Alrighty then!

Just transferred the $4,597.41 to Jonno.

It's going from my NAB account to Jonno's Westpac account., so he'll have the $$ in a couple of days.

Then it's down to him to deliver the $$ and we get our new bling!

Jeez, that worked pretty well, particularly compared to some of the other shitfights I've seen group buys turn into! Well done, guys and gals!

how long are they likely to take? do they actually have to make em all or are they all just waiting to be packed and sent out.

by **Jonno** » Mon Sep 05, 2005 3:33 pm

All paid as of Today.
Phil said he now can go ahead and make them and he should have them all out the door by the 20th, he was preping all the moulds etc when I turned up :wink:

You all should have them by the end of the month, those overseas orders may take a short while longer.

Apparently in the near future Carbon Fibre prices will rise considerably as Boeing and Airbus are buying all the world supplies up at double the going price for all their recent orders :shock:

Phil has 200 meters of the stuff so he should be right for a while.

suweet. thanks scotty.

Thanks again to the stunning work of Jonno for running down to drop off the dollars.

Unfortunately, I didn't think to add some $$ to cover for fuel. On top of that, the the poor bugger rooted his front tyre on the run down by collecting some debris on the road.......

Thanks mate!

Hey Alex, now that Phil's got the money and my parts are in stock, will they be shipped sooner? Also do you know what shipping company he'll use for the international orders - I was wondering if it will be possible to track the stuff when it's on the way over here.

Cheers,
Harold

Most of the order is now being made, GCC tend to manufacture to order rather than keep a mountain of stock lying around. As a result, I think they keep a smaller stock load on hand than most........

Obviously he wasn't going to really get cracking on making stuff until the order was completely finalised.

One thing I didn't allow for was Phil (da boss) going on holidays in two and a half weeks time. Hopefully this won't get in the way of a month end shipment, but we'll have to see how we go.

As Jonno mentioned, the global demand for carbon fibre is now resulting in the price of the finished product going up....But not for us! :mrgreen:

I actually had a look at a hugger on a zx12r today. And all i can say is bloody wrapped i ordered one.

by **Jonno** » Mon Sep 12, 2005 4:02 pm

Anybody received their order yet?

by **NinjaMoses** » Mon Sep 12, 2005 5:38 pm

Nope not yet. But if it gets here before next weekend I will be as F***ING happy as a pig in shit!!!!! (bike is going in a show'n'shine next Sunday

)

I got home from work Saturday and there was a big box just inside the front door ... got all excited ran around the house asking who it was for, turned out it was suitcases

by **NinjaMoses** » Wed Sep 14, 2005 9:55 am

Any chance one of you boys who organised it can drop GCC an email to see how things are going and how far off the parts might be?

I want it now damn it!
