That makes sense I guess.

Hi guys, long time reader but very rare poster on this site. Please put me down for a crack kit and speedball. Just wondering what sort of time frame we are expecting till we get these kits?

Anyhow, it sounds like a fun project and one i cant wait to get into.

Hopefully i'm not too late to be part of the 15
Cheers,
Matty

I believe they're at RMAF which is on October 15-17, although I dont see them in the 300+ exhibitors listed.

Thanks for the reminder... that means I'll need $$ in my bank account. Else if we're paying Doc B individually, I recently got my first ever credit card!

And the AUD briefly reached parity with the USD overnight!

MomijiTMO · 16th October 2010, 10:11 AM

Yeah I need a credit card. I'm tired of raiding the ATM all the time and would rather just pay off one bill.

So we have 12 for sure and at this stage have 15. Anyone else is going to be benched.

DeejW · 16th October 2010, 4:22 PM

Guys got a PM back from Doc B and its much easier for them to receive one payment, so now that we have all 15 buyers I will start pming bank details. As the dollar fluctuates and it may take a while to get the 15 payments please be prepared to pay a little bit extra if there is a significant drop in the dollar, or you may get a refund. It will probably only be $5 - $10 but multiply that by 15 and I would be left out of pocket.

your just in time to secure the last place in the group buy

Depending on how quick everyone pays up may get them by the end of the month but probably early november

Am I correct in assuming this $329 figure is in AUD and includes delivery?

MomijiTMO · 17th October 2010, 12:01 PM

And takes into account the 10% discount (off the 99USD) for having 6 orders?

Blobster · 17th October 2010, 12:01 PM

@DeejW: I don't know what the convention is as I've never been involved with a group buy, but wouldn it be a good idea to set a deadline for money transfer to you? I'm just thinking it would be easier for you and we all wouldn't have to wait around for Jo Blogs to empty his piggy bank to discover he's $10 short and could he have another week so he can mow the neighbours lawn for a bit of extra cash etc. etc.

Talking of making it easier for you, if I throw in an extra $10 can I put an order in for a Bottlehead logo. I think I read somewhere that they sell them for $6 (US).

By the way jjinh, the AUD dollar is worth something like 0.976 US so it doesn't really matter too much which currency stuff is quoted in!

Yeah good idea, I think 1 week from now should be the deadline. If we only have 12 payments by then its still enough to make the order. Im PMing payment details now

DeejW · 17th October 2010, 3:26 PM

everyone should have a PM now. If I missed anyone let me know

MomijiTMO · 17th October 2010, 3:30 PM

We are leaving without you if you don't pay! Please reply to DeejW's PM when you've read it.
