Group Buy - Engine Dampers
« on: April 15, 2012, 04:31:47 PM »
Looking at a Group Buy on the two engine dampers.

Please specify in the following format:  

n x Cam Belt side damper
 
n x Gearbox side damper


I will leave this open for a month, then once we have total numbers will start gathering up funds from folks, then purchase them and distribute them accordingly.

Modifying the bush eyes from M8 to M10 will have to be done by yourselves.  (Done with a sharp 10mm drill and let the eye cool after 30 seconds of drilling)

Hi Matt,

One of each please.

Cheers

Darren

ps - is this going to be a one off, or continuously available, just at a higher price?

In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. But, in practice, there is.

I'm chuckling at the fact that only one person has actually read the request for the format, despite it being in massive bold type  ::)
(Thank you Eric  ;D)


Prices of both dampers is covered in the other thread related to engine damping forces.  
http://www.lanciabeta.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=1561.0

Single unit cost the following:

Gearbox  - £25

Cam belt end - £65 + vat

Discounts are yet to be confirmed but its based on number of units required.

At this rate this will be a one off....... :-\ :-\ :-\

unfortunately I can't risk spending any more on the Beta or I'd sign up immediately, I am seriously thinking whether I should continue with the restoration or not as it's a bit of a mill stone.

Registration for this group buy is now closed.
I now have the total numbers required for both dampers.

Next steps:

1.  I will discuss the discount we an get for both items. (Two different suppliers but will check if one can supply both items)


2.  I will then contact each person who has requested I order them on their behalf and advise them the individual cost based on the discounted damper unit cost divided by number of members involved.  I will post up the Excel spreadsheet for transparency purposes so everyone can see all the facts.

3.  Members can then gift their payments to me via Paypal, send me a cheque, bank transfer or pay me in cash when I have the majority of the monies I will order the units.


Postage / Shipping
I will calculate two postage costs: one for UK and one for European shipping.  

Please bear this in mind when making your payment as this will need to be included.

How long does it take after I've paid for these?
When I ordered a single unit for the cam belt side I was advised it takes up to 4 weeks as these are made to order, however it arrived after about 2.5 weeks from point of order.


Holiday

Please be aware: I am away on holiday for the first two weeks in June

Questions

Any questions - feel free to ask
