BRS Bulk Reef Supply Group Buy

[The Grizz]

That's a good way to do it to Amy, I guess it all depends on where everyone if from that want to order. Sometime the group buys can be very confussing and a pain in the a@@

This is great for people from all over wanting to get a discount.

What I am doing is putting the order in my name, so one order. We don't get a discount for ordering lots of stuff, (we are getting preferred customer pricing) but we are saving significantly on the shipping cost as it is split equally between the number of buyers. The thing is, you have to be close to Edmonton for this to work in your favour, as you have to come and pick your items up...they will all ship to me. Currently as it stands shipping is sitting around the $10 mark as of now...will go lower with each additional order.

Hope that helps a little.

Thanks George,

I joined a group buy from reefcentral that goes in next Tuesday. Next time I'll see if there are other Calgary reefers who want to join in to save on shipping.

Cheers!
