Hi James - can you put me in for 4x 240 sedan sun visor clips? P/N 1360896.

@OhNoesAVolvo this part is discontinued: https://www.skandix.de/en/spare-parts/engine/engine-mountings/engine-mounting-right/1024645/
Can you confirm you are fine with the aftermarket HD replacement? https://www.skandix.de/en/spare-parts/engine/engine-mountings/engine-mounting-right-heavy-duty/1028678/

The Aftermarket HD one will be fine, thanks James.

@carnut222 do you want to add any other items? It's a relatively large amount of shipping for 7 euro worth of clips.

Hmm. Don't really need anything. Maybe I should do an FCP order as they have the clips and I could use some oil and air filters etc...that might be more economical. Thanks.

@carnut222 okay well if you do decide you want in just let me know by next Friday

Yeah will do. Given you'd have to post them to me which would be $10, I think the FCP option is the way to go. Thanks.

These 2 items if can fit on budget

jamesinc

@GTLexus no problem, I've added your parts

Everyone else, we currently have 10 people in the group buy and 2 parcels meaning the per-person shipping cost currently stands at a very palatable 28 euro (about $40).

We still have a few hundred left in the "budget" so now's the time to get in on it!

Hi James...just curious, are you splitting the shipping cost evenly amongst each person, or are you doing it as a proportional share? I'd think the latter would be more fair, but then again somebody may buy a small expensive part so they may think it unfair. Just a thought bubble. I assume you're just splitting it evenly given your comment about the shipping cost for those sun visor clips. :)

jamesinc

I've never calculated shipping on parts value, always based on "what would you pay for shipping if you ordered outside of the group buy". Skandix shipping is flat-rate (except for "XL" items, which are excluded from the group-buy anyway), so everyone who participates pays an equal share of the total shipping.

i.e. everyone pays: (individual shipping cost) / (the sum of individual shipping costs) * (group buy shipping cost)

Hopefully that explanation satisfies everyone. If not, all I can really add that as it stands currently, this is what you can expect:

Shipping (group buy): €28Shipping (no group buy): €140Group-buy saves you: €112 (~$175)

Some people in the group buy spend a bit more for domestic parcel forwarding from Sydney, but even then you're still going to come out miles ahead.

Brad

Hey James

Can I please add the following to my existing order:

2 x https://www.skandix.de/en/spare-parts/brakes/brake-calipers/repair-kit-brake-caliper-guide-bolts-front-axle-for-one-brake-caliper/1003731/

No worries if it won't fit in the budget though.

Thank you.

elguapo

Message me to let me know how much of my share I have to pay in shipping and best way to pay for the order. Total should be 18.29 Euros.

jamesinc

@elguapo I saw your PM before I saw this msg so please disregard - yes this is fine, I will add your parts to the group buy. Shipping will be something in the area of 25 euro per person. Once April 16 arrives I will contact everyone to confirm orders.

jamesinc

@Brad yep that's fine, we're approaching the spend limit but not quite there yet.

jamesinc

Alright the group-buy is full with 13 participants. I'll start messaging everyone today to confirm orders and provide Euro totals (Australian dollar totals will come after I place the order)

Ansett747 | Jonathan

Don't mind about my order. I've fully purchased my shopping cart! ?

jamesinc

All good @Ansett747 | Jonathan. Everyone else, sorry I have been sluggish I've been out and about all weekend. I'll send you each a PM today with totals and to get your confirmations.

jamesinc

Okay, I sent out confirmations last night and I've got approvals from most of you already, just waiting on @elguapo @Helix and @GTLexus
