10mm Nickel Plated Starline Brass Group Buy/Share

[The Earl o Sammich]

Brass is here.  Now we count.



Closed Order Placed 09/09/2014 @9:10 CT.    There was a $16.20 Insurance charge that was added.  Thanks to some of the generous participants I will use those extra funds sent to cover that.  One of the participants pointed out to me that USPS raised their rates.  15 cents on the small box.  Haven't looked to see what it is on the others. 

Three to four months.  I'm thinking a nice Christmas present for us.  I will get a notification from Starline when it goes for platting, a few weeks before it ships.   

They sell them in lots of 8,000.  It comes to about $177 a thousand not including shipping.  I see shipping from Starline is free but I'll have to ship to you.

I'm in for two grand.

Debbie from Starline said in even 100 increments over 8,000 is OK so no one has to worry about getting shorted.

Updates and Info,  It is posted down below that there is a 3 to 4 month lead time so be patient.  I am accepting Paypal gifts now so if you haven't snail mailed Paypal it.  Postage is either $5.80 under 200,  $11.60 up to 400 (2 X 5.80) or $12.35 for over 400.  Keep looking at this post and if something is not right let me know.

Ignorant question here but why the nickel plated instead of the plain brass?

[sstewart]

IMO Little more distinctive, easier to pick up at the range.

OK, who's in?

They sell them in lots of 8,000.  It comes to about $177 a thousand not including shipping.  I see shipping from Starline is free but I'll have to ship to you.

Are you only selling them in lots of 1,000?

I can't afford 1,000, but I might be able to get the money for 200, and those can be shipped in a USPS small flat rate box.

So how does this work? when would the order be filled? Do we pay before or after? How do we pay? Thanks

[Jakeleg]

If you get this going let me know I'd buy 1000 if I knew the details of paying and receiving. Thanks Jake

[Denver1911]

I'm in for 1000.  I'm new to this board, but am active on 1911forum and recognize you from there.  I trust shipping will be reasonable.

[The Earl o Sammich]

I'll call tomorrow and get the details.  I would need money up front.  I just don't have $1000 to float this.

I can't see why smaller than 1000 would be an issue.  Just less brass in a box.

[gandog56]

I probably would be good for 500.

[sstewart]

I'm in for 500

[Bigbehr]

Thanks! I would be in for 1-2k depending on timing.

[Desolo]

Id LOVE to get some, perhaps 500 or so, but how does one pay,  and how far out would this be?

[Geeman]

From the Starline site when it comes to nickle plated brass:

Nickel plated brass is sold in Dealer quantities only. If three or more drums are purchased, then dealer prices apply.

I don't think your talking 8K, but more like 24k pieces.

Debbie at Starline says minimum order is 8,000.

Three to four months lead time.   We would need to place order to start the process. 

If I can collect $1416 less my $354, to place the order I'll do it.

What say ye?  3-4 months too long?
