We already have a Supporting Vendor that sells this product and we carry it in our online store so I don't foresee a Group Purchase. I'd suggest contacting Mike Troyer for pricing.

You may want to check over at http://www.fordtruckworld.com for GP's. They have them all the time.

Steve,

Is there any reason that we never have them here? Just curious.

Thanks

People are free to organize them, providing that they follow our posted rules. We have had them in the past, but I guess that when it comes time to executing a Group Purchase, sending two or three emails and following our requirements is considered too much work for some people. (see our rules at the top for details)

I don't have the time or interest to organize them, nor do I want the responsibility of being a "middle-man" for collecting payment, negotiating pricing or dealing with people that feel they got ripped off because they didn't receive their order within 20 minutes of placing it.

In addition, its simply not in our business model. We have Supporting Vendors. And, to organize a Group Purchase for products that are available through them or in our own online store simply makes no sense.

Playing the 'middle man', indeed, does suck. The King Ranch Owners Club shirt purchase was a ROYAL pain in my ass.
