GB4 Polishing UIM's & TB's

Folks,

So far I have 6 guys in for the GB on polishing of UIM's and TB's.

If anyone else wants in let me know asap as I am only waiting on Twinturboteddy to confirm a few things and we're going to start shipping our parts to him for polishing.

TTT, If you're reading this, I sent you a few pm's with stuff that we need to confirm before we go ahead with this. Please respond as soon as you an because the guys are waiting.

TIA,
3rdGen7

i was plannin on doing this soon, so if i get a lower price on the GB, even better, i PMed Teddy about some prices a few days ago, but he hasn't reponded yet, but i got the pricelist from someone else

ANYWAY, i am interested in what the group but price will be, and i am also intereted in gettin my ALT and alt bracket done.

i am still considering on attempting on doing it myself, but i know it won't come out as good as TTT's stuff

The last I heard is that TTT wants to limit this Group Buy to polishing UIMs & TBs only and the cost is $150 plus shipping to TTT and back.

Ok Here is the deal !

After reading this, you need to send me an email at

twinturboRX7R1@hotmail.com

to confirm that you are IN for sure, to be counted or I will miss you . There are folks from several list and forums in on this ..that is why I need to put everyone in one place i.e my email account.

The cost is $150 labour + 2-way shipping for 5 people. I already have 6 people. The cost for 10 people is $125+2-way shipping.

Here is TTT number:-
*** personal info removed - PM twinturboteddy or e-mail for more info *** if you need to contact him.

As far as payment, he will take CHECK or M/O or
if that's not possible, use paypal. His paypal info is diepat@earthlink.net

Here is what you have to do:-
1) Check online with FedEx or UPS or whoever you want to ship with and use your zip code and his zip code -91770 (plus the weight of the parts and the dimentions) to get an oline estimate as to how much it will cost. Weight the stuff first before doing this.

2) The shipping cost TO twinturboteddy AND FROM has to be added to the $150 labour cost and that will be your TOTAL cost, the total amount you have to send to him. DO NOT SHIP AS YET UNTIL I CAN CONFIRM THAT WE HAVE 10 FOR THE $125 GB Price.

3) Here is TTT's shipping information he sent me:-
Remove as much as you can from the UIM, BUT LEAVE THE TB ALONE!!! HE will take care of that. Just make sure to pack them will so that no damage comes to them.

TTT's Shipping info :-

*** Home address removed, again contact teddy directly ***

If I don't get an email from you at twinturboRX7R1@hotmail.com , you will not be considered for the GB.

$125 for polishing UIM & TB if we get ten people in this Group Buy!

Come-on everyone, it will never get cheaper than this. We're talking TTT's super high quality polishing here. Now's the time to do it!

Johnny,

The only reason I started another thread was to emphasis the $125 price we will get if 10 people participate. This was new information kinda hidden in the older thread and I was concerned that readers might miss it.

OK .. We got 9 people in for this GB !!

We also have two people sitting on the fence... holding us up.. someone push them off and take their place if they don't want in.

This is a sweet deal .. email me if you want to be included.

Remember it's $125 + 2way shipping to and from TTT for 10 GB members.

Send your emails to twinturboRX7R1@hotmail.com

First come first serve for the last slot.

If ( more like when) we get past the initial 10 people we'll have to sort that out when it happens but for now we want to get this off the ground with the initial 10

Hurry up boys and girls.. one more slot to fill.

At this rate, we should be ready to start shipping by Tuesday coming.

(TUESDAY 11th June 2002 , 9am)

Note to all, the GB for Polishing on UIM's & TB's is now CLOSED.

We are wayyy over our initial limit of 10 members but TTT has agreed to allow a few more in.

I would like to thank the the forum owners for allowing us to circulate this info. Follow up information on this GB will now be moving off-forum to private emails.

IMPORTANT – Please check your name & email address below. If there is an error with either or you would like to change your email address, please contact me asap so that I can correct/change it otherwise you will miss
updates because we are moving off list/off forum.

If anyone else wanted in you can PM TTT
and possibly start another GB. It should not be too
difficult to make another GB for 10 because of the amount of interest in this GB.

The following persons made it in because you confirmed your status before the Tuesday morning cut off, congrats.
