Re: Sprint Booster - A "Must-have"!
One more question about shipping. I know the shipping price is included in the purchase ($4.05) So all I have to do is wait for it come without any additional payments etc? If you can repeat the process over again Jody, it will be greatly appreciated. I know its by US Priority mail. When the money is wired to Boulekos, is there anything more we need to do?

sbj,
Nothing else to be done by the participants... except wait for the receipt of your product.
US Parcel Post (for most of the buyers) will deliver your product and maybe a small refund check. Depending upon the Customs/Duty fees.
Cheers!

WOW!
The response to this has been great... even the great in HDDP!
Thanks for letting us know how it's working for yours crossfirefrank! Good to know they just keep on working... maybe they're really made by Timex?

So the price for everyone will be the same ($264.34 + $4.05 = $268.39) this way and it's two day shipping!

And if by some stretch it were a 10 or 20 dollar savings would not be what we would find. I bought one from him yesterday, now I'll be letting you all know how it works out. I agree buyer beware but this is a chance I felt comfortable with. Just because the product comes from Singapore does not mean its a knock off. If you believe that maybe you believe all the other cultural stereo types too. I'm as skeptical and cautious as they come, I assessed this one and feel comfortable. And by the way this attempt at an apology was a lame and one that just wanted to receive sympathy not one that was sincere.
Do you happen to have his direct contact ? I have 26 Mercedes enthusiasts who has committed, placing a deposit. I like to know what his prices are for 26 pieces.

There has been an good discussion on the MBWorld forum regarding the sprint booster. A magazine article was quoted that had some interesting info. Here is the link if any of you are interested:

Re: Sprint Booster - A "Must-have"!
The only concern I have left for this product is what IamFink was going through... (when pressing the kickdown switch from a 45 mph, 55 mph roll). Has anyone else with the booster experienced this?

Re: Sprint Booster - A "Must-have"!
Sorry for not getting this updated last night...
I will be making the wire transfer on Monday the 11th, so the group buy is still open to participation until the end of the 10th.
I have yet to receive payment from a few people (one I know will probably be in tomorrow's mail or via PayPal)... If there is less than five pending I will probably just purchase them myself and payment can be made later.
Current buyer status list...

Some of us here preferred the aggressive mode of response, well others don't. It really depends on your preference...

Re: Sprint Booster - A "Must-have"!
I'm confused... is there another group buy going on? (Yup... just read back farther... DOH!)
I have had no additional buyers pay me today and will be making the wire transfer tomorrow morning.
Thanks to everyone who is participating!

Re: Sprint Booster - A "Must-have"!
Okay... Group purchase's wire transfer has been completed. Total for 33 buyers 6265 EUR. At the exchange rate from my bank ($1.3182 = 1.0000 EUR) that is $8,258.32 or $250.25 each (bank fee included I think).
Mr. Boulekos includes their shipping and other fees in his quote, so the only amount left to come out is the USPS shipping and packaging for everyone. (Unless there is a duty/customs cost).
I'll post again when I receive the units.
