Cambelt Group Buy - now closed!

Not open for further replies.
As it stands, the GB looks as if it is doing the typical GB thing and falling apart.

So far I have deposits from John Friday, Lucky Jennings, Chris Suggitt.

Kevin Tyahooa was sending a BACS transfer but I have no recieved it yet.

Paul Moss has pulled out from the GB.

This leaves a total of 3 deposits, 1 in waiting..........sub 5 people required to claim the GB price sadly.

Regards

Ben
 
With the current numbers I will not be able to offer the GB price for 5 people as I will not have the purchasing power to reach the discount levels discussed with suppliers. I might be able to reduce costs a small mount from the single OE price (£787.41), but it wont be as beneficial for people who actually stuck to the GB intentions.

I would expect that I should be able to knock the price down to £720 ish at best, however this is based on 4 people and I am still waiting on the deposit from Kevin.

Regards

Ben
 
What's happened to Captain_28 and CSL Craig... have they dropped out??
I thought Dallan L3.0 AJE was interested as well?

Ben - I'm going ahead with this anyway, I need it done and you have my deposit, i'm not going to mess you about and drop out now.

Regards
Lucy
 
Thats no problem Lucy, I appreciate it.

I will endevour to attain the lower prices for the remaining 3 or 4 people.
 
Who has bought Simon's Mars Red car? it needs the cambelt done as I recall - perhaps someone from the GB could PM Simon to ask him if the new owner is a member?

So far 3 deposits have actually made their way through.


^^^^ Think i am missing something here?? :s


This is another reason i didn't feel guilty about pulling out from the group buy.
 
One was you yes.

But I was in contact with kevin last tuesday and forwarded on details as he wanted to do a transfer rather than pay via card, however it has not come through yet. Thus only 3 deposits have come through so far.
 
This is ridiculous. I cant afford to wait around while people make their minds up. I thought it was all sorted? Sorry Ben but its not worth me travelling down to you if the price increases. Matt has organised a good price at Renualt Preston so I will be taking my vee there if this group buy falls apart.

Have you rung all the people who emailed you their details to find out what is happening?
 
I (Captain_28) have paid my deposit and will be going through with this either way just hope we can round up some others soon to get a better rate as need to get mine done before the summer gets here, saying that do we have a summer?
 
What can I say chris.

After all the effort I put in I'm just as dissapointed as you, especially as I will be out of pocket for organising a courtesy car for the GB individuals.
 
Thats the risk you take, it can take a long time to organise these things and peoples prioritys change over time.

I feel for U Ben, maybe a few extras may pop up now its actually happening fingers x
 
Ben,

The people who emailed you their details (6 people I believe).... have you spoken to them on the phone to clairfy if they want to go ahead or not? I find it strange that 3 people have pulled out at the last minute.
 
I have fired off some more PM's to try to clarify things.

We need to get this closed off. Its so close and so much effort has been expended. :(

Cheers
Peter
 
I've provided the wording for the email to members. Fingers corssed it'll go out tonight / tomorrow morning.

Cheers
Peter :D
