Hi Nav, I need 6 not 4. Is the order in yet?

Given the lead time it is worth buffering a few more.

Hey let's pull this after the year's out, eh? Holidays.. and dadgum spending.. :help:
I was thinking that myself Jer. I'll look into this the second week of January to get final costs.

Here's the tentative list:

Gepetto: Six
laatsch55: Ten
jbeckva: Four
premiumplus: Four
BMWR75: Two
NavLinear: Two
fitz43: Two
Rex Everything: ?

This gives us a total of 30 so far. Did I miss anyone?

For all members: if you are interested in purchasing these capacitors please post here. The final tally will be taken mid-January and the purchase placed shortly thereafter.

So Nav, will you PM when you're ready, or should we just keep our eyes on this thread?
Thanks for doing this. Quantity pricing ROCKS...

I'll PM those that have responded for mailing addresses, PayPal info and any other information needed and we should some bump this thread every couple of days to let others know about the group buy.

Nav, with your avvies a guycan't help it!!


Joe, I certainly didn't mean for you to change it, but it is cooler. If you had something planned like going through your whole Gepetto paraphenalia, don't let my little obsession stop ya...

Have you pulled the trigger on the order Nav?
Not yet. It's looking like mid January before the order goes in. I'll get in contact with DK the week of the 6th and place the order the following week.

I'm not sure what to ask for shipping yet as the caps won't fit in the small USPS flat rate box. I have small shipping boxes and access to bubble wrap but my guess is five to ten dollars per CONUS shipment. Any inputs regarding shipping?

I use PayPal when ordering online but have never used it to accept funds. It seems that there is a fee associated with receiving funds unless the money is gifted. The fee is than paid by the sender. PayPal has this one figured out don't they.

Hi Dennis
They will fit fine standing up in the medium flat rate box. That should be your shipping venue. Approx 11.50 per box.

PayPal will add $0.30 plus 2.90% to the cost of these. So if a cap costs $28.50 then you should be charging $1.12 more for each cap plus $11.50 for the USPS shipment. You can get 12 caps per medium flat rate box.
