Testing the waters for a group buy

Just testing the water a little here.

Roush is discontinuing their TrakPak Coil Over suspension kits.

If I could offer them shipped to your door for $850 for a group buy of 10, would anyone be interested?

Current price from Roush is $1,500 plus shipping.

You can view the item here on the Roush website

Confirmed

1. Local Customer
2.
3.

10.

How would you go about doing this. Getting 10 sets of them shipped to you and break the sets down on your own?

Correct. I have 2 kits in stock currently but would need to order 10 to have them palletized and shipped to me. Each kit weighs about 54 pounds so shipping them one by one would be cost prohibitive.

Roush is a 2 day shipping time from me. Ship from Roush on Monday, receive on Wednesday.

Yes, 10 is the target. We've got the group buy going on other forums as well. Since we started it this afternoon we have 2 kits spoken for pending confirmation.

I see. Now for the million dollar question. The $900 for the kit would you need it up front or would you be fronting all the cash and getting reimbursed.

Once we get 10 committed we'll collect the money. You can pay by credit card, paypal, or check whichever is best for you. We all work hard enough for our money now-a-days, no sense in having tied up with us.

Thats no good! Trying to get forum members a deal before these are gone. Shot an email off to my Roush contact and got a quick response - on a buy of 10 they can wiggle the cost a little more.

Cost is now $850 shipped to your door

Quantity is quickly running low so Wednesday April 27th will be the cut-off for the buy.

Anyone here have this set? It's a good deal; just looking for testimonials from street driven perspective.

Hmm, that certainly makes things more enticing.

Way to go PureSpeed! Thanks for such a quick response.

Now I'll have to think about it.

I've got the Tokiko HP's on right now, but the faux-coilover Roush Trak Pak setup isn't a bad way to go...

Thanks Sanctus!

The adjustability is great, especially the camber adjustability this kit offers.
