Ok I'm confused. What is the original price for a set of these? and now that we have over 10 sets... I would need to send you the price -20% +shipping? _________________ 1980 924 NA

Original price is 80 british pounds for a complete set of 8 lifters with no grub screws. The final price will be dependent upon participation, using the discount schedule Gavin posted in the OP. Presumably, once we know how many people are participating, Gavin will sort out shipping and invoice everyone accordingly. Also, since the exchange rate fluctuates wildly from day to day, you should expect a 1.5 to 1.75 multiplier on the exchange rate in order to figure out how much it will cost you in US Dollars.

Not to derail the group buy, but this is sort of on-topic...there is a Hazet valve adjusting tool for sale at the moment on eBay. I've been watching it, but as I already have another version of this tool, I don't need this one...but it would be a nice addition to somebody's toolbox:

Correct. I'm still waiting for Newmans to get back to me on shipping options.

i think there is a chanche to do a "special delivery" from seller for me and for you
we pay for parts and our individual delivery to pocketscience
then the seller will deliver to USA, to italy and to romania...
i think this is an easy thing to do.... keep finger crossed _________________ 924T Dta inj + sequential LPG

OK, Newmans are happy to do whatever delivery we want. How do we want to proceed? I'm happy to bring all the Aussie ones here then distribute, but the rest of you need to tell me how you want to do it. I can't recall the cost when I had one set sent here, but I think the fallback is individual shipments from the UK to each buyer...? Joining shipments means you'll have to figure out the onward arrangements between yourselves.
Let me know how you all want to proceed?

I'm happy to coordinate in N.A. or US if it's cheaper for everybody to do it that way. _________________ erstwhile owner of just about every 924 variant ever made |

If Im correct, when sending from UK to US not sure other places but if the shipment is over two kilos, the cost go high, so not sure, but maybe individual packages under two kilos migth be an option, not sure yet the best way,
Also to make clear, when is the end date line, to step in to the group buy and pay for goods?
I feel that sending my sets directly to me would be faster and I could get them install soon. _________________ 1979 924 N/A, Snail Shell

Newmans are in the UK.
If you want your shipment sent direct to you then that's fine.
Want to get a finalised list of participants by Monday if possible. Dan put his hand up as recipient of the US orders, unless you want yours direct. I'm guessing the EU guys would want direct shipment? I'm happy to coordinate the AU orders - again, unless you want yours direct.
