I'm thinking about setting up a Group Buy from Bulk Reef Supply (BRS) but for now I'm gauging interest to see if other NVR members are interested. Most likely placing order by the end of March.

If interested in the Group Buy. Please post what items you're interested in, BRS works on the "buy more get a better price" method so more interest of an item the better. So far I'm looking into:

Granulated Ferric Oxide Pellets (GFO)
BRS "Dual" GFO and Carbon Reactor
Reef Chili

Ed,

Thank for the heads up. I seen that when I was adding stuff to my cart. Might have to pull the GB sooner :)

If we get enough people to sign on board with them, their club group buy policy is pretty sweet. I think you need 10 members to order and we set it up as an NVR account. Then for a limited time period (7 days I think) each person is able to buy directly and get the lowest posted price available on the item. Since each member does their own ordering, there is no collecting money dividing out and delivering/picking up each order. You order, you pay, you get it shipped to you.

I'll contact Andrew over there and see what we need to do.
 
Here is what it says on their site. I have an email into Andrew and will call him tomorrow. Looks like we need 15 people to sign up to start but doesn't mean you have to order...who's in?

Group and Club Buys

***NEW*** Group Buy is now available any time and as many times as your club would like to utilize it.

This promotion is designed to maximize the discounts and remove all of the organizational hassle that normally goes along with a group buy. All you need is 10 people who want to buy at least one item from us at drastically discounted prices.

Here is how it works: For one week we upgrade every member of your club who signs up and creates an account with special "Club Wholesale" status. This gives them individual access to the maximum quantity discounts without quantity requirements on all of our bulk material as well as considerable discounts on much of our product line. Each member of the club handles their own order individually. There is no need to organize the order, schedule a pickup/distribution day, or collect payments. If that isn't enough we offer one more exciting perk: All club members who participate in the group buy will have their accounts upgraded to "Preferred Reefer" status giving them a smaller but permanent discount. The only requirement to be eligible for this Introductory Reef Club offer is that a minimum of 15 club members sign up.
 
It's A "No Brainer" I'm in.
That should make it about 10 so far.
Should be a cinch to get more members in on this.

Ok I spoke with Andrew at BRS. So here's the deal:

  • To initiate a group buy we need 10 people, any time after that we would need at least 15 people to make a purchase
  • Each person makes an account at Bulkreefsupply.com and would forward me the email they used to create the account along with firtst and last name (can be PM'd)
  • I send the list to Andrew at BRS by Monday and we will have access to the low prices from Tuesday to Monday the following week
  • For one week we upgrade every member of your club who signs up and creates an account with special "Club Wholesale" status. This gives them individual access to the maximum quantity discounts without quantity requirements on all of our bulk material as well as considerable discounts on much of our product line.
  • Each member of the club handles their own order individually. There is no need to organize the order, schedule a pickup/distribution day, or collect payments.
  • All club members who participate in the group buy will have their accounts upgraded to "Preferred Reefer" status giving them a smaller but permanent discount.

****Please note that with some items we are obligated to honor manufactures pricing guidelines. All of these products are already set at the minimum price allowed by the manufacture and we cannot lower them any further****

For example, if I ordered their DI resin alone it would cost me $44.99. With the club buy, I could get it for $34.99 (see chart below)

1.5 gallons (7.5 pounds) Nuclear Grade DI Resin
Base $44.99
2 - 3 $39.99
4 - 9 $36.99
10 - 30 $34.99
31 - 40 $34.99
41 - 50 $34.99
51 - 60 $34.99
61 - 70 $34.99
71 - 80 $34.99
81 - 90 $34.99
91 - 91 $34.99
Above $34.99

All those interested please create your account and PM me your email used on BRS and your first and last names. Please have these to my by 9 am Monday, March 16 so I can send to BRS and we can be ready to shop on Tuesday, March 17.
