This group buy is essentially closed. I am now out of regular main packs that do not require repair. I'll reopen this thread when I asses my inventory of packs that will be sold as "blemished" or repaired.
Packs (and most all other stuff) can still be bought through the regular classifieds ads I have.
I receive possession of them Friday evening 12/21/12 but they will need sorted, possibly cleaned and who knows what else even though they were classed as in good shape. You are in no obligation to act, or otherwise contact me until the packs are in but I wanted to go ahead and start this thread so you have the option to if you want. Also so you can see how it is all playing out.
**I bought 250 packs but I'm assuming that there will be 200 bags in good working condition. Once they are in my hands I'll adjust the actual number of bags available. Only if their is a number of significantly better or worse bags in the mix will I adjust the price, and the adjustment will be for the outlying bags and result in zero difference in the total $ amount of the buy. The price of the "good working condition" bags will remain the same. Basically I'm making the assumption that at least 200 of the 250 will fall in that category so we can get things rolling. (Point: no change in income, just trying to make it fair.)
The group buy is for ILBE main packs that includes their lid and waist belts.
COST: (drum roll please)
$22.50 per pack, cash or check (see second post if you are considering using a check!)
$22.50 x # of packs + 2.5% if using credit card (cc), ftf, that I swipe.
$22.50 x #of packs + 3.5% if using c.c., # given by PM or otherwise not a swipe.
$22.50 x #packs + 2.9% paypal email removed put your screen name in the comments and confirm a final price with me via PM prior to sending it please.
Shipping and handling:
$0 ftf or through the INGO supply chain.
1-2 packs $25 anywhere in the state
3-4 packs $30 anywhere in the state
If you are getting any "other stuff" (see my other classifieds ads) I'll have to calculate this separately but usually can be added to same box so same price.
NOTE on inventory: I've given up on an an accurate count for inventory. I keep finding packs that go to the repair pile, and repair some to put back in circulation. Plus some folks show up FTF and get more or less than originally marked down for. My inventory system now consists of: When I'm out, there are no more. The list below is kept accurate in terms of the color designation but not the quantities.
From the group buy feeler thread:
red = out, Blue = I've heard from, Green = paid, black = no longer in my possession (shipped, picked up FTF or by someone) invisible ink = you are not on the list. I have a more detailed spread sheet going for my records and this list has less priority so it may not be exactly correct in quantities. The color information should, however, be correct.

The list would go on from here but we are WAY past what this GB will service. I WILL be doing this again and likely in the very near future so people on the alternate status will keep their place in line for future group buys. I'm assuming their will be 200 bags in good working condition. The price is based on the economy of scale as if there are 250 bags. I've divided the price among all 250 bags so if their are some that are not I'll eat that. With the add on items having profit I'll be OK with that risk.
The number next to your name is the larger number mentioned in the feeler thread. Adding up the smaller number of packs people alluded to wanting to buy, the 200 pack cut off is at Gidalti. People below that name are in an alternate status. Nobody on the list is committed to anything, you are not backing out of a deal by replying "no, I changed my mind" but if you are above "the Gidalti line" I need to hear from you. This line was based on a conservative estimate, for example people that said they would take 3-5 bags were considered to take 3 for the sake of guessing where the cutoff would be but marked as 5. They are not being held to 3 but are being limited to 5. I had to find a balance of fair and practical.
Packs will not leave my possession without payment.
Once I get a PM or post IN THIS THREAD from you that states "I am sending payment for x#bags" I'll change your color to blue.
Once I get payment I will turn your name and # of bags green.
Once I hear that you don't want to participate I'll put a 0 (zero) for the # of actual bags buying. That way as I hear from people, the folks farther down the list can anticipate whether there are going to be bags this time around.
SO, if you are Gidalti, or your name is above his, please post in this thread or PM me the number of main packs you want, and if you want any of the other stuff, and how you want to pay. If you don't want to participate please still PM me so I know I can start offerinng to people below you in the list.
