Hi,

I have been watching this "group buy" thread and do not see what net cost was. For the record, I purchased set of 19" for my Vermont 997 direct from FUCH in November. Easy buy with 6 day delivery to my Florida home. These will be mounted with Michelin PS2's when I return to Vermont. I would like to compare landed "group buy" to mine and will post my landed if responded to.

Mine was a about 13% plus and simple on-line order. Six day delivery from payment. Word is, Porsche might be throwing in towel and agreeing to FUCHS exclusive and pull their fake, cast off the market. That is why I and others got it done.

Stay tuned!

My just arrived today as well!!! Beautiful. And light. Can't wait to get them mounted. The impending snow storm may put a damper on things for a few more days. Ugh....

This was the epitome of how a Group Buy should work. Thanks again Don!!!

Per my invoice, I stand corrected. I actually got a 16% discount. Not sure who benefited from waiting for group buy process when you can go on-line and simply order.

Several have sent me PMs and agree that this "group purchase" was very unusual by not posting price, etc. Hope I offered a valued and better experience that warrants individual direct, on-line purchase from FUCHS.

I see no discount on your invoice. Your invoice does show that wheel prices 10 months ago were 16% lower than what they are posted now. My invoice does show the 15% discount from today's posted price.

Hard to compare prices that may have increased. Exchange rates may also be different than 10 months ago.

Not 10 months ago! November 2013 and on-line retail has not changed. Mine are 19" and invoice is net with 16 % discount. Sounds like you have problem with your group purchase.

Get over it!

So 3 to 4 months instead of 10.

Problem? I have no problem. Half of my post count isn't dedicated to one thread about a group buy.

Yes, and I, like the majority of listers, only respond with new, pertinent info as opposed to the relatively few who dominate with superfluous posts. Post your invoice.

Signing off.
