I'd be suspicious of a listing like that. How much do you want to be he asks for money in advance to him and not to the store or manufacturer?

I'll do you one better....I found a guy who will sell me 10 72 El Camino Super Sports for a thousand each, but I have to buy all of them. So the first 9 people who send me $1,000 cashiers checks get one.

Hey Donny it was flagged what was it :dontknow:

A guy was posting about buying quanilties of parts for groups of people, like if ECC members wanted to by , lets say front disk pads for 5th gens, he could give a discount?
I don't know, the idea was good but I don't know about the person?:dontknow:

Other car related forums that I have been on have put together group buys with interested members who want the same thing. If we have enough interest in a particular part, we may be able to negotiate with a vendor and do that here. Much safer than a CL ad!

Yea you can just call and negotiate with them directly if you really wanna do something like that, only thing is that you need a number of people serious abd committed to buying it

You'd send me the wrong key, I know you, and for $10.00 you'd send the right one!!!!

Well... group discount purchases are for real, but usually it needs to be negotiated with the manufacturer or distributor directly.

There's a site - www.gpsuperstore.com (http://www.gpsuperstore.com) where they regularly set up such group purchases. It might be worth it... might not be. I signed up to check out what was there, but haven't laid down any $$ for anything to date.
