Bulk Reef Supply order

[Frenchie2]

Is anyone buying something at Bulk Reef Supply now or in the near future? I'd like to get some screening to make up tank tops but the shipping is twice the cost of the screen. I just thought if I go with somebody on an order, I could share the shipping. Please advise. Thanks much!

I could use a couple of things from them...

Never ordered from BRS before.

I was thinking of making an order, but again the cost of shipping is great without a larger order......but can we get them sent to each person or one order....I am thinking one order..so it may not work for me to be added in. I have never done a group order before. Brad

yeah, I imagine this is for locals only...
I would be there would be enough interest in a Calgary group order at some point though...

This is off the BRS site:

We have a unique way of doing Group Buy's at BulkReefSupply.com. Instead of requiring groups to place a single large order we give each group buy participant individual access to our lowest prices. There are no purchase quantity or order size requirements. Each participant gets the lowest prices even if they only buy one item. This removes the need to organize one big bulk order, collect all the payments, and distribute the order. And this also means Group Buys at BulkReefSupply are not limited to local clubs! That's right, because orders are shipped separately group buys can involve people from all over the country and Canada.


I am definately in!!

I was part of a group order like this one. You still pay individual shipping.

Do you recall what kind of a deal you got?

Yes, but normally, once you factor in the discount of the group buy, the shipping isn't all that much.

The group buy makes the prices of almost everything on the site cheaper. So, as long as your ordering more than one item, you will save enough to negate the shipping fees. And it is delivered to your door

Plus, who ever organizes it gets 2000 points (equal to 20$)

I think mainly we are looking to save on shipping with one big order rather than have several small orders, each subject to their own sihipping charges.

If I have to pay for all of the shipping cost, count me out.

last time I was part of the group order I did not find that big of a discount on pricing. In fact prices on most items stayed the same.
