right, i've just been speaking to a recaro retailer, he says if we do a group buy we can get 10% discount on the 4.5kg recaros which retail at £1480 each. is that 1. any good? and 2. of interest to any of you?

traditionally i think GB doint work unless the retailer/supplier offers it or you are always fighting to get a decent amount of sales.

you may get 1-2 guys interested but always hard work

evidently so shimmy, cheers mate.

i wanted to see how many orders we can get and then negotiate a discount with the retailer, obviously the more the cheaper. if anyone is interested pm me please. i wont be getting the seats for a few months so there is still plenty of time.

10%discount for buying how many seats???
1. no
2.maybe

I think you should aim for at least 20% for say 10 seats...

then come back and offer it out to the masses

thankyou for the welcome mr northernjim

i didnt actually specify a quantity with the retailer i just asked what kind of discount he would give with a group buy. i dont think he would expect more than 6 seats to be bought, perhaps if i told him we will buy 10 seats, i can renegotiate the discount.

its not that im giving up, its just that there has been zero interest from the community. i did also add that i wont be buying the seats for a few months so there is plenty of time for anyone potentially interested and if they are then pm me.

im going to do a bit of hunting around and find the best possible discount. will revert if there is interest.
