Second Underblanket Group Buy.

[wanderinstar]

Hi Stewey,
The total cost is £57.43 inc p&p to UK mainland and Paypal charges. I believe Graham has answered your query about Hennessey. There are a few photos on first post using it with an HH. Wont be asking for money just yet but it will be needed before order goes in. Using Paypal should be quicker and easier than cheques and it will save me having to go up to bank every few days.
Have 13 tentative orders so far so its looking promising. Am hoping to get 50 this time as this will be last one.

I'm sorry to ask... but what exactly is an underblanked?
Does any of you has pictures/specifications or something?

Thanks

Hi Wanderinstar. Just PM'd you re this second group buy. Can I please put my name on the list for TWO underblankets on this second go. Thank you and looking forward to the imminent delivery of the first order... After the 8th of Sept I believe.
ATB from Swyn.

the underblanket is an insulated sheet similar to a quilt that attaches under your hammock.
it provides insulation in the area where your sleeping bag cannot due to it being compressed
there are pictures on the first group buy thread.

I admire your optimism

There is no way this will be the last underblanket group buy. It may be the last one you run but the demand is sure to mean that someone will take up the batten and do another. I am just trying to keep my head down so it is not me

 

[Tony]

Yeah, I was thinking the same, there'll be more! Someone else can carry on your good work :You_Rock_

.....SNIP...

GearGuru

Is Climb_paddle_play from SotP not the same person as GearGuru on BCUK?

 

[wanderinstar]

Dont know John. If he is that would explain his strange first post on here.
If your out there Gear Guru please clear up confusion , unless you want 2 blankets?

Just checked SoTP and avatar and location are same so you must be right John.

 

[GearGuru]

Did I put my name down on SOTP site? I must get my name changed so I'm the same on both sites. I only want one under blanket please.

Cheers Gearguru (aka Climb_paddle_play on SOTP)

Have just been in touch with Snugpak re this order and MD informs me that as they are coming up to there busiest time he cannot say when they will be ready until I actually put the order in. Reading between the lines, the sooner the order goes in the less time it will take to make them. So don't expect them in 2-3 weeks like first order. So don't all hang fire until last minute.

 

[jasons]

sorry no can do bit poor at the mo

 

[MagiKelly]

If I were out to turn a buck I would order the remaining 13 or so needed to make up the order than sell them at a profit when the cold weather came up

The thing I always find funny and I am sure it will happen here as it always does, is that as soon as the numbers are reached and the order placed there will be a stream of enquires asking if they can be added. I also suspect when the first batch arrive that there will be a boost in requests. People may be holding off to hear what the production model is like.

 

[wanderinstar]

Thats not a bad idea John, worth thinking about.

Your right about people waiting till last minute. Was going to close first one at 30 but with late buyers it got to 44. But this time 50 means 50.
