Houston plum crazy lower group buy

[outdare]

OK everything is sorted out. AMSS store hours are Monday-Saturday 10am-7pm. You can call in and give your CC information or just go to the store and handle it in person. Just reference TGT (Texas Gun Talk) when ordering. We need to set a cutoff date for this group buy. I was thinking Wednesday of next week. 3/16/11 Let me know what you think. If we get everyone in sooner we can close it sooner. Remember we need at least 10 lowers ordered. I will keep up with the names and unit numbers so we can meet our goal of 10. Thanks for everyone's Patience.

Thanks again,
Bill

Thanks for setting it all up. It seems like a lot of work on your part to save $20. I'm sure everyone appreciates it. I'll call tomorrow and pay for my 2. Have you got the final price with tax and shipping for each? just curious... Also you did say there were'nt any additional ffl fees right?

 

[outdare]

There are no FFL fees. My guess is the cost will be around 110 to 120 per unit out the door with shipping and tax. It really hasn't been much work at all. I just called around to a couple of places and asked. AMSS will be doing all of the work. I just made a couple of phone calls.

I just ordered my lower. The total will be $113.66 for one. That is tax and AMSS has waved the shipping and FFL fee. Here are the some guidelines requested by AMSS in regards to this group purchase. The start date is today and we can close it as early as we desire if we choose so.

I checked in with AMSS around noon today and at this time only 8 or 9 have been ordered. So we are still 1 or 2 short of the ten lowers needed for the 105 discount.

I will get a better list of who has ordered tonight.

I just joined the forum when I saw this group buy. I ordered 3 this afternoon. I think that put the total at 13.

I'd love to get one, but I am in North Dallas. Is there any way to ship these?

Yes, to a local FFL.

 

[scgstuff]

I rarely get to Houston, but am in San Antonio, Austin and Dallas somewhat frequently. Any chance of a group buy at these prices in one of those areas? Houstin is about a 4 hour drive and the gas there and back would elevate the cost to where it would be the same or more than shipping to FFL, I would think.

 

[outdare]

scgstuff,

I just called around and set this up. I am sure most FFL's would work with you on setting up a group buy. It is good exposure for their shop plus it up their numbers. Just make sure you get the rules etc setup before you start. You can always start a thread and gauge interest in your area. Good Luck.

Doubled,
It would be cheaper to just order direct and have it shipped to your FFL holder.

So, how many did they end up ordering for the group buy? I bet they got a couple for store stock as well. I lost count at about 13? Figure there are more though from some lurkers.

 

[Texan2]

Figure there are more though from some lurkers.

There always is someone who will wish they ordered one.

OK, So who wants to negotiate a super good deal on uppers? I'm thinking super light weight to go with my super light weight lower. - Anybody? Anybody? Bueller? Bueller?

 

[Texan2]

good deal on uppers? check out www.jsesurplus.com best prices i could find.

They had a special last month which was $350 for a complete upper with a 16 inch M4 bbl. I think now that the special ended it is back to $375. Still a great deal. Bulldog bbl with a milspec bolt assembly and some basic handguards, flat top. I paid $5 extra and got a gas block with 4 rails all the way around it.

Delton has good prices too on complete uppers, but JSE was the cheapest I found. At those prices no deal on bulk buy, I asked.

 

[outdare]

So far I was told that 16 have been ordered. So we are well past the 10 requirement. I am up for a upper group buy. Not sure if we could work one out or not. It doesn't hurt to try.

Yea, good to hear from someone that has bought from them. They do have low prices. I had looked at their website before, but this time I'm book marking it.

i bought 5 uppers from them for our group and all 5 of us have shot them and been very satisfied.

scgstuff,

...... It is good exposure for their shop plus it up their numbers.......

No joke, I went, spent more on accessories than I did the lower, came back with a friend, he bought a lower, accessories, and a whole new gun. It's great exposure for the store. If you can't find a dealer in your area to work with you, show them this forum and, if they still wont work with you, find a different place to shop.

I have contacted JSE about a group buy. We will see what shakes out. They have been responsive. I will post more when I get something solid.
