bump for interest
If you're serious about getting a group buy together you might want to post on other forums and facebook if you canbump for interest
Anyone got a set for sale before I order from SRS?
Their shipping is painful, lol...granted my package is large as I ordered a set of their fenders and shipping was $280While an "official" group buy couldn't happen, I wonder if there would be enough interest or be feasible to just place a bulk order from SRS? Shipping is half the cost, and looks to be the same at ~$100 regardless if 1 set is ordered, or 5. Get 5 people to go in, and should be able to change the price from $230 to ~$165ish (includes an estimated $20 to distribute out in the US).

Just got a response from srs tech about a group buy:
540 Euros for 5 - shipped for CA ~ $130 split 5 ways (not including shipping to other parts of US)
995 Euros for 10 - shipped to CA $118.2 split 10 ways. (Not including shipping to other parts)
Does NOT include the VATS tax... so I guess this would be the best deal we can get. Maybe $130-140 if 10 people buy in...
Group buy anyone?

It would have to go to one person. Then they would have to ship to the other GB members.
That's what I mean. One person get sent money from others to order, order X amount of pairs, get the package, then they ship them to everyone.
Unfortunately, that post was 3 years ago, and nothing ever happened. The issue I see, is nobody probably wants to just blindly send a stranger on the internet money for who knows how long on the promise of receiving flares at some point.
