Just shifted this over here to save distraction from the original thread.



Dangerous Dave and HS2K, lets get a group buy happening on these suckers.

Guerd, Betty and Ph2t, y'all want in as well? Any other Aussie pimps?

From Frizzens post:

$5.99 each. 3 for $11.98. Plus tax.

(Plus Shipping, of course)

I'm happy to have them all shipped here to Brisbane and then spread the love down under if that is easier. We could all paypal the funds to our US hookup for the purchase and then sort out the Oz-based postage once they land. might make things a bit cheaper for everybody.

Frizzen, would you or one of the other US pimps be willing to be our hookup at the US end?

yeah I'm in for 6 if the price is right.

Hey frizzen, would you hook a US pimp up with about 3, I bought all that my walgreens had .

If nobody else wants to do the US side of things, I guess I can. Though it would be really nice if it turns out we've got a Pimp (or anybody known by a Pimp) who works at walgreens so they could bump an employee discount off the already low 3 for $11.98 price to help our international members.

Vehicles are gonna be about $12.50 or $13.00 US for 2 or 3, plus international SHIPPING of however big of a box those take.

From the original thread, so far we have these ordered:

Dave - 6 or "several"
45tro - 2
Honda - too poor
Ph2t - too poor
Bettyk - too poor

Here is what the trucks look like before removing from bubble:


The pic that lead this topic was slightly modified, and I don't want anybody unhappy with what they get. The wheelwells on both trucks have filler plates that are painted black, the truck has a rollbar really far from the cab, they both have crap on the bottom of the chassis that does no good (hurts ground clearance) once it's been removed from packaging. Any other pics you guys want?

Hit the 'Shipping' or 'Contact' tab on their page, lower left of page they have a thing about a wholesale catalog and an email address to write to for getting it.

thanks for the offer but count me out, no cash!
you can go ahead without ph2t too, i think he has his hands full at the moment.

for sure mate!

count me in for 6 of them, never know when you need something like this around

thats going by the 6 for $13, if they are going to charge the $6 each for 6 of them i will jsut get 3

Pretty sure it's $13 for 3..... not 6 + ship.

So 6 of em' would be $26 + shipping. Still good!

Frizzen - I'm in for 1/2 let me check some funds and I'll let you guys know.

yea thats what i ment

kind of got myself confused with all those numbers floating around in front of me

none the less, still in for 6

Okay, so that makes
Dave in for six @ $26
Guerd in for six @ $26
Me in for three @ $13
Honda as a maybe for one/two.

+ Shipping + Frizzen’s gas money

Frizzen, reckon there would be a spare 15/18 or so at your walgreens?
If you can find out about shipping costs and let us know your paypal details we can start getting this orga-ma-nised. thanks mate!

Wow, looks like I'm gonna have to go drive around to many Walgreens to get 15-18 trucks.


I've got an email sent to the place that distributes Charge-N-Go clones, they do international, and their page sounds like they might deal with people instead of just businesses. One of you might want to bring that idea up to the AusMicro store just incase they want a business license to deal directly. And they could probably cut a WAY better deal.

okay, thanks frizzen. keep us posted about their email - i'll look into it a bit too from here.

if we can't do it that way and if its gonna be too much running around for you to hook us all up then i guess we could deal individually with other pimps if necessary. thanks again for lookin' out.

yeah big props Mr F

I also sent a coupla emails to both Megatoys addresses - the US one replied that they won't have any on till early next year. Still waiting on the HK dist. They ship by the case (48pcs), at US$2.75/pc, plus post.

So a case landed in Oz would be somewhere around the AU$200 mark

Put a post up at Ausmicro too.
How's your searching goin' 45?

Can't wait to try my first artic mod

I wrote asking for the catalog, incase we'd find any other must-have things beyond just these monster-bits.

Got a reply today, took off some of the contact info and all the forwarding.

Hi {frizzens real name},

I received your email and am sending you a catalog and price list in
the
mail today. Please give me a call when you get it and I can also give
you better pricing than those listed.

Thank you.

Sincerely,

Ann Kim

I'll keep you updated when I get the catalog, and all that. Really interested to see what else they've got. I'll even share pics of all the interesting pages...

yep that's the same person I dealt with, she's rather quick with responding

but if they haven't got any Bits we might be back to individual orders ex Walgreens.

a mate's girlfriend lives in Seattle, might be able to hook up a couple from there if it all gets too hard.

thats actually not too bad - i got a case of shen qui wei bit-clones recently for around the same figure.

thanks for looking into the catalog frizzen, hopefully there'll be some more cool stuff in there to waste my money on!
