I would try to negotiate on the price. Also, unless you personally are in a rush, I would wait a few days to a few weeks to get more people. I would think that the more people, the better the discount.
At $900-1000 US, which I think is the current price, this is out of my range. If the price can come down substantially then I would consider it. Also, what is the current number that are interested ??? -----Original Message----- From: Robin Gammon [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, July 05, 2002 12:30 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Exhaust - group buy? So - back to this question. I've noted all the replies received so far. Is anyone else interested? I'll be in contact with Renegade over the next few days to firm up what's happening.
