DIY LED Group buy

Works for me. How does this payment work? As I am sure most are wondering, do we pay deposit, all up front, what forms of payment options, etc?
 
Sorry guys I am going to pass on the LEDs at the moment because of some unexpected car repairs.
The group buy rates/discounts are still valid for those interested. RapidLed only requires that the payment is made by a single person.
Someone will need to volunteer to collect the payment for everyone and pay for all the items in one transaction.
 
OK. Since this is about to sink, lets see if we can revive it.

Here is a link to a spreadsheet I have created. We will use this spreadsheet to track everyone's order. Anyone can log on to change their order and check on the status of the group buy. The link is:

https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc...jktVGxuYUg1YjA0RGRjNnc&hl=en&authkey=COyN5usD


We will be taking orders for the next 10 days. On May 22nd should we be close (but not quite) to 5K we will extend the ordering time past 10 days to a time agreed upon by us. But, if we get to 5K, after May 22nd we will place the order and move forward.

This next part is important: I WILL NOT PLACE ANY ORDER WITHOUT CASH. Just because your name is on the list doesn't mean you are going to receive an LED. You must be marked as paid which I will do on the spreadsheet on my desktop.

Any questions chime in and please be prepared to submit your payment by May 22nd. Right now I'm still figuring out how best to do that so if you have any suggestions let me know.
 
can we paypal you the money? i think most people here have a paypal account and it's as good as cash. it will make things more convenient... what do you guys think
 
fine by me. I wasn't sure if people wanted to pay the vig to paypal but I'd really like to have some official third party record the payment transaction.

MODS: Should, in the course of this group by we violate a TOS please let me know and we will correct it directly. This is my first GB.

Thanks for getting this back on track Reefers4U! I just added my order to the list. I may add a fan before the deadline...but that is my order for now.

I see you are ordering the same thing. Are you doing a 50/50 ratio of CW to RB? I'm trying to decide if I want to add more RB to it, but since it is dimmable it might be nice to just have it split with 12 RB or CW per driver. Do you plan on supplementing the LEDs with anything. I am getting this for a 100gl build I'm just starting.
 
Paypal is good for me. Would this be shipped to our individual address or is it going to your address and we have to pick it up?

I will inquire our options to RapidLED but I would imagine that individual shipping would add cost. I am prepared to have it shipped to my casa Zip 90035. If I can work something else out I will. More to come on this.

dude. I wish I knew what the heck you were talking about. :spin2:
 
Can person for Israel can join in?
The shipping cost to Israel will be paid (I know it's not 6$).

Thanks.
 
thanks for picking this up Reefers4U.
I would suggest the following things :
1) have the amount paypaled to you as a 'gift' so you are not losing any money on paypal fees.
2) from previous group buy experience, I would highly recommend having the orders shipped to individual addresses.This would also ensure that if any of the ordered items are out of stock, that particular order can be shipped later than the rest of the stuff.
 
@vsco
I think a 50/50 ratio of CW to RB is the correct way to go with dimmable drivers as you have exact control over the color and intensity you want.
