(Bio)³ Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 I got an email from BRS today mentioning they have their GFO at 10% off. Would anyone like to join in on a group buy? Typically I will order the biggest bulk we need and then when it arrives split it into smaller portions for each person. This gets us a nice discount by buying in bulk and separating If we order the 1 gallon(7LB) each person(4 people) would pay. about $40.30 and walk away with 1.75 LB which is normally 53.99. That saves you 13 dollars off the 10% currently offered. The next bulk is at 5 gallons or 35 LB. It would take 20 people to make this order, assuming each person only took 1.75 each, your welcome to get more and fill in extra spots. it would be 35.95 per 1.75 LB. Not that much of a discount compared to one bulk size less but still a discount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(Bio)³ Posted December 3, 2012 Author Share Posted December 3, 2012 Also if you need any items from BRS you can order them with this group also. It would be great if we could get a collection of 10 names/emails to unlock group buy prices. By doing that we can cut GFO prices even more. Don't forget you can put your name/email on the list and not order anything and still get your account bumped to preferred buyer for discounts on future purchases!! Currently I have 2 names Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
victoly Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 I need some, but I don't need near that much. I'd be happy to trade frags or pay for part of someone elses order (a half pound should last me a pretty long time). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(Bio)³ Posted December 3, 2012 Author Share Posted December 3, 2012 I've still got over 1.75 Lb stored formyself so I wouldnt mind splitting with you if you cant find anyone else. Often someone will gladly pick up the last little bit also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(Bio)³ Posted December 3, 2012 Author Share Posted December 3, 2012 1.bio3 2.woods 3.victoly need more names! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+SChrisEV Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 I don't have a GFO reactor, but I probably need one, and in that case will need media to go along with it. How soon do you need to place this order? I likely will not be ready until later this week or even early next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Bio)³ Posted December 4, 2012 Author Share Posted December 4, 2012 scev if we get 10 people we can order at any time. dshel, I got the pm and if it happens I'll get you in so far we have 1.bio3 2.woods 3.victoly 4.scev 5.dshel need 5 more names to activate a real group buy, which will get us the best pricing possible for the GFO. I also need to order a new sicce PSK2500 ($110) so I will be adding that to the order. We will be well over free shipping if the order places.

Robb in Austin Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 Dunno if I need more GFO yet, although I could be talked into some, but I could use some more sponges for the reactor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(Bio)³ Posted December 4, 2012 Author Share Posted December 4, 2012 awesome thats 6 names for the list. need 4 more and we get to open up a real group buy. We will be above free shipping on the order coming to my house. Typical BRS rules you will be able to place orders separate or combined. Starts on a Tuesday ends on Tuesday following start. after GB closes your account get bumped to preferred buyer giving you a discount when ordering that is half way between GB and regular pricing. As soon as we have 4 more people for the list I'll get emails and names then send it to BRS and get this rolling! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juiceman Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 Ill change the title later. I thought brs was the only hc gfo source. I think they are, I just saw group GFO buy and didn't pay it any mind since I didn't need any GFO, lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(Bio)³ Posted December 4, 2012 Author Share Posted December 4, 2012 Change the title. With juiceman we should have 1.bio3 2.woods 3.victoly 4.scev 5.dshel 6.Juiceman Just need four names. As soon as we get them I'll send in the BRS info. If we get them fast (today/tomorrow) it should open next tuesday. Again you dont have to buy just help us out with your BRS account and become a preferred buyer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juiceman Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 FYI, it says in the fine print that you can't combine a group buy price with sales price or any other offers. Group buys cannot be used in combination with other promotions (coupon codes, sales, etc) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
