And just like that, no point to buying. Unless they are offering at least 15% off every item.

it's pricey to ship from BRS I don't think that's news to most. In my case i have always used their chemicals and want to continue doing that even tho it is expensive. I trust the product =) Getting a nice discount and ordering 5g pails helps ease that pain.

And I think the discount comes out to something like 22% off in the case of the bulk chems. I normally get 11% off as a regular purchaser since I am what BRS calls a 'preferred member'. I think it is still policy there that as soon as you participate in one of these buys you achieve preferred status.

You must not do much bulk chemical buying.

There is no place in Canada that reliably offers high quality chemicals in bulk.
Even with the shipping, prices are comparable even when you can find it offered up here.
When I order from BRS, I can place the order and forget about it. I know it will show up.
I don't wonder what's happening with my order.

BRS mistakenly initiated the group buy starting today. Everyone is free to order starting today but I've been told they will resubmit the group buy next week as well.
