Exactly what it says, Gauging interest prior to putting in the form to do a group buy. This is directly quoted from the website:
"1. Because group buys are likely to qualify for free shipping, just tell your members to use the free shipping option "Group Buy". We will package all of their orders seperately, and mark them by the individuals name. So all you will have to do on pickup day is hand them the bags with their name on them. If for some reason your group buy does not qualify for free shipping, we will bill each of your members a pro-rata difference for the shipping costs. It will be based on total amounts of their orders.This has never been a problem to date.
2. Have your members mention the club or organization of the group buy in the note field during checkout.
It is that simple. Just post that you want to do a group buy at the website/forum/club you belong to, tell them to do their shopping here, and pay here and when the deadline arrives for us for that week's shipment all of those in are good to go. No need to front money, no need to add up totals, or answer emails, or talk to unsure shoppers. We will even send you a template post to help you explain the rules of the group buy to your members. "
The website is www.reefcleaners.org , go take a look around and check out prices, also note that there will be free shipping if we break $150 in total purchases....my last purchase there was over $50 by itself and that was with a 30% discount, The list of my purchase is here: http://www.bostonreefers.org/forums/showpost.php?p=736670&postcount=4
