Constella Baffled sump - GROUP BUY Sep/Oct 2012.

[Ross]

Guys

This thread is for CONFIRMED members of the Constella Baffled Sump group buy which I am organising on their behalf.

Prices are:

1-4 purchased = £145 plus delivery

5-9 purchased = £130 plus delivery

10+ purchased = £120 plus delivery

Post in this thread ONLY if you can confirm you want one. Not "maybe" or "possibly" - I'll be expecting you to pay at the end!

I will run the group buy from today (27/09/2012) until 04/10/2012 as this covers end-of-month payday, and end-of-week payday for most people.

I will tidy the thread as we go along, and add people to the "confirmed" post (below) as they post in the thread.

A NON-REFUNDABLE deposit of £25 is payable before 04/10/2012, and delivery will be to your individual address approx 10 days later. (Delivery price to be confirmed, but will be somewhere around £8).

Deposits will be payable to me, and I in turn will pass on your money to Constella in one lump. Once the baffled sumps are ready to ship, I will again post here and you will need to pay the remaining balance before shipment directly to Constella (details will be in the thread when the parts are ready to ship).

Make sure it's a gift obviously, and please remember to put a note on the payment with your saxp username and saying it's for the sump.

I hope that's clear. Any questions, please ask.

THIS IS NOW CLOSED - NO FURTHER ADDITIONS ON GROUP BUY

Hi.

I suggest you contact Constella directly. I think they will be happy to ship to Turkey, but they will need to do it. It's unfair on a member here to ask them to post you one in case something goes wrong. I think it should still be ok for you to be in the group buy, but of course there will be some additional postage :)

Cheers!

Anyone else? You've all been paid now, so dig in your pockets and save your engine! Small investment if you've a decent spec build!

[nickhead]

I'm in! :)

[Ross]

I'm in! :)

Nick has now pulled out. Removed from above post.

[Ross]

Just 3 more then this gets silly cheap!

[paddy1981]

Deposit paid mate

[Ross]

Deposit paid mate

Thanks!

Guys, PLEASE remember to include your forum username on the paypal payment. It's obviously tricky for me to relate one person to their payment, especially when you use your mums/gf/sisters paypal account to pay ;)

[nazmitocak]

It is not so difficult to ship it to turkey ?

[nazmitocak]

If you are trying to organise something like this you could ship it to me, as you could see i am a premium member

I'm not shipping the items. Constella will ship directly to the customer. If you are outside of the UK, please confirm with Constella directly that they are happy to ship to you.

Cheers!

Pfff!! thank you very much

[Steph_at_constella]

As Ross says, confirm with us, we are happy to ship abroad but you will need to contact directly for shipping price!

[Wee_monkey1987]

does this include gaskets and fittings?

[nazmitocak]

My problem is turkish custom, for 6 months all goods i buy from uk stack in the custom...
So my request is, one of you could take my good and send it to me like a gift or something, i will pay the shipping from uk to turkey , for sure .
regards

[Steph_at_constella]

Considering that that is Illegal, no. We will ship directly only!

[Ross]

Igorbio now paid!

Just two more days before I close the group buy guys - if we can get just 3 more people signed up, everyone saves yet ANOTHER £10 ;)

Put the word around - last push!

[Igorbio]

Come on track boys , help your engines live long - it's a bargain!

[Ross]

BUMP

Last day TODAY fellas. Dig deep :)

[Ross]

All. This is now CLOSED.

Constella have now received the deposits, and the final price each will be £130 + delivery.

I have passed on your contact email (paypal address) to Constella also, and they will contact you directly to arrange final payment and delivery details soon.

Speaking to Steph, I think the baffles will be ready to send out in around a week. :)

Any questions, ask me or Steph.

Cheers.

[Aidan-106]

You need to ask Constella for the invoice as how do they know you are paying by card over the phone or by paypal, also whether you want gaskets or not?

[deano_123]

email said they would send a paypal invoice and gaskets were optional, optional as in pipe up if you want them

cheers for the lack of help

[e8_pqck]

No, they would reply with email, you have to email them back first. I worked it out fine.

[Aidan-106]

[deano_123]

Might be a stupid question but have you checked to see if it has gone into your spam folder?

[Aidan-106]

yep all checked and nothing....:S

[axbob]

[James_B]

The email address is sales@constella.co.uk the phone number is 01509 507341 I rang them it's easier than messing around with emails

[SGregg]

No worries :-)

[Aidan-106]

sweet and how much am i paying in total i have payed the deposit

[James_B]

sweet and how much am i paying in total i have payed the deposit

£140 including postage insured to the full rrp of the baffles (plus £18 if you want the gaskets also) minus the £25 deposit obviously so £115 (or £133 with gaskets) I hope this helps the best bet would be to give them a call tomorrow

[SGregg]

This is the E-Mail I got from Steph

Hi everyone!



Thanks for getting involved in the group buy for the sump baffles!



The total price is £130 plus delivery of £10 making a total of £140.



Delivery is fully insured to the RRP of the baffles.





You have all paid a deposit of £25 which leaves a total of £115 to pay. This can be paid via paypal invoice (ill send It over to you) or via the phone on card.



We can also offer you the 2 gaskets for the sump baffle at £18 for the pair.



If you want a free pair of stickers please let me know a colour preference and I shall send a couple out to you! ( I even have pink should anyone want them)

Should anyone have any questions or want to discuss anything please call me directly on 01509 507341 or alternatively you can email me here.





Look forward to speaking to you all soon!





Kind regards,

Steph

Which is what James said

[Aidan-106]

sweet will call/pay tommorrow thanks guys!

[Steph_at_constella]

Everyone all sorted now yeah?

i was away from Friday with Monster so didnt see this!

[deano_123]

just sent my payment through paypal

[Aidan-106]

anyone had theres yet?

[e8_pqck]

Nope. no reply to email either, poor service tbh seeing as I paid instantly.

[Aidan-106]

hmmm i got told on the phone they where dispatching last wed... still nothing

[Ross]

Just spoken to Steph and she's going to update asap - fear not, you've not been ignored :)

[Steph_at_constella]

Im waiting for the gaskets to arrive guys :/ Half of them turned up but the other half havent!

grrrrrr :@

I can send out the baffles without the gaskets and send on the gaskets later if you like?

[Steph_at_constella]

haha Ross...same time

[James_B]

I'm in no rush, waited the best part of 3 months for the group buy to go ahead so a few extra days doesn't bother me

[SGregg]

Snap, I can wait for the gaskets to be delivered before you send out the baffle :-)

[Aidan-106]

i will wait too, cheers !

[e8_pqck]

No worries Steph, just keep us informed - bad news is better than no news, it's far more frustrating wondering where it is rather than knowing what the problem is.

[Steph_at_constella]

Sorry! its been mental, trying to keep everyone happy in both jobs is incredibly hard!!

Just checked on the progress, should be here friday/monday at the VERY LATEST :)

[deano_123]

jolly good stuff

[Steph_at_constella]

Little update guys, possible delay with the gaskets, STILL waiting for them to arrive.

They have had an earfull off me this morning and am currently awaiting an update!

Will keep you posted!

[Aidan-106]

any news? cheers

[e8_pqck]

Meanwhile, back at the gasket factory...

[Aidan-106]

lmfao ian

[Steph_at_constella]

You laugh but it really is taking the piss.

I did actually ask if they were growing the materials for the gaskets. I have now been assured for what is possibly the 20th time that they will be with me tomorrow. I have literally rang them everyday for the last 2 weeks. (including saturday when im not actually at work here!!)

Im going to go all hulk on their asses if i dont have them tomorrow!

[Aidan-106]

haha no worries

im ont buying one (have one already) but it is nice to see your on the ball with it and keeping everyone informed :y:

[deano_123]

well??

[Ross]

I'm sure steph will update soon but as far as I know, the gaskets came in finally on Saturday. I would guess these are being packaged up today/tomorrow and sent out ASAP :)

[Steph_at_constella]

Ross is right but they came in Tuesday, not Saturday, was other parts that were special order from Saturday.

They are going out today!! HOOORRAAAYYYYY!!!

Never using that supplier again....

[Ross]

These have left the building :)

Most people should get these tomorrow.

Cheers all!

If there is more interest in a few months time, I'll look to organise another group buy (if I can convince Constella!)

[SGregg]

Mine came today :D

[Steph_at_constella]

Good :D you should all (except igor and the lovely gent i spoke to who wants his fitting) have recieved them by now :)

Any issues give me a call/ PM as i have tracking numbers :D

Big thanks to all who participated!!

[Jimmy-Boy]

Any chance of another group buy? Would like one within 3-4 weeks ideally :)

[Steph_at_constella]

If you think you can gather enough interest im sure we can sort one :)
