There are headaches involved with Group Buys as we have seen. I have been talking directly with a few factories in Taiwan that makes coilovers for 2003-2008 Infiniti FX35/FX45 to provide our members with a group buy opportunity.

Let me say I've spent a considerable time already and trying to finalize the prices and with a reputable vendor.

I don't want to waste your time or mine. Coilovers are expensive, there is nothing around that. Typical MSRP for coilovers is around USD 1,000.

This is just a list for dedicated and committed people actually looking to buy coilover at a discount. This is not a commitment to buy, but I am handling this group buy and ask you take that into consideration.

If you don't know already, I do my homework. This will probably be the most simple, yet complex group buy as I am negotiating pricing of coilovers, pricing of shipping, pricing of shipping if going to same location (cheaper), full warranty with replacement sent at no cost with no need to send in broken unit (only asking for pictures to prove broken unit), replacement shocks at a discount for those who buy coilovers (I would say service life should be around 60,000 miles give or take driving style) to name a few.

I am also working out pricing for not your standard "we need 5, we need 10" or any "high" number. This will be a ladder scale, so the group buy is LIVE, at one buyer. Discount for EACH additional buyer, so this makes it easier to hit numbers.

In addition, I am vetting out the vendors. Not only what they can offer us, but their responsive time, ability for me to get a hold of them via email or phone.

That being said, add your name to the list and also City and State the coilovers will be shipped to. If you don't feel comfortable giving your city, just pick a major city near you if possible. This is because this helps others see if there are any shipping discounts, as what I have seen so far, it is a material savings.

Nice work doing the research and preparing all of this for the forum. You work full time, have a son, mod your FX, moderate the forum and keep the wife happy. Is there anything you can't do? :balanced:
 
I am new to the forums, so I am not able to PM yet. You can add me to the list. I almost ordered some BC's this morning, but I'd be willing to wait around for this group buy to see the quality/price. :top:
 
Nice, welcome to the forum:

What is the brand of these coil overs? Are they currently available or are you having them custom built?

wow where was this thread 4 months ago..
Looks like it will be about 10 buyers, so you think these are going to be cheaper than the megans?

+1 good info to know

Hey Ed, I know, trust and resect you so, I'm very interested in this group buy + since they're might be a few chicago peeps involved, the combined shipping discount is a huge plus!

Dang! I regret I did not check the scene this morning. I just purchased a BC coilover this afternoon, awaiting delivery. I have been "shopping" around for quite sometime now for a good price but to no avail. I have had some degree of success in the past in getting a good price by taking a deal off e-bay. Sometimes, I hit a good deal when trying to do the purchase towards the close of the month when some sales agents are trying to meet their numbers. I tried it with this company and this was his response on me trying to haggle the price for at least $100 off:

"Happy Holidays and welcome back! BC does not allow us to sell the coilovers any less then $1k. If we did, they would not honor the warranty if any issues arose. However, they do allow us to offer a value of up to $75 i.e. store credit towards future purchase, etc. [FONT=verdana,sans-serif]How does that sound to you? You can use the credit towards a second purchase now or up to one year in the future. "

Not sure about the warranty thing is true or just a polite "NO". Anywhere I check, I could not get a quote below $1K. I guess I'm tired of having to look around further, so I made the plunge.

[FONT=arial, sans-serif]Good luck with the GB, If you go for BC, maybe they will hear you with the volume involved.

They have MAP policy, so you can not do group buys for lower cost.
 
How long of a warrenty do they offer?? 1-2yrs?? I'm contemplating but depending on warrenty and price might sign up..
