Group Buys

[ofey]

I'll see what I can do for the panel filters.

[ofey]

I will be updating this post throughout today. So Check back often!!

The items we will be doing for this run are:
a) MZ314057 - Carbon Fibre-Look Insert Trim (B Pillar) -> 5 REQUESTED = A$176.00
b) MZ380402EX - Scuff Plates - Stainless Steel (Front & Rear) -> 9 REQUESTED = A$112.00
c) MZ314041 - Alloy Fuel Door - Branded Lancer -> 5 REQUESTED = A$195.00


* All prices listed have had GST added on already.
* I have confirmed that the scuff plates are FRONT and REAR in Stainless Steel.
* Those still interested in the parts based on the prices I've provided please PM me directly.
* And in case you were wondering, our sponsors are still making profit. Abeit a very small one.


NOTE! ALL Premium members pay this final price.
Registered members, please add $5 levy per item OR join us today!

Postage to members out of state will be calculated at cost.
Victoria members you can arrange to pick up from our sponsor or meet me at your convenience. All financial transactions will be carried out through myself regardless.

Price Guarantee
As with all things, please check with your local dealers prior to committing. I've got 2 quotes for these scuff plates @ A$140-$150 from 2 random dealers in Melbourne. So postage may well play a part. The alternative is me mailing to one person in each state and you distributing. This method would involve you sorting it out yourselves whom I mail to. I've checked postage costs for putting the alloy fuel door into a post office satchel bag and mailing it out to anywhere in Australia and it costs A$12 REGISTERED. So I don't see the other items taking the price up to more than A$25.

Melbourne members, we guarantee these will be the cheapest prices you get in this state.

Okay prices on Hurricane gear from Liverpool Exhaust.

$400 installed.

Stainless steel axleback system in either a canon or oval shaped muffler - fitted. Normal price is roughly $450 so a saving of $50 - this is going off 5 people getting installs. We also all don't have to be there on the same day to do it, you just need to leave a deposit and can come in whenever you are free and you'll still get the price.

Will look into magnaflow gear tomorrow, google hasn't been able to dig up much info on places that stock or install magnaflow in NSW.

I have updated the pricing for the 3 parts will be running for this round of group buys from our Mitsubishi Sponsor. If you miss the boat, sorry, I won't be doing isolated buys for anyone out of state. Please bear in mind I have a life and can't always drive down to pick up what you want. So if you want something get on board now.

PM me your intent purchase and I will let you know what account to transfer your money to. I would ask everyone out of VIC to also put a $20 additional transfer on top of the total cost of things you are purchasing to cover postage.

*Bump*
I'm wondering. Are the prices we're offering that bad? First I had enthusiasm, then suspicion and now that the prices are announced, no one's actually putting in actual orders?

[Nicho]

what is the actual design of the scuff plates? Do they all have lancer written on them?

No. Only the front 2 have Lancer written on them. Here are the online images I can find of them:

b) MZ380402EX - Scuff Plates - Stainless Steel (Front & Rear) -> 9 REQUESTED = A$112.00

I have a connection at Mitsubishi from when i bought my car....
he quoted me that he could get for me $175 for the B-piller trims
and around $115 for the scuff plates...so i probs get through him...
if the price was a little cheaper i might have considered a group buy
for these items.

Still interested in the K&N Panel Filter as a group buy.

RPW have replied me about the group buy. I need 10 individuals and they'll sell it at A$86/- plus freight.

So someone now will tell me that they can get it at A$83?

I must have been brought up on a different school of thought. I used to be told:

"the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few"

[Deano1964]

i can get that price for the other items..... I'm not trying to be smart... I got that quote.... I will be speaking to him tomorrow and
i will see what price he can give me for a group buy...so i am thinking about the needs of the many.

http://www.rpw.com.au/shop/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&page=shop.product_details&flypage=shop.flypage&Itemid=31&category_id=144&product_id=1744

is that the filter??

Cos they have it "Price per Unit (piece): $85.45" + Freight

I need 10 individuals and they'll sell it at A$86/- plus freight.

???? how does that work?

Please do. If you can get a better price than me, I need to be talking to our sponsors as they promised me what they called DEALER pricing. They claimed that if other dealers sold us at this price, they make nothing.

I'm not trying to sound snappy either. I too want the best possible price for myself.

Due to our website already providing discounted pricing, we no longer discount clubs anymore, unless a group buy is organised which is different.

The panel filters normally are sold for $95.00 on our website
As a group buy of 10 or more, we woudl provide them for $86.00 each plus freight

So *shrug*.

maybe they gonna be increasing their prices to $95....
