Group Salt Buy?
 

Anyone interested in a Group Salt Buy?

I need around 14 pails of Kent salt, anyone interested in going in together on a pallet?

how much will a pail be around? are they 200gallon buckets? or 160gallons?

Where are you buying from?

Kent comes in 200g buckets.

Not sure where I'll buy from yet, whoever is cheapest I guess. It's just salt right?

I imagine they will be right around the $50 mark.

Depending on whom your purchasing from, I'd probably be in for a pail!

i'll get a pail as well. no rush
i'm also looking for a pump. so let me know where your getting it.

Why does this happen right after I just bought a pail? *laugh*.

I MIGHT get another pail, depending on the price.

So that's 16-17 pails. We need 24 for a pallet. Anyone else interested?

Were are we buying from?

I might be able to get you guys a deal, i will let you all know more tonight

I wasn't going to find a definite source unless we actually have met the demand for a pallet. Otherwise it's just a waste of time.

Cool, sounds good.

I think more people would join in if there was a definit source/price?

Well the pail I'm willing to purchase isn't a for sure yes, because there are particular vendors/stores that I won't spend my money in. As soon as you know, I'll give you a definate answer on if I'm in or not.

I'd be in for six 200g pails of Kent.

Well that puts us very close to a pallet. I'll start searching out a source and price.

so whats the status of the Group Salt buy?

Sorry, I've been trying to find time to get some prices but I'm in the middle of a 7 day, 84hr stretch of work. If someone else has time to look around for prices that would be cool, otherwise I should be able to have something figured out next week.

Alright so I'm trying to get this inline now that I have a few days off.

How does $56.50/pail sound? Shipped & Tax included.

This would be drop shipped from directly from Kent.

Almost sounds too good to be true, but sounds kind of good :) Is that in Canadian or US dollars? Who would the shipper be? To what location would they ship?

Canadian Dollars. Scott @ Island Pet Zone is who is arranging it through Kent. If we still have enough people then I will call him and work out the finer details.

Here's the tricky part. I don't live in Edmonton. So to get it drop shipped to me, would be probably more expensive in shipping, as I'm in a small rural town. Things would probably be much easier if someone in the city would be able to have it dropped at their place instead. There probably won't be too many pickups, as I'd be taking 16 pails myself.

I'm not sure who the shipper would be, but I'll make sure there won't be any additional charges such as brokerage. $56.50 total is what I want to pay.

Anyone willing to store a pallet of Kent for a few days?

At that price, I'd buy 2 200g pails.

i'm still in for 1 pail

I'm still in for six 200g pails. Might take more pails if you fall short of the full pallet.

Never heard of Island Pet Zone. Where are they located?

Would like to volunteer to store the pallet of salt, only we live in a condo and have no place to store it. Any other volunteers?

I will take two pails

Island Pet Zone is in Duncan, B.C.

I don't think we'll be short on the pallet, but we do need someplace for it to be shipped to...

Though I'm good for salt (still got 6 fr BA, Boxing Day), if you want, can drop of at my work. We've got a warehouse, forklift and a shipper/receiver 8-4/M-F. I live not that far from work so could distribute one evening or on the weekend.

Awesome, I think that would work.

Mark,

Sounds good to me. In what general location is the warehouse? Thanks :)

I can do IO for $48 a bucket on large orders as well if anyone is interested?

Is that price for the 200g pails?

salt
 

if you can do oi for that price i am in!

Will check but i think i am only talking about the 160gal buckets, not sure, going to check - will know tommorow

Location is in east Edmonton (9345-49 Street) a few blocks south east of the Capilano Mall, north of the Journal Newspaper building.

I'm going to phone this afternoon and arrange the Kent buy. I'll post details as soon as I get them.

If you get IO, I would be in. As a bonus, the skids could be stored in my garage as well.

For 160g pails of IO to be competitive in price with the $56.50 200g pails of Kent, the IO price would have to be $45.20 including shipping and GST. Just thought you folks would like to know that.

If the IO pails are 200g, you're getting a fantastic deal :)

IO, is not something I want to use...

Is it too late to get 2 pails of Kent?
