I might be interested in splitting a gross of light phosphor bronze with someone.

I would if they are 80/20 EXP's but it seems everyone else likes the phosphors better.

We will be able to get the EXP's as well. Same as last time.

I would do a 1/4 gross of medium phosphor bronze. Just don't need more than that this year.

Edit: If that quantity is not worth fooling with then no big deal.

I'd split some EXP-16s with someone

I'd be interested in the remainder

Guess we're good for a gross then

Yep

Assuming they are around 2.50ish a set, i would go for 1/3-1/2 gross pb lights in Seattle if anyone else wants to go in around here. How much more are exp? I would also get 1 or 2 doz mediums if possible.

I'll split 1/2 a gross of exp-16s with you. I'm in Ballard weekly...

Not sure about only getting exp yet, but will consider. Idealy I would like a mix of light, med and light exp if we can get a few like minded peep.

Would there be anyone in the Coastal BC neighbourhood who would be interested in splitting a gross of medium and light?

I will be in for something phosphor bronze for sure. At least a gross of lights.

Thanks Lance!

How do u do a group buy when the type of strings is all over the map?

I think last time, a gross of one kind was that requirement.

Ok. What was the typical cost per set?

I think around 2.5 a set for the regulars. Not sure about the coated strings. Once enough people show interest, Lance will probably give the details.

So, tell me about these EXP coated strings. Is this similar to Elixr?

So I think we have enough interest. Ive been letting this thread steep a little and wait to see what happens.
I will contact Daddario and get firm pricing on a bulk buy. All orders that are split will be shipped from me to one person, you can
split the order.


More later!

It may be helpful for those like me who are unsure how many sets are in a gross to have an idea. I may be able to coax a few locals to join me then.

Thanks!

Good point Doc. We've done the bulk string buy 3 or 4 times and I keep thinking everybody just knows how it goes. My bad
Here is the info from last time. I suspect the pricing will be VERY close to the same.

A gross is 144 sets and that is the MINIMUM order. You can pair off with others and split them up your selves if you like but I will only be shipping out by the gross.

THIS IS FOR PB LIGHTS PB MEDIUMS and EXP 12-53 ONLY.


Here are the requirements.
You must order at least 1 gross or 144 sets.
You can split them among your selves but for me, I will only ship by the
gross and to one address per order.

PRICE IS 2.50 per set or 360.00 per gross (144 sets) for PB's
3.10 per set or 446.00 per gross (144 sets) for EXP 12-35's

Shipping will be billed separately.

Assuming a gross of one particular kind. Is that right?

I'd like to go in on some EXP's with anyone else who is interested. I'd probably want some regular PB's as well.
