a set (1 tuna & 1 taco) is @ $110.52 USD + $6 or so, CONUS?
Currently $116.11 to get it on US soil, another $5.79 for delivery.
I had a feeling you'd come around, Rich (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

You're on the list.



This is the kit for the sump/tuna can




and one each of these is needed for the taco plate







Mark / Chris,
Please add one set of each of the above gaskets to my order.

Thank you.

Updated Spreadsheet:


I can do strainer seal kits for $2.50 and Taco plate seal kits (oem O-ring and 2 oem hollow washers) for $8.50.



Please add the seal kits to my order.

Spreadheet updated.
I'll repost it after the weekend and more people have the opportunity to post their seal kit wants.

Chris,
Is this the correct gasket set.
I ordered these way back when.
I will still need taco gaskets, so you may can help me there.

Hey Jonesy, I asked for one of each item but it looks like I should have asked for gaskets for both as well. I would like both pieces in SILVER. How long are you running this group buy? I assume we wait till it's over and we have a total item count before pricing is finalized. Is this correct? I'm surprised there is not a group from the NorCal/SF Bay area. I'm assuming my items will ship directly to me. Will you be contacting all the buyers with totals when the group buy has ended?

For all who haven't followed the entire group buy thread -
Jonesy is the manufacturer of the taco plates and the tuna cans. He is in England.
However he isn't organizing this group buy.

Euro911 is behind the organization of this deal.
I offered to handle the logistics as well as sell the seal kits because I have the business infrastructure to do it efficiently.
Euro911 is keeping the list of participants updated on the first post of this thread.

He has posted that the deal closes on 1/31/2013.
At that time, I'll start collecting Paypal payments.

You will be expected to make two payments to me:
1) pay for the items you ordered using the Personal Payment option so I don't incur a fee for receiving the payment. I'll pm you the payment and paypal address.
2) pay for delivery and any gaskets you want, using a webpage link I will pm to you all at the appropriate time.

No one will know the exact price they are paying until the deal closes and I finalize the spreadsheet. Variables are the exchange rate and the number of items in the final Group Buy tally.

Feel free to organize a group shipping plan to the bay area or anywhere.
Just let us know what you come up with.
However, the savings for group shipping is only a few dollars so it may not provide a meaningful benefit.

I'd like to add an additional tuna can to my initial order of one of each. Make them all silver, please. I'd also like to order the seals required for 2 tuna cans and 1 taco plate.

Roger, those are the correct gaskets for the Tuna. The Taco takes a rubber O-ring and two small crush washers

The gasket issue was an after thought.

I'm keeping the GB thread updated. Chris is doing the same on an Excel spreadsheet. I'd be updating it as well, but I can't seem to be able to download and open it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

Again, the GB will close at the end of the day on Jan 31st. ... then just like the obamacare health bill, we'll find out what each of us will need to pay (which will be quite a bit less than buying these components individually from Neil).

I updated the spreadsheet this morning:
Attached File  TunacanGroupBuy.xls ( 34k ) Number of downloads: 133


Gasket orders are included, along with product color.

Today's currency conversion rate improves pricing a little more.
We'll see how that holds up over the next 10 days. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I put Lotus Joe in the LA group.

Got you, Andy and David (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thumb3d.gif)

In addition to the total count, I started posting the current USD costs based on current exchange rate, and will update the first post with each new order (or every few days) ...

It's fluctuating daily, but let's hope it keeps declining (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif)

I've noticed a couple of requests for Blue... but i'm sorry to say that i can only do Black or Silver.

I did post a while back stating this but its probably been lost a few pages back now.

Hope this is ok.

Cheers,
Neil
