No you are mistaking me with someone else, i apparently dont run group buys as im selfish :D Glad it was just a simple mistake that you are happy to correct but then that was always going to be the case eh lol

Yes indeed, no doubt he will have realised he was just tired and pressed the wrong buttons on the puter if im to hang Julia i wouldnt change a thing

I always worry when i see the word Technically lol I am aware of the gravity of my accusations. Ive seen it before in his group buys and raised issues gently to no avail. Like I say, if im wrong i'll gladly take the heat and walk away but the numbers speak for themselves

Im not running any for the bodies benefit but then neither is he !!!

Just to be clear the numbers i put up in my first post exclude postage to members completely. the £84 profit is before he even charges £3.50 postage on top. So assuming his postage is calculated correctly you are just paying more for the tins than you should as a group to the tune of £84

thats fine by me, but you are buying direct from the manufacturer not ebay. If you want to pay a profit margin who am i to argue, if im wrong and there is an extra 84 quid of overhead in his numbers i'll gladly take whats coming to me edit: the postage is not really the issue here its the price...

Well clearly ive read too much into it. If everyone is happy to pay more than the product costs because its still cheaper than retail prices then perhaps we need to amend the forum rules to state that you are only allowed to make a profit of up to £100 then we will see lots of group buys. ill...

Julia he states recorded is an extra £1.10 in the OP over and above the £3.50 being charged. If you are fortunate enough to be going to the moot he isnt charging postage so you are just paying the inflated price of the tins who is doing the GB isnt really the issue here is it.

I think you mean £2.80 for a small parcel up to 1KG, leaves plenty for packaging. like i said all profit

Postage charged by the OP is on top of the costs of the tins Julia. Its blatant robbery. the costs include VAT and delivery to his door so its all profit

Im Sorry Midnighthound but you are taking the micky here. The pressitins are patented and sold by only one supplier which is tinware direct which is where i assume you will get your baccy tins from too as the minimum order quantities match theirs. Here are the links to the products so everyone...

Im interested Phil but why is postage so high? surely a quid would cover it easily?

aye not the best these do look good value though https://www.aldi.co.uk/en/specialbuys/thursday-5th-june/product-detail/ps/p/dabfm-radio/

I think the second half of the above is probably informed by the first. I can assure you im not stuck in my ways, I own some of the lightest and modern kit available and use it regularly but where i see a need for something that modern kit cant accomplish, i will turn to something that works. I...

haha ill bet some get through the same in gucci kit too. Even if my rocklites only lasted one season of outdoor life id still buy them again in a flash. they have revolutionised my leg fatigue compared to lifting my scarpas all day long
