Calgary group buy - J&L Livestock

[SoloSK71]

Hey,

I am looking to see if anyone is interested in this? Fish, coral, clean up crew, etc.

I would like to have the order over $300, perhaps even more, in order to get the lowest shipping price and better quantity discounts.

Trying to do this while the cooler weather (but not cold) prevails in the next 3 or 4 weeks or so.

If you are looking for inverts or CUC, they have a huge list @ http://www.jlaquatics.com/documents/invertebrate_list.pdf

I'm game....

I'll start planning an order but need at least 2 weeks more like 3-4 if that is possible...

[SoloSK71]

Three to four is the plan.

Charles

[syncro]

I'm in for a small order.

[cbrine]

I'll take a look and see what I need. CUC is a def for me!

[Drfu]

Charles, im in, thx

[DigitalWeight]

I'd be in for a CUC

[Skimmer Juice]

I would like a couple fish depending if they have them in stock when you order, I want to get a couple barnacle blennies

[SoloSK71]

I have started a Google Docs spreadsheet for people to use. PM me with your e-mail address and I will give you access.

It is pretty self explanatory. Order is planned for early October unless the weather is completely horrible then we will discuss an alternate date.

Charles

[SoloSK71]

Anyone else interested? Looking like October now.

[aquatic_rice]

[SoloSK71]

Still open.

Charles

[Drfu]

Still open.

Charles

Hey Charles, when do you want my order as its almost the end of Sept?

[SoloSK71]

Sure if you are still interested.

Charles

[SoloSK71]

Anyone who has sent me a PM with their e-mail address now has access using the link I sent.

Order will be open for two weeks.

Charles

[hfp75]

For anyone looking for a cleanup crew this is far and away the best option... Same if you need a few specific fish...

[btuck887]

If you don't mind me asking what's the plan for splitting up the shipping costs? Equally or based on order value?

Thanks

Equal value, so $30 split among all the purchasers.

Charles

[Baker]

I'm in for an order.

[SoloSK71]

Send me your e-mail address for access to the file.

At the moment there are only three orders in the spreadsheet of all the people who have requested access. I would like to get this order firmed up for the first week of October and shipping the second week.

Charles

[btuck887]

Going to have to pass. Thanks

I removed my items as I wanted them sooner. In the last week I may order more.

[SoloSK71]

I am travelling and will get the latest people added tonight or tomorrow morning.

Charles

[hfp75]

My order will be in later tonight....

[aquatic_rice]

damnit, got caught up with work and totally forgot about my order... next time

[BC564]

Is there a new deadline for this??

[SoloSK71]

Same as it always was. Tomorrow end of day, then I will confirm with J&L what is in stock and the actual prices over the weekend and set a shipping date next week.

Charles

[aquatic_rice]

sweet! thought it was the deadline because I had trouble with the spreadsheet link.

[Jaro]

Am I too late?

[aquatic_rice]

i think you have until tonight to get your order in @jaro. send solo a pm, he organized the order

[SoloSK71]

Cut off is PMs sent by midnight tonight. Only 6 orders from the whole list of people who PM'ed so get your order in if you have not already done so.

Charles

[brettkla]

Added our order on the spreadsheet.

Thanks!

[SoloSK71]

OK, the deadline for further people to get in is now passed. I will get J&L to review the orders and let us know availability and final pricing, then I will set up payment and shipping.

Charles

[Eouen]

thank you for adding me last night, i put in my order at the bottom, hope it isnt to late to get it in

[SoloSK71]

The order is in to J&L and I will be calling them this afternoon to discuss availability and shipping dates.

Charles

[SoloSK71]

Order acknowledged as received by J&L and checking availability.

Charles

[SoloSK71]

The order is back and I *think* I have shared it with everyone. Let me know if you are not able to see it in the same folder as the spreadsheet.

On a different topic I have to go to the US for 3 to 5 weeks on Sunday for work so I won't be able to receive the order or get anything for myself. The prices are no different and shipping would only be $1 more for the participants. If there is someone who wants to take over as the group buy leader send me a PM

Charles

[hfp75]

I'm gonna check my schedule....

[Jaro]

Anyone know what the status of the order is?

[Drfu]

Fellow Reefers, first let me introduce myself, my name is Dean (DrFu) and i'm taking over for Charles (solosk71) on this group buy. Because of some issues with the document being in a format i could not access till today I have not done anything with this so let me appologize in advance for taking so long.

I have a spreadsheet with the following Canreef members orders:
Charles (solosk71)
Jeremy (DigitalWeight)
Cody (Skimmer Juice)
Garth (Jettawagon)
Hans (hfp75)
David (aquatic_rice)
Brett (brettkla)
Jaro (Jaro)
Skye (Eouen)

If their is anyone else joining this order let me know asap as i'm contacting JL tomorrow, thanks.

Dean

[Drfu]

I have recieved an email from JL and they inform me that they are getting a large stock order in tomorrow. What we are thinking is a Monday or Tuesday shippment, I will pick up the livestock either tuesday/Wed from the airport.

I will keep everyone posted with the cut off date, then i will be taking payment once orders are confirmed and 100% accurate. Since i will not know the exact shipping charge till the last minute we will do the shipping charge COD when you pick up your order.

JL does have one request for a phone #/email so I have added a couple of columns for all of you to update, please do so as they use these to mark all packages on who's who's, thanks.

[DigitalWeight]

I have entered my details into the spreadsheet including highlighting that they had the wrong product on the invoice and highlighting the correct CUC package. Thanks for taking over the organization!

[Eouen]

I am still interested in ordering the items i have. I am going to double check to see if there is anything else i want. When is the last day to put things in? As for now, the items I have are defiantly a 100% want for me and good to be ordered. Thank you for taking this on.

[SoloSK71]

I want to thank Dean very much for helping out, and to apologize to everyone for the change in plans. Good luck with the buy!

Charles

[brettkla]

Information entered,

Thank you

[Drfu]

the order is not closed as of yet but will keep everyone posted on here when i know when it is, thx.

[Jaro]

Dean, thanks for taking over on the order! I tweaked my order in google sheets a little and added my contact info.

[brettkla]

We updated our order. If there is a small clam in stock we would like to add that back in.

Thanks!

[Drfu]

Final details are in:
1) cut off is this Sunday
2) payment must be in by Monday @ noon
3) Order will be submitted to JL on Monday
4) Order will be shipped on Wed
5) Pick up with be Thursday

[Treebeard]

Where is pickup happening? Does everyone need to show up at the airport or are you taking the order back to your place? If it's your place what part of town are you in? If it's the airport what time? I would like to order some critters but I live in Strathmore and work until 4:30.

[Drfu]

The pick up will be at my place in the afternoon/evening

[Drfu]

JL Order is now closed, thanks to all for prompt payment and see you all on Thursday
