Another Sticky Dash Issue

nis350 · 08-06-2023, 01:46 PM

First of all.... Thank you BOTH for organizing this.

In regard to the quantity. I checked the 303 I've been using for over 5 years for multiple cars. It is 473ml and it is still 60% full. With the unknown high international shipping cost, perhaps 2 bottles would be enough (~400ml for each member)? However, I am totally fine with 3 if you guys want. It'd worth every single penny IF it worked. ;-)

Paypal would work. Just let me know whom/how much once you guys get some estimates.

Thanks again.

Spartan has kindly agreed to take the bulk shipment from Filip00 and then distribute the individual containers to the other members. A few things to note:

1. Each member will need to send a PM to Spartan listing their full shipping address, including name, street address, city, state and zip code. I'd also include a telephone number where you can be reached if the shipper needs to contact you.
2. If Spartan is willing to re-package the product into smaller containers, we probably need to order only 2-3 of the 1 liter containers from Filip00, and each member will then end up with 400 - 600 mL of the product ... which should be plenty according to Filip00.
3.We will need to discuss payment options. The cost will be $20 for each container, plus the shipping cost from Filip00 to Spartan, plus the shipping cost from Spartan to each member. All costs in U.S. dollars. I'm still waiting to hear back from Filip00 concerning his preferred method of payment.
4. If we don't hear back from Filip00, there is another option. I've identified a retailer in the Netherlands who would be willing to ship a couple of bottles overseas. I'd be willing to work with the retailer and front the cost of the product and shipping from Europe if needed and then simply be reimbursed by the rest of the members using PayPal. The retailer may have some ideas on how best to ship the product to avoid any TSCA "obstacles". Be advised that the retailer offered that the shipping cost could exceed the cost of the product itself ... but the same will apply if Filip00 ships it.
5. Post your questions/comments/suggestions and we can collectively figure out how best to proceed now that the group buy has closed.

I'm also fine with ordering 2 bottles. Anyone else?

I may be interested in a 3rd, but price will definitely be a factor.

I'm fine either way.

The days and nights I've spent thinking, hoping, dreaming about the stupid dash and all the alternatives, cost of this is easily worth a try.

Can't wait to try this on the spare dash then just throw it outside to see how it reacts to the Texas sun.

We need to decide how many bottles we want to order ... 2 or 3? I will then send a PM to filip00 telling him the number and asking him to provide an estimate of the total cost (including shipping). In terms of the number of bottles, there's been some interest in ordering 3, while others are leaning towards 2. It's $20 USD per bottle. Obviously, the shipping cost will vary by weight. The total cost will be divided by 5. So-o-o, we need to decide. Will it be 2 bottles ... or 3 bottles?

I don't know anything about international shipping cost. According to your earlier post, the cost per bottle will be more than $20. Perhaps $30 per bottle? That's about $20 per person(5) for 2 bottles ($50x2) to ship to US.

And there will be additional cost to distribute and ship locally.

That would work for me. However, it'd nice if someone has better idea about the total shipping cost per bottle to get to US.

As I posted before, it'd worth every penny if it worked, but the mileage may possibly vary. Thanks...
