    Group buy for transponders ( any interest )

    OK , so i am going to need a transponder just like ALOT OF US.
    Is there anybody interested in trying to put together a group buy ?
    To start off i know myself and 2 of my buddies are going to need one. Thats three .... I have never done a group buy on anything so am not sure how we can work it out so there are NO problems ....

    Is there any dealers that are local to us ( CT, MASS,NY,RI )that we can go through that would be willing to do the leg work and call AMB to get the best price for us while they are still able to make some $$$...

    If there where just 15 of us to buy them at $450 thats almost $6,800 and 20 of us is $ 9,000 so there is got to be someone that we can all go through ... I think we probly could have a group buy near like 30 -40 people...

    These are selling USED for $300 and up. I would rather spend the extra and know my Battery is new and have some kindof Factory War plus get the charger...

    I'm listening.
    Best bet would be contact manufacturer/retailer and see what kind of price breaks they give at 10,20,30,40, etc

    Re: Group buy for transponder's ( any iterest )

    Is it just me or are things like a transponder SO hard to have to buy? Something that doesn't make you faster, safer or at least more attractive to the opposite sex? My buddies have been busting my balls because I have my ice racing tires wrapped in fire hose and it takes me 10 minutes to zip tie them on because I won't spring $100 for tire wraps. I'll spend thousands on trick suspension, or lightweight wheels, but hate to buy things that are convienent. Is this a product of being 50 yrs old? Am I becoming my grandfather? Am I only a few years from sayin "I remember when bread was.."

    Re: Group buy for transponder's ( any iterest )

    OK , i will start doing some leg work to see if we can get something going...

    IF anybody has any ideas on a local shop/dealer that we can go through post it up hear... I was thinking of calling Noel at his place, or Rob at speed demon cyles. Anyone else have any idea's....? I am going to try and get in touch with someone from AMB. Maybe i can get some type of deal through them so that when we call just to tell them we are LRRS racer's for special pricing..

    Without an EIN or resale certificate you're not gonna get any response out of the manufacturer.
