    Sign up by replying to this thread. Don’t chicken out. You are either in or you aren’t. NO maybe, no waiting on the wife, gf or bf to get permission. There is enough time to make up your mind or find a doctor to sell your kidney or pawn your wife’s jewelry. If you are on the fence to see if it’ll go up to max discount before you jump in, you are HOLDING the group buy back. Don’t be that dude.

    So after talking to a Garmin vendor, he can cut us a deal.

    They must be shipped to one address. The vendor is not willing to ship separate orders at the moment, he just doesn't want to deal with it.

    I MIGHT be willing to purchase the bulk order upfront under the following conditions:

    1. I get 20 commited members, plus 5 backups.
    2. You pay shipping - You can save shipping by combining orders.
    3. Paypal funds and you pay the paypal fees - You can zero out paypal fees if you use bank funds or paypal balance.

    The discount for the Regular would be $80 OFF MSRP, which is $450

    The discount for the Mini would be $55 OFF MSRP, which is $350

    The vendor is in California, so the California guys would be saving on the taxes.

    I would pay for the bulk order upfront via credit/paypal. Once I get the order, you pay me and I distribute it to you.

    I will NOT take your money upfront.

    I know a few of the T4R guys are up for it.

    I am still thinking about it, if enough interest is put together, I am willing to do this.


    IF I can find another vendor that would be willing to ship each one individually close to the same pricing, I will go that route.

    This is the updated list. You can change your mind up until 12PM CENTRAL. After that, order will be placed with vendor and you are locked in.

    Historically, it takes about 12 days for me to get the units. Vendor places order thru Garmin, Garmin ships to them, Vendor ships to me.

    Time to look for Amazon boxes and packing material!

    Thank you.

    The Minis have shipped and are scheduled to arrive on MONDAY!

    If you are going to pay with bank funds via paypal, please move your money into paypal first. Sending money from the bank thru paypal sends the recipient an "Echeck" that takes four days of verification. I will NOT ship the item until this "Echeck" clears, unless you don't mind the wait.

    Communication is the key to my heart. If you want me to hold your item because you are out camping, exploring, out of the country, etc, now is the time to speak up. I will hold your unit for 5 days if I do not hear from you. After the 5 days, I will sell the unit at my price. Please respect this, I do not want to float the funds too long. Please communicate!

    Looks like they will arrive today!

    [​IMG]

    Please send me a PM with your address so I can get a shipping estimate.

    Once I provide the shipping estimate, you can submit payment.

    I get home late this evening so please let me have Monday and Tuesday to package these up and up to Wednesday to ship the last one.

    The regular seize have shipped and are scheduled to arrive on TUESDAY!

    The total cost for shipping flat rate box is $13.65 if you are CONUS. You can shave off $2 or $3 if I find a smaller box, but there will be less packing material AND it will take me a few days to find a smaller box. Your call.

    That being said, please have funds ready by TUESDAY so we can ship these out :)
