipping
£8 for 1 Part
£2 for each additional part up to 10 parts
£1 for each additional part over 10 parts


As an example if you order 10 taco plates and have them shipped to the same address they will work out to £31.60 each including shipping, which is less than the £32 for just the part. Or better still if i can make 25 for you then they will be £28.64 each including shipping. But for 50 they work out to just £26.32 each includng shipping.

$$$$ - To give you an idea of the exchange rates -

£31.60 GBP (the shipped cost for each taco plate if ordering 10) will work out to appox $50 USD.

£26.32 GBP (the shipped cost for each taco plate if ordering 50) will work out to appox $40 USD.

Hope this helps, if you want more info/prices etc just let me know.

Cheers,
Neil
<< Jonesy

Here is the latest cost info from euro911 (starter of this thread):

QUOTE
EDIT 1/22/13 - PRICE DROP ON TACO PLATES, NOW ONLY £27 each

As of Jan 31, the count on Taco Plates is 33, @ £27 (currently $42.75) each + shipping*

... and the count on Tuna Cans is now 45, @ £39 (currently $61.75) each + shipping*

You obviously haven't been paying attention. slap.gif

Jonesy is not the organizer of the GB, and he clearly does not want individual payments to be made for a group buy organized by someone else.
I'm helping Mark S., who started this deal, by handling payments and distribution.
Go to the new thread I started this morning to find out what you should do next.
Group Buy Payments
euro911
Chris' post #91 outlines how this GB works.

When all the numbers are crunched, all payments will be sent to a special Pay Pal account that Chris has set up.

Each participant will be notified as to how much to pay for their order.

When Chris receives payments from all the participants, he will send a single payment to jonesy for the entire order of Taco Plates, Tuna Cans and shipping from the UK to the US.

Chris will receive a single shipment from jonsey and will be distributing (US shipping) to the participant's locations (either group shipping, or individual address shipping - each buyer's choice).

For those who chose LA group shipping, their orders will be shipped to my shop in Harbor City. All the rest of the orders will be shipped to the individual's addresses as noted. You folks will need to provide Chris with your shipping info.

As Chris stated in post #91, you will be expected to make two payments to Chris as follows:

1) You will pay for the items you ordered (tacos and/or tunas) using the Personal Payment (Gift) option so he doesn't incur a fee for receiving the payment. Chris will pm you the payment amounts and the paypal address.

2) You will also pay for delivery and any gaskets you want separately, using a webpage link I will pm to you all at the appropriate time.

Stay tuned ...

Group Buy Payments

Hey, I am not on here 24/7 and NOT trying to ruffle anyones feathers. I was just going by the information that Jonesy sent to euro911 which included 'shipping' information down to just one part, which would indicate shipping to an 'individual' directly, with one payment to the seller.

Since I ordered the taco plate, it would be nice if I could hook it up. Does anyone happen to know if this gauge can be put into the brake warning light area on the fuel gauge?

I just PMed Pete that he can get a tunacan.
Even if everyone comes through, I think we can easily accomodate a few more without issues.

... and maybe even hit the 5th. tier on tuna cans?
