Please be patient, the vendor has been unresponsive to my emails this past week. I will be calling them on Monday. This is not a good sign but on the other hand a good reason to ask for a better discount.
Thank you
Thank you

Talked to the vendor.
I hear these items are handmade so he's willing to sell them to us for $75 including shipping.
Regular pricing is $89.95 plus about $6 for shipping.
He's willing to do a pre-sell and ship individually and take the orders via phone individually (vs me buying them all, shipping to me, and then me shipping to you).
The pre-sell would be for a quantity of 10. Once he's received orders for 10, he'll ship them all and then take individual orders for 30 days following if more people are interested.
Please email me directly thekaratedojo@socal.rr.com and let me know if you are still interested or want to be added to the list above.
Stay tuned for the launch of the group buy! I'll will post as we are ready to go!

group buy
If the price was $75 including shipping I would take 1 not 2 as I originally stated. However, for $81 total I too shall pass, but thanks for trying!

(I organized a group buy on a BMW K1200LT website earlier this summer on windshields and we ended up with 73 buyers. As the list got longer I renegotiated with the supplier and he continued to drop the price until we ended up with 20% off the product and approx 15% off of shipping. Maybe he would budge the price if more were interested, possibly a sliding scale depending on buyers? Just a thought.)

I think you get your wish, If I read this correctly it IS $75 shipped, not $81.
This is not a bad discount. Total without group by would be about $96 shipped, 20 dollars off is MORE than 20%.
I am going to have to think. I am planning on going to a driving school at the end of the month, so it all depends how much the helmet cost.

I'm afraid I'm going to have to pass as well.. I can appreciate the billet aspect.. and if I were to make one, that's probably what it would look like. But, my Taco Bell cup doesn't know what "billet" is.. unlike my wallet. Thanks anyway!
