Hi all,
It looks like there is some interest in another group buy. I have asked Doug if it is O.K. with him to use his website to facilitate the promotion and he has been gracious enough to agree (official group buy post to follow in that forum). So, I guess this will be sort of a dual fronted process. First, the exchange offer stands. I think that aspect has been explained in previous posts, PM?s and e-mails but if anyone has questions just let me know.
If you want to get in on this group buy it will work as before. 5 ? 9 participants gets everyone 5% off regular price on kits, 10 ? 19 gets 10%, 20 ? 29 gets 20% and 30+ gets 30%. Prices, details and installation instructions can be seen here
www.milspecproducts.com/KITPLANES.htm . Drilling templates are included in the kits but there are two additional ?special? tools that are not included. They are C-Lock pliers p/n 4P3 regular price $21.00 and retainer tool p/n T-26 regular price $17.00. You may have access to these tools through a local maintenance shop or may be able to borrow them from someone. If not, we will offer a 10% discount on the tools if you purchase them with your kit. All kits will be the modern (upgraded) standard.
The group list will be open through the end of the month 03-31-08. Please call, fax, e-mail or PM me to get on the list ASAP. I will need your kit preference, ?special? tooling requirements (if any), shipping and billing info and a telephone number to reach you if there are any questions. Once we know how many people we have, we will know the final discount rate and we will start shipping. The cost of shipping will be added to the invoice or if you have a UPS / FedEx account number we can bill freight collect. No one will be charged until your parts actually ship. Lead times will depend on how many participants we have and our production schedule. I have some stock available now but from the looks of it so far we will need to run more before it?s all said and done. So for everyone?s benefit please let me know when you place the order if you need your kit right away or if you have some time to play with. This will allow me to get the parts to those that need them first and not hold them up.
I enjoy offering these discounts so everyone can get a good deal but the amount of effort and coordination required to facilitate this program, plan production and still maintain our other commitments is substantial. So this will be the only group buy we offer this year. We may take another look after Sun n Fun 2009. But if you are going to need cowl fasteners this year and want a deal, now is the time to take advantage. I hope everyone understands.
If I have forgotten anything or you need more information, please let me know.
Thanks!
