Constella Baffled sump - GROUP BUY Sep/Oct 2012.

  1. #1
    Guys

    This thread is for CONFIRMED members of the Constella Baffled Sump group buy which I am organising on their behalf.

    Prices are:

    1-4 purchased = £145 plus delivery

    5-9 purchased = £130 plus delivery

    10+ purchased = £120 plus delivery

    Post in this thread ONLY if you can confirm you want one. Not "maybe" or "possibly" - I'll be expecting you to pay at the end!

    I will run the group buy from today (27/09/2012) until 04/10/2012 as this covers end-of-month payday, and end-of-week payday for most people.

    I will tidy the thread as we go along, and add people to the "confirmed" post (below) as they post in the thread.

    A NON-REFUNDABLE deposit of £25 is payable before 04/10/2012, and delivery will be to your individual address approx 10 days later. (Delivery price to be confirmed, but will be somewhere around £8).

    Deposits will be payable to me, and I in turn will pass on your money to Constella in one lump. Once the baffled sumps are ready to ship, I will again post here and you will need to pay the remaining balance before shipment directly to Constella (details will be in the thread when the parts are ready to ship).

    Make sure it's a gift obviously, and please remember to put a note on the payment with your saxp username and saying it's for the sump.

    I hope that's clear. Any questions, please ask.

    THIS IS NOW CLOSED - NO FURTHER ADDITIONS ON GROUP BUY

    Right! That's 5 people.

    Everyone in the deal just saved £15 for doing nothing but being in the deal

    Bump! Get your deposits in - I know you fuckers just got paid!

    Hi.

    I suggest you contact Constella directly. I think they will be happy to ship to Turkey, but they will need to do it. It's unfair on a member here to ask them to post you one in case something goes wrong. I think it should still be ok for you to be in the group buy, but of course there will be some additional postage

    Cheers!

    Anyone else? You've all been paid now, so dig in your pockets and save your engine! Small investment if you've a decent spec build!

    Thanks!

    Guys, PLEASE remember to include your forum username on the paypal payment. It's obviously tricky for me to relate one person to their payment, especially when you use your mums/gf/sisters paypal account to pay
  15. #15
    It is not so difficult to ship it to turkey ?

    If you are trying to organise something like this you could ship it to me, as you could see i am a premium member

    I'm not shipping the items. Constella will ship directly to the customer. If you are outside of the UK, please confirm with Constella directly that they are happy to ship to you.

    Cheers!

    regards
  22. #22
    Considering that that is Illegal, no. We will ship directly only!

    All. This is now CLOSED.

    Constella have now received the deposits, and the final price each will be £130 + delivery.

    I have passed on your contact email (paypal address) to Constella also, and they will contact you directly to arrange final payment and delivery details soon.

    Speaking to Steph, I think the baffles will be ready to send out in around a week.

    Any questions, ask me or Steph.

    Cheers.

    You need to ask Constella for the invoice as how do they know you are paying by card over the phone or by paypal, also whether you want gaskets or not?

    email said they would send a paypal invoice and gaskets were optional, optional as in pipe up if you want them

    cheers for the lack of help

    £140 including postage insured to the full rrp of the baffles (plus £18 if you want the gaskets also) minus the £25 deposit obviously so £115 (or £133 with gaskets) I hope this helps the best bet would be to give them a call tomorrow

    This is the E-Mail I got from Steph

    Quote:
    Hi everyone!



    Thanks for getting involved in the group buy for the sump baffles!



    The total price is £130 plus delivery of £10 making a total of £140.



    Delivery is fully insured to the RRP of the baffles.





    You have all paid a deposit of £25 which leaves a total of £115 to pay. This can be paid via paypal invoice (ill send It over to you) or via the phone on card.



    We can also offer you the 2 gaskets for the sump baffle at £18 for the pair.



    If you want a free pair of stickers please let me know a colour preference and I shall send a couple out to you! ( I even have pink should anyone want them)

    Should anyone have any questions or want to discuss anything please call me directly on 01509 507341 or alternatively you can email me here.





    Look forward to speaking to you all soon!





    Kind regards,

    Steph
    Which is what James said

  59. #59
    Im waiting for the gaskets to arrive guys :/ Half of them turned up but the other half havent!

    I'm in no rush, waited the best part of 3 months for the group buy to go ahead so a few extra days doesn't bother me
  62. #62
    Snap, I can wait for the gaskets to be delivered before you send out the baffle :-)
  63. #63
    i will wait too, cheers !
  64. #64
    No worries Steph, just keep us informed - bad news is better than no news, it's far more frustrating wondering where it is rather than knowing what the problem is.
  65. #65
    Sorry! its been mental, trying to keep everyone happy in both jobs is incredibly hard!!

    Just checked on the progress, should be here friday/monday at the VERY LATEST

    You laugh but it really is taking the piss.

    I did actually ask if they were growing the materials for the gaskets. I have now been assured for what is possibly the 20th time that they will be with me tomorrow. I have literally rang them everyday for the last 2 weeks. (including saturday when im not actually at work here!!)

    Im going to go all hulk on their asses if i dont have them tomorrow!

    well??
  75. #75
    I'm sure steph will update soon but as far as I know, the gaskets came in finally on Saturday. I would guess these are being packaged up today/tomorrow and sent out ASAP
  76. #76
    Ross is right but they came in Tuesday, not Saturday, was other parts that were special order from Saturday.

    They are going out today!! HOOORRAAAYYYYY!!!

    Never using that supplier again....
