Gripper 100 and 200 Model GB research

[TonyL]

I read the rules, so I hope I am doing this correctly.
I spoke to the owner of Micro-jig, this is the TENTATIVE deal:

500 to 999 Gripper 100 or 200 (any combination) : 25% off of 59.99 and 79.99 respectively and flat rate shipping of 3 per unit. All units must be delivered to a single address.

1,000 units and over same as above, but free shipping.

This is the GR-100

This is the GR-200
http://www.amazon.com/Micro-Jig-GRR...UTF8&qid=1397263681&sr=1-1&keywords=gr+-0+200

I am not saying that I want to do this, just throwing it out there.

Thanks for reading

What is it ? Never heard of it.

 

[TonyL]

Sorry. The "buy" relates to the 100 and 200 models.

Did you run this past Monty, he is the group buy guru

 

[TonyL]

I didn't run it buy anyone yet; I thought the first step was to see if it was if plausible before "burdening" Monty. We need 500 of these "gismos" for the 25% off, and 1000 for 25% off and free shipping. I happen to call the owner of the company to ask him the difference between the model 100 and model 200, and it led to a conversation about volume discounts. He is the manufacturer. As it stands right now, desire seems to be pretty low. I am not sure we will even "smell" ten . I did consult the rules first though. I hope I didn't usurp any one.

Bump

 

[Rchan63]

I'll be in for one or maybe two

 

[brownsfn2]

Even if you do not get the number you need for a quantity discount the extra $15-$20 is worth it. This makes anything you used to use a push stick for so much safer.

 

[TonyL]

I agree. I am actually going to buy it without the discount (I just don't have a use for it yet). I was trying to do something for the club. .

[TonyL]

Thank you. I watched it Friday! Good stuff

 

[HamTurns]

I have two 200's and use them all the time.

They really increase your holding ability, therefore safety.

Happy turning

[Timbo]

I picked up mine when it first came on the market. Great product that does what its supposed to. I use it all the time.

 

[Marko50]

I've got one too. Excellent piece of equipment. One of the few accessories I have that actually increases my safety and productivity!

 

[Notnate]

I have these in my wishlist on amazon right now, so if this goes through, i would love to get 2 and at the 25% off id probably get the 200s

 

[papaturner]

I would be interested if we can get the numbers.

 

[TonyL]

Thank you, but I couldn't generate nearly enough interest. I bought one on sale.
