    Group Buy - Trunk Plates

    The original group buy of trunk plates has been distributed, and a number of people indicated that they'd like a second chance at ordering. So, gullible as I am, here we go again.

    THE RULES:

    1. YOU send to my PayPal address ("n4ogl@comcast.net") the amount of $24.66 (calculated below) and wait.
    2. If you can't figure out how to spell my address, read the other thread starting on page 2.
    3. If I get more than 30 (thirty) prepaid orders by October 23, I can get the same price as before and I'll order and mail them.
    4. If I don't get at least thirty (30) orders by then, I'll refuse the payments and you'll get $23.75 back ($24.66 less the $0.91 PayPal transaction fee).
    5. I'll update this thread periodically with the total prepaid orders I have.
    6. Because of postage costs, if you want one (1) set of plates, place one order. If you want two (2) sets of plates, place two single orders. If you want three sets of plates, well - figure it out.
    7. Yes, this is more expensive than the first order. I lost money and took it out of my own pocket.


    THE COST:

    $19.00 Group Buy Price for trunk plates from Troy Products
    $02.00 Padded envelope to mail them to you
    $02.75 US Postal Service Postage
    $00.91 What I thought the PayPal Transaction Fee would be.

    $24.66 Total

    If calculated using the actual transaction fee PayPal is taking ($1.02), total cost is $24.77. I'd appreciate everybody who hasn't paid yet adding that extra eleven cents.

    Start the orders now!

    Mark,
    Thank you for opening up a second group buy, as I and missed the first one.
    I appreciate your time & effort to re-offer this.
    Hopefully it will not be any additional cost to you.
    I will send you two seperate orders this evening via PayPal.

    Anyone else miss the first group buy, or have since decided that they should get a set of these plates??
    Let's make this happen!



    BTW: I'm nervous just because of that police "how to" video circulating on the internet!

    Now I know why Bunny has the check book. Do you have him trained to give you all the ATM receipts yet?


    I can't hear the noise in your head. Please keep it that way.

    I installed them in my car today, quick & easy. Looks like the passenger's side is the most critical for security, but putting them on both sides looks better 'cause it's symmetrical.

    Thanks.
