LED group buy - Ends December 10th - WICKED DEALS

[Milad]

ALL PRICES ARE IN USD (current CDN to USD is .98)
Group buy is closed. For additional group buys check out www.LEDGroupBuy.com



Ok people, I got a really good deal on LEDs from CREE and im offering them up to you before I order. I will close down the group buy on Dec 10th and you have 48hours to send me the money via paypal (+3% if you use credit card i believe). Or you can give me cash if you live in vancouver area, im near JL alot.

This is a wicked deal on these LEDs considering most other places they are going to be 50% more.

The order will be paid by me after i get everyone's money and will be shipped to me. Once I have them, i will ship them out within a couple days to everyone that made the order.

For people outside GVRD area:


You guys needs to decide on one person who I can ship to and you can all be there to pick them up so its cheaper for everyone. For instance, joe bob and fred from calgary all want LEDs. They split the $20 shipping cost and I send them all to Joe. Bob and Fred meet up with Joe and pickup their LEDs.



Ontop of the below prices, there is a shipping charge to me so once we get closer to the end of the group buy, ill let you guys know how much its going to be to ship to me and ill tack it on to everyones order by % of LEDs per person.

If we get enough people in vancouver, we can have a build party if someone is willing to host it.

Questions
1. Do you know if the price for the optics includes the plastic lens holders or is that the lens only?Holders and lens
2. Are you able to get a price from ETG on Neutral whites and regular blues as well? I plan on buying a mix to get the lighting the way I want it. No, we are trying to keep cost down so we are just doing the group buy on RB and CW. All the fixtures ive been reading about use RB and CW colors only. a 2:1 ratio of RB to CW will give you close to 15k color temp (a little bluer).

3. Did they share with you the bin numbers on those? I cant specify bin numbers but I can specify kit number which includes certain bins. But this will be for everyone. any suggestions for kit numbers? Im going to research this so we can get the best.
4. How much for MCE4WT-A2-0000-000M01 mounted on a star and lens? $12ea in small quantities but there is no lens
5. Does the price include tax?Yes and No. The vendor is not going to charge us tax but the border will, expect the shipping charge to be a % of your total order
6. Are these mounted on stars? Yes
7. How will it be shipped? UPS
8. How much for neutral whites and blues? Blues $3.75 neutral whites $4.25

[Milad]

I cant really get good prices on other colors because I told them we are going to buy a ton and since i was buying a big amount already I told her we are going to be in the 100-300 range on all the LEDs so she gave me a good price on them.

My understanding from reading everything on reefcentral boards (and let me tell you there is alot to read), almost everyone is going RB and CW colors. im going 2:1 RB to CW and it should give me something a bit bluer than 15k.

Scuba im going to collect questions and just ask them every two days.

What about the ballest to run them?

ballest = drivers

drivers depend on how you build so cant really get a group buy on them since everyone might want something different. I cant point you to a good place to get a driver though. just gota know what you plan on doing.
