Reefcleaners group buy in FEB !!! or ???

[Elysia]

Joel and I want cleaners! What says you guys? How many people can we get interested in doing a group buy from http://www.reefcleaners.org ? Its true, some of the marcos aren't in stock right now, but some of them aren't expected to be back in stock until June. And my toby wants to eat some inexpensive snails now.

I believe we get free shipping w/ an order of $150 or more. But everything is priced very reasonably, so it will likely take a few people to get our order up to that point.

What says the group? Should those that are interested put in an order regardless of the total, and split shipping costs if necessary? Or should we wait until we can bully enough people in to ordering so we get free shipping?

Once we have decided who all is going to order and when we are going to order, we can proceed. I am fine w/ having the order come to my house, as I am home all day (as I am unemployed w/ no prospects) and I am willing to drive people's animals to them (caveat about my car inserted here.)

Well, if I were to go in on a buy, i'd be looking at chilton's and/or limpets, as well as possibly a couple snails to replenish a couple in my tank. Reefcleaners is one of the only places that carries limpets and chiltons as far as I know.

I'd be in depending on when. I need to get food for my mantis soon. There is a guy on Ebay that sells crabs and snails by the bag full (about 100) for around $20-$25. I wasn't looking for anything special, but if you guys are looking to do this soon, let me know what the prices would be. I don't mind spending a little more to help you guys get better deals.

Just got an e-mail from John at reefCleaners this morning. they are having a clearance sale from today until the 13th. 30% off all items. Now would be the time to do this.

Id be in for an order. did the group buy form get filled out? I could put an order in for $25-30 I think. maybe a bit more. let me take a look at the site and get a better dollar figure for what I want.

 

[Tampico96]

ok, i just did a recalculation Seems I will be good for $50.

 

[TomRep]

We're working on getting a small order together for our club in the Lehigh Valley Area (TheReefLounge.com). Maybe we could put both group orders in together?

Damn, Tom, I can't PM you because of the whole selling misunderstanding. I do want to order stuff.

We have this stupid Verizon DSL and it comes and goes (I HATE it.) Tomorrow I have dog sitting and company from South Africa in the evening.

Svynx and Tampico, do you want to go in on the Lehigh Valley buy, or do you want to buy stuff later? I do agree that it would be a good idea to buy stuff during this sale.

Depending on what is available by the time I get to order (and not taking into consideration the 30% off -- do you need a special code to get the 30% off?) I will be spending around $60.00.

 

[TomRep]

Yes, you do need the special code. i'm not allowed to give out my e-mail address due to this who situation, but there is a way to get it from the site. if you don't want to do that, just go to thereeferslounge.com. Sign up there and go to the Reefcleaners.org forum. thats where I have our group buy listed. oh, and it's all free so no worries.

[TomRep]

forgot to mention, this order can't be shipped until next week. not sure why, but thats what it says on the site. So, in that case the order doesn't have to be placed until friday.

[Tampico96]

I would like to get in on this too. going to the lounge to see the listing there

 

[TomRep]

the more the merrier! I believe if we hit $150, we get free express shipping (overnight). I would have tyo double check that though.
tom

 

[Tampico96]

I think you are right. sounds like it is very likely that we will be able to hit that $150.

 

[TomRep]

Today is the last day to get in on this for the 30% off. We are above and beyond the free shipping mark! We are getting free express shipping and the order will be at my house NEXT Friday. I am making a trip to TFP on Saturday (Feb 21st) to deliver the products to their rightful owners! If your interested, there is a thread handling the whole group buy on TheReefersLounge.com

I may be interested in a few things... let me think about it for a bit and I'll post back ASAP this morning.

 

[Jandree22]

Another thing... Bill and I can't access TheReefersLounge at work... heavy web filtering. Could someone list our 'wish list' over there?

Also, are you saying there's 30% off all of their listed prices?

 

[NCNBilly]

I may be in too, since Joel agreed to hold my stuff.

 

[TomRep]

the 30% off price is off EVERYTHING in the store! there is a coupon code to put in when checking out. you can actually do the whole thing yourself and it will be added to the group buy. hope the mods don't get mad at me for giving out my info since i'm on suspension, but here goes anyway. shoot me an e-mail at BigDogRulzUply@msn.com and i will give you all the info you need. you don't have to get on thereeferslounge to be part of the buy.
