Shark Group Buy - now closed

[opentoideas]

Just on the off chance I havent completely missed the boat on this,

looks like you are in luck

i have added those who have asked since the close to the end of the list.

as Ben has said - since there are payments outstanding you can join but must pay directly.

once all payments are in the units will be ordered and it will be too late so if anyone else wants in then just give Ben a call and pay your money

Ben has agreed to let additional folks as long as payment is made before all others have paid top bloke!

please remember that either way at 13:00 on Saturday (when Shark close for the day) thats it.

no more payments will be taken and the units will be ordered. there are people that need the map for a deadline so there will be no extension on this.

thanks to all that are participating and if you want in - hurry up, the clock is ticking

[Mute]

Oh aye, call centres taking messages and contact details. Very posh

I eagerly await call back with debit card in hand

[Keith_VRS]

I'm afraid I'm going to have to duck out of this buy, guys. Apologies for the inconvenience, it's just an expensive month. The money that was going to remap and STS has now been allocated for a years tax and MOT.

This is my first year in bike racing, and already it's setting me back a fortune on tyres and race fees. However, this is priority over my every day transport.

I don't feel so bad given that so many others are still tagging onto the buy!

See about next time, should another buy come along in the future.

Rgds,

Keith.

Thanks to everyone for actually getting it together and paying so we have 30 people. I honestly thought that more would have dropped out and the units would have cost £75. I have done lots of other group buys on other forums and there is always a bit of a let down when it comes to paying but not here. Thanks and heres to a few more bhp!

[Zabba]

I expect I'm probably a bit late, but I'd like in on this. If I'm reading the thread correctly, then this Saturday is the cut off (12th March). With this in mind I'll call Shark tomorrow to see if they'll have me, if so I'll pay at the same time.

Couldn't agree more. I haven't been a member of this forum for very long but I've done group buys elsewhere which have usually been a complete disaster! A big thanks to David (opentoideas) for organising this with Shark and for keeping it closely monitored, great work!

[BrOwS]

Can also add myself to the list, spoke with Ben yesterday to sneak myself in as I'd been away and had missed the deadline! Looking forward to receiving my box

44. BrOwS - Fabia vRS + STS - PAID

[opentoideas]

Thanks Folks

it is getting a bit more confusing but only due to the further generosity from Ben at Shark

so if you are one of the 38 that signed up prior to the buy closing then you have until this Saturday 13:00 (12/03/2011) to pay

this deadline is fixed as there are those that need the map for a given time and this was agreed at the start to be when Ben must have payments to allow him to order the boxes the following Monday.

Now since there are still payments outstanding, even if you did not sign up before the buy closed Ben will add you to the offer if you call him directly and pay.

Either way the key is paying Ben

At 13:01 on Saturday if you have not paid – list or not – then you will have lost out on this opportunity :'(

It sounds like we are keeping Ben busy but there are only a couple of days to go and its all over.

thanks again for the kind words

[Jeeves]

I'm considering the DPF removal option for my A4, but I'm not sure if the STS can hold the necessary data for this at the same time as the normal Shark remap. If the dealer routinely updates my ECU after the DPF has been removed, will the car "protest" and can this be resolved just by plugging in the STS and reflashing, also reinstating the remap too? Might PM Ben this question if he doesn't see it here or if nobody can answer it.

[opentoideas]

if anyone else has paid then let me know and I will mark it up just so we know where we are

either way we are well over the 30 paid so well done to everyone

with only a day and a half to pay I am hoping that many showing as outstanding have paid already but it looks like Ben is really busy at the moment.

if not then it looks like we may have a load of drop outs but at least it wont make a difference to those that are in.

if for whatever reson you have not yet paid then please make sure you get it done by the deadline. the buy ended last weekend and as Ben has already mentioned he had a pile of messages waiting for him. dont get lost in that pile

I dont want to sound like a broken record but if you have not paid - you are not in! PICK UP THE PHONE :p

if you cant get through post on here and let us know - then we can figure out how to help if needed

you would need to speak directly to Shark for specifics but if the map needs to be altered for the DPF removal then Shark can do this via email (thats why the STS is so helpful) there would likely be a small cost for the alteration of the map but they would be able to clarify that too.

did you know that the MOT regs are changing next year and it looks like removal of emisions control divices would result in a fail....... something to think about :wonder: it can be done but needs to be done with this in mind

the reflash from the dealer is one thats been discussed previously and you should be able to reload from the STS but if not then again with the STS you can email the map to Shark for them to correct.

Ben has already said he is snowed under with PM's and messages - if you need an answer then please call him as there is a fair chance he wont get through the messages until after the deal is closed

[hornas]

I PAID TOO, to Ben by phone

why I am shown as red does it mean anything?

[Dom T]

I PAID TOO, to Ben by phone

why I am shown as red does it mean anything?

Ben hasnt updated the paid people for 3 days, as he has been busy.

You are in red because you are one of the people that signed up after the GB closed, I wouldnt worry. If Ben can get 50 people I think it works out about £20 saving per sts, so hope for his sake a few more people join in the next 24hrs

Think hes going to be working around the clock the day after the sts units get posted

Also I'd like to give a big thanks to openideas and Shark performance for this GB, I was just about to order an sts the day after this GB was announced so its saved me a few £££'s

[opentoideas]

I PAID TOO, to Ben by phone

why I am shown as red does it mean anything?

yes, as Ben hasnt had a chance to update the list I have updated to green those that have said that they paid. if you have called Ben since he last updated the list but not mentioned it on here then thats why you still show in red

have changed you to green. its just so we can all see whats going on
