Can everyone email me the following..
Vehicle
Model
VMR wheel style
Size
Colour
4 members have sent their details so far.
You can make multiple choices in case your first choice is not available.
I have the inventory and a few freight quotes.
I will then email the group with the price indication. You then confirm if in or not, so we can get the final numbers. 5 buyers minimum to proceed.
I will also share the inventory with you all, on email so you can make selections.
Offsets for each model will be advised, to assist with the selection.
Email: [email protected]
Thanks

Sadly, I assume due to exchange rate and lack of numbers, the transport options is only to air frieght at like 650USDno shipping....
Well I never even got a price, so could not add myself to the numbers of those accepting ??
Lets just combine our orders and maybe they give us a special airfreight rate.
Prefer to do that anyway instead of waiting weeks for a shipment.

Guys
There are a few issues that we are trying to work around with VMR.
1. Too few orders
2. Pricing can't be advised as it's determined by the number of serious buyers (initially there were 10, but only 5 have said finances are ok to buy wheels). This obviously changes pricing, hence no indications hav been given.
3. Inventory is short at the factory, so VMR trying to put together from other locations
4. VMR do not send small orders by sea, but we're looking at ways of keeping sea freight even if it's 5 sets.
As I've explained to a few others over email, putting together an order to meet everyones requirements, direct from the factory, is not easy.
Buyers from previous group buys will know, there are instances when 9 out 10 buyers requirements are met, and then we wait a month or 2 for production on the 10th set.
Small volumes do not carry weight in getting production done sooner.
As we get better updates from VMR, it will be advised.

Hi Guys,
Cant the order be sent seafreight LCL - well consolidation? I mean 5 sets of wheels should be sufficient enough to send via seafreight. Depending on which country goods are shipped from you nominate a forwarding agent - they check dimensions and weight of the entire order. The Forwarding Agent then checks with other clients if any have cargo for South Africa. If none of the clients have cargo then you co-load with another Forwarding Agent. Stuff all the cargo into a container and ship it off to Durban.
Just my 2 cent :rollsmile:
