Anyone interested in a bonnet lift Group Buy for OctyII?

Hmph, 88 squids (+P&P) is quite a lot isn't it :( SWMBO won't wear that price :mad:

46 odd quid sounded palatable but I don't think that is going to happen is it :thumbdwn:

dstev2000 - the RSD price was for comparison, I am sourcing these lifts from "abroad" - they will be 45-50 squid each.

Let's just say phoning up Danny in Northampton to get him to weigh the units was easier than trying out my Czech on Marcin ;)

See below for P&P update.

Just so no one misses my price confirmation they are:

£46.00

Thanks to a nice english speaking gentleman at RSD we now know the kits weigh 0.78 KG each.

P&P costs to send these kits out once they reach the UK are therefore:

£2.30 SECOND CLASS Royal Mail

£2.92 FIRST CLASS Royal Mail

£4.88 AIRMAIL

the postage will be AT COST - so whatever the stamp says - alternatively FREE to collect or swap at meet

Great, I'm still in for 2 lifter kits.

I scrolled up the page and saw the £88 mentioned and thought "balls" :D

I assumed the £46 was only achievable if we hit the magic 40+ units.

Obviously a blonde moment there :pillepall

Hey, as long as the collars and cuffs match we wont pass judgement.

Glad to hear you are back !

:rofl:

Looking forward to fitting these when they come. The brother in law was showing off his lifter on his mk1 at the weekend........can't be outdone by that!

BTW, if you need any czech e-mails translated, I have a good friend who's from round those parts.

Thanks for the offer, they actually read and write good english (I have been communicating by email)

It was just easier to pick up the phone to RSD.

Please put me down for a set of these. They look very smart indeed. I can make payment via paypal or send a cheque - whichever you prefer.

Thanks for taking the time to organise the groupbuy,

Thanks FocusZtec.

The list as of today is:

1) VRS195 (me!)

2) Vimto2000

3) Jonno VRs

4) dstev2000

5) dstev2000 SWMBO

6) gillywibble

7) GAFF

8) storm monkey

9) FocusZtec

I will be submitting the order size on Friday 15th - I will then be able to give you confirmed prices and you can all decide to go ahead or not.

Can you put me down as a maybe (if that okay).

I've just had a look at SKODA TUNING SHOP for Octavia, Octavia II, Fabia, Roomster, Superb, Felicia, it would work out as

Price of ordered goods: 69.99 €

Price for chosen payment option: 3.10 €

Price for chosen transport option: 18.00 €*

Total price of order: 91.00 €

* Weight of products in the cart: 2 kg -> Extra charge for goods delivery: 17.00 € (is included now)

Looking at the Royal mail site, it's a little confusing but I suppose I'd be looking at £15-£20 Stg + £ 46 = €90.21 - €97.70

In my case I'd be better to order direct from this crowd, sorry about that :o

FINAL UPDATE - 15th JUNE:

Due to only NINE (9) orders the price has slipped slightly:

Kit+packing weighs 0.78 KG - CONFIRMED

Shipped to the UK the units cost 72.42 EUR - as of this morning that is £48.93

PLUS onward UK postage means:

UK orders: £51.23 TOTAL to your door

EURO (Ireland orders - GAFF): £53.81 TOTAL to your door

In case the EURO strengthens I would like to suggest adding 1% (50p) and I will send back change or refund if no movement or if the EURO weakens. Thanks

I'm still in!

Phil

Hey Paul, Thanks for the PM.

I'm still interested, the price works out about €80 which is €10 better than off superskoda (the reason I put the previous post up was I wasn't sure what the outcome would be with postage to Ireland). :thumbup:

I'm still in too. Paypal option?

am i too late for this mate? if not please count me in...

thanks,

keoghan

Im still in also, thanks for PM. Payment would be ideal by paypal if possible but me know either way :)

Just waiting for Vimto2000 and JonnoVRs and it's a go!

Payment by PayPal accepted (add 20p + 3.4%) or by credit/debit card (20p + 2.9%)

= PayPal £1.96 fee or £1.70 for Credit/Debit card

Or send cheque to me (I will assume it will clear - to save time)

As mentioned above, if I slightly overcharge you upfront for currency and then return funds in the form of cash sellotaped on card in box etc (approx 50p say).

Once ALL funds are paid I will order them.

When the retailer has processed the charge to my CC (which has no currency fee - normally 2.75%) - I will know the exact price and inform you.

PS: ExFiesta - not too late - Welcome!

Thanks mate, can you please PM details for Paypal and I'll send you some cash... :)

Woah there tiger! ;)

I need to know that everyone is happy for me to order first - else it isn't a "Group Buy".

I am not acting as a conventional retailer - I do not want a garage full of these kits just incase some one might want one.

Also the international shipping is a significant factor to overall cost and I need exact order size to divvy up the charge.

Once I know who is happy with price we go ahead. Then I collect money, then I order kits. Once they arrive in Blighty you get them sent out Royal Mail.

I will PM you all my email, address details (so you know where I live just for your records rather than anything else - or possibly to send cheque etc) and payment options when I get a decision from the two remaining members.

exFiesta, I note your Occy is "Build week 27".

What's the rush on the bonnet lift? It'll be here before your wagon is :thumbup:

Ok if you want to contact me direct my email is:

[email protected]

Please note: this email will only exist for the duration of this GB.

Outside this period please contact me via site PM.

No worries mate, sorry if I jumped the gun... just didn't want to hold anything up! Like you say there is no rush, though in the mean time I could probably use them for holding the garage door open!

Thanks mate, can you please PM details for Paypal and I'll send you some cash... :)

Same here mate - just drop me the total and the email address and i'll do it later today :)

Thanks for arranging.
