GROUP BUY: Carbon Fiber Fenders

[Ash-Lyn]

Guys, we are getting close..............five in and one to go. Who will it be?

You can get a picture after we make the first set, and that will be after the first six deposits are received. After six, the price will probably go up.. They are a bargain now, but will not be for long.....

Come on. One last spot at the gb price. After that it may or may not go up in price. I'm ready to pay in full as soon as the last deposit comes in.

Truth about the price, though. I was expecting these to cost A LOT more...

808 u have the deposit in?

 

[808MP5]

^yup

 

[Outlawstar98]

K updated first post! So close!
But on the side note, if we all (5 with deposits in) paid 130 more... Could we get these made? That's if we can't get a sixth. I know I would.

If you guys wanted to do that, of course I would. That would be a good business decision. Hopfully we will get the sixth so you all can get this good pricing... The seventh will definately be with a price increase.....

Bump
let's do this ppl
just one spot left at the gb price

 

[Outlawstar98]

I'm trying to think who else would want one..... I'm drawing blanks. There has to be someone else. But if everyone sends 130$ to him (I sent 175 more) and someone buys in to the sixth we would still pay 650, but if no one buy into the 6th then we pay 780, which is a good deal still lol.

 

[808MP5]

Hell that. I can wait lol $130 extra is like me paying double for shipping. When we get that last person I'm paying off my balance

 

[Outlawstar98]

Lol lame!!! I just want these now haha

 

[yudkib]

im surprised isport wouldnt start on these even with just 5. cmon isport, you know you want to!

 

[808MP5]

^hehe I want them now also =p
either way we're gonna have to wait. iSport still needs to make the molds and fabricate the fenders.

 

[Outlawstar98]

He needs 6, so spread the word! Post on every Mazda forum! Do it people!

 

[Ash-Lyn]

My opinion

Actually, I really have reluctance in starting these at all. From the talk, it sounded like they would be a hot item (i.e. six would be easy). It takes a lot more than six orders to get back to break even. Factoring everything, I need about ten orders to be profitable. Thinking ten right now is absurd, we cant even get six...... Maybe I should just re-consider even starting this and just refund the deposits. I am plenty busy as it is.... Thanks, Bob

Took less then a month to get 5, to me its not going to bad yet, its just people who are on the list now, REALLY want it NOW. Theres prob. plenty of people out there that would be interested but do not know about this thread yet. Its not easy to get the word out there. I try the best I can but I have plenty of stuff to keep up on, on this site. at work, (two jobs) and my personal life. So ive been trying to hardest that I can when I do have the time to spread the word. But just like most people out there I have many things to do. But i have been trying for over a year now to get Carbon Fenders made and I WILL NOT give up on these. Its one of the things I really want. Ill pay 1000+ for a pair of these honestly, I know Ninja would aswell! I actually expected them to much more then then the price you posted. But never give up! always look positive even under bad time! thats what I do every day! hell even without a car for the past 7 months. I somehow make it to work without even being late or missing any days! Even though my personal life is really down the drain hahaha (lack of you can say) I know that down the line ill be Happyer.

anyways!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol. dont give up hope!

 

[Outlawstar98]

And just sent a PM to 5 more people that somehow I forget to PM about these fenders that were on a GI list like a year ago. Hopefully they respond in this thread or in PM!

I've been waiting patiently for another group buy to come up for these. I need to check my budgeting a little bit due to upcoming vacation but I'm highly interested in these.

^ This.

Is there anyway to get an approximate shipping quote to Canada? TOProtege.com (Toronto Proteges) is pretty active and has an impressive number of Proteges. I may toss the fenders around over there and see if I can drum up any interest...

EDIT: Been a member there for a while, but I haven't been super active. I just PM'd an admin for the site to see if it was okay for me to put it out there...
