3rd Group Buy for Coccoon Hammock Sleeping Bag.

[wanderinstar]

Well actually there has been a development while BCUK has been down. There wer 5 people, I think, who placed orders. If those 5 are still interested I have someone who will purchase the rest. To make the order viable. So please send me a PM with your address and we will go from there.

Remind me please Ian,the cocoon is rated a four season sleep system?
(When used with a frontline)
Dimensions and pack size if you can recall,if not I shall go back and re-read the threads
( I should do that any way!)
My best.
Chris.

Well, perhaps I was premature in resurecting this Group Buy. We still can't seem to get up to the original 5. Will give this till Friday and then definitly cancel this.

Sorry to the 3 of you who have PM'd me.

 

[lamper]

Count me out. Probably gonna get an new bag before I look at a Cacoon.

Thanks though.

So if i say i will deffo have 2 coccoons will that help Ian? Seems a shame that no1 is interested in such a well designed product especially as the alternative would cost well over £300 and the under blanket and quilt would cost £130 ish?

Not even taking into consideration the weight and bulk saving. COME ON GUYS...... SELL YOUR SOUL..........SIGN ON THE DOTTED LINE...(blood only) BUY1 BUY2.........................PLEASE.......

 

[wanderinstar]

Sadly that would only bring it up to 4. Another one reqd. Mind you will have to contact Lakelandbushcraft to see if he is still interested in taking the other 5. He has been hit hard by the floods in Cockermouth.

If you need one more i'll jump in on it with ya

[greeneggcat]

Jaysurfer you are a good hammocker....... is that a word? Hi Ian, I hope Lurch and his warehouse are ok. It took over a year for my aunt ( here in tewkesbury) to get the house sorted after the floods a couple of years ago.

I cant speak for every one, but in bush craft nothing comes quick! Everything takes time to grow...

No, they have to be ordered through me. Hold your horses, I am still talking to Mark re taking the rest of these to make up the min order. I now have the 5 needed from my side.
This will definitly be the last Group Buy for these. i have never had one that has been so slow.

 

[Jaysurfer]

Well just let me know what i need to do

[wanderinstar]

Don't worry, as soon as I get the nod from Mark I will.

 

[wanderinstar]

Right I have had the nod. If the people that want coccoons PM me with the number you require and your name and address, don't forget your username so I can tie things up. I will then reply with the PP details. As soon as I get the money in, I will put the order in. You MAY get them for Christmas. Depending how quick everything goes.

 

[wanderinstar]

Got 4 of the 5 payments now, if the last one comes in this weekend, hopefully, I will put the order in Monday morning. Will then give you an update on ETA.

 

[wanderinstar]

Order put in this afternoon. Have yet to speak to the factory manager re eta of coccoons.

 

[wanderinstar]

Spoke to him today. They are mowed under with work (good to see someone is)
The manager thinks it unlikely that they will be ready before Christmas. At least they wont get lost in the Christmas postal rush.

 

[greeneggcat]

Sweet. Thanks for the update Ian. Bit snowed under with work till after the new year anyway (butcher) so no skin off my nose. Anyhoo cheers again.

 

[wanderinstar]

Good news at last, The Coccoons should be ready today. So that means they should be in the post for the weekend.
