A couple of weeks ago there was a thread kicking the tires on a group buy. I need to do some major restocking (2 part, carbon, frag plugs, bulbs, RO/DI supplies, the usual). If we have 10 people, we can get the highest volume discount on any item from BRS.

I could use some of this stuff now, but I imagine that some folks will need to plan out a bit. Can everyone vote on the dates and let us know when it's best for the group buy to start?

If you know that you want in, please PM me your last name and the email address that you used to sign up for an account at BRS. If you don't have a BRS account, sign up for one and be sure to list someone from the board as the referral (they'll get bonus points later on).

New to the BRS Group Buys? This is how it works:

Instead of requiring groups to place a single large order BRS gives each group buy participant individual access to our lowest prices. There are no purchase quantity or order size requirements. Each participant gets the lowest prices even if they only buy one item. This removes the need to organize one big bulk order, collect all the payments, and distribute the order.

To set up a Group Buy with BulkReefSupply.com simply:
  • Gather a minimum of 10 participants
  • Instruct everyone to create an account on BulkReefSupply.com if they don't have one already *critical*
  • Pick a Tuesday the group buy will start. Group buys run Tuesdays through the following Monday.

Then what? Here is what will happen after your list is emailed:
  • On the pre-determined Tuesday each participant will receive an email notifying them that the Group Buy has started.
  • Participants can start buying as soon as they get this email. Please wait for this email before placing orders!
  • During the group buy week participants will login to their own account to place their own order, which ships immediately.
  • At the end of the Group Buy each participant's account will be changed to Preferred Customer. BRS Preferred Customer pricing is generally between retail and group buy prices.
 
Any of those weeks works for me. I definitely need more Di resin, a TDS meter, etc. Sent a PM with my info since I'll definitely be participating. Thanks for organizing it! :beer:
 
The later the better for me since I just ordered a bunch of stuff. I imagine I will need to replenish some test kits by then at least. Can we still use our BRS points in this group buy?
 
I'm in. I need some RO/DI stuff, and some other random supplies. Any of those dates work for me.
 
There was, but BRS is no longer listed in the reef central sponsor forums.

It looks like the majority want to go for March. I'll go ahead and set that up, but I need everyone to get me their contact information. Only 3 people have PM'd me their details. If we can get everyone that voted in the poll to send me their info, I can schedule the buy with BRS.

Thanks everyone!
 
I emailed them, but haven't heard back.

I do know that we only need 1 more person to make it 10. Anyone want to volunteer to be lucky #10?
 
Quick question - Is there a minimum amount ($ value) one needs to purchase to qualify for this group buy? I am asking this because I am still gathering stuff for my upcoming saltwater and am not sure what I would need to purchase by mid March.

Thanks.
