Please read ALL the below as important info contained therein
Time for another GB with Proper+! This time its limited to MEMBERS ONLY but looking back through my spreadsheets, the amount some people were ordering, the discount more than covered the meagre £20 cost of membership (or £21 if you pay vai Paypal). Plus you get all the other great benefits like discounted show tickets, discounts on insurance, access to the members area (I've seen it typed that access to the members lounge is worth the price in itself )
Many of you will be aware of these by now, how they work and whats involved but please read ALL this post as there are a few small changes. I'm still doing this for no benefit to myself in my spare time so don't worry if you don't hear from me immediately! The Proper+ site also offers some accessories and clothing so feel free to choose from those as well!
www.itsproper.com is the site to see! They've recently introduced some more cool stuff too.
Using the same system as my previous GB's, decide what stickers, t-shirts, gear knobs, air fresheners etc you want, pick from the drop down menu on the items page the EXACT name, colour and price and pm me or pop in in this thread. If the colour you want is not listed, please don't request it. This causes complications. Also, bear in mind that some items may not be in stock. If this is the case, they let me know and I'll pm you offering alternatives. This happened last time with a couple of shift-knobs.
The way I worked out the postage and charges last time I believe was fair to all: I will take the total order, work out each persons total costs as a percentage of the whole and divide postage, customs charges etc by this. E.g: if your order percentage is 5% of the total order of £1000, and the postage is £50, customs £100 you'll pay a total of £57.50 plus a pound or two to cover my costs of posting the bits to you when they arrive. (Figures there are totally made up and only as an example)
As all payments need to be done via Paypal, you need this facility to participate. Also bear in mind I will be using my own paypal account which will be cleared out before I start accepting payments. Payments into here MUST be submitted using USD as the currency to avoid fluctuations in the exchange rate. That way, if the order is $2560 and I have that in USD in there, all is well. If I have the equivalent in £ on the monday and the order is not finalised and paid until a few days later, the exchange rate may change up or down. If its up, you guys lose out, down and it costs me money to pay for your stuff.
Payments will be as follows:
-1 week before order submitted, all payments for goods and estimated US postage to be received (15th August)
-Upon receipt of customs charge, if it is within my means at the time, I will pay it and send out the goods upon receipt of your % of the total. If it is not, I will need payment from everyone before I can pay the charges.
-Upon receipt of the goods with me, I will package them up in each persons order (Proper+ were great at this last time and seperated everyones order into baggies and gave us all a couple of 1-off stickers designed exclusively for the GB members), get postage costs - a few stickers would be a cost of approx £2 to cover recorded delivery and envelope, stickers, a shift knob and a t-shirt came to around £4. The postage costs (unless you have a large package that needs to be weighed and checked at the post office) will be added onto the customs charge to keep things simple.
Remember I WILL need your address and all payments before I can send the stuff out.
I will let each individual know what their contributions will be at each stage.
Bear in mind the charges involved before jumping in with both feet. The last thing I want is to have paid for items sitting here because someone doesn't want to pay their share of the charges.
The good bit: Last time on the stickers, we received a whopping 30% discount. I have not yet received confirmation of figures but would hope for something similar this time round too. That alone for many was more than enough to cover the costs of customs and postage!
Timescales:
I suggest we keep this open for one month from today. LAST ORDERS MUST BE IN NO LATER THAN 9am MONDAY 15th August. One week after this I will submit the order (need to coallate all the info - last time this was a LOT and took me several hours!) and will keep the thread updated as I receive tracking information. Upon receipt of the goods, I will send them out within a few days. Bear in mind I have a life outside SXOC so it may take a day or two depending on how busy I am and the size of the order!
I will keep this thread updated with new info received or if anyone suggests a better way to do anything, please feel free!
Disclaimer: I will not be held responsible for any errors in the order (not that they made any last time!), neither will I accept responsibility for items lost/missing in the post. I will do everything I can reasonably do to ensure you get your goods in good condition but if they are lobbed over a fence and the dog attacks them or the post office loses them, sorry guys, thats not my fault! Also, if the exchange rate fluctuates more than I expect it to, I may need a small contribution to cover the difference - obviously if it fluctuates the other way I am happy to refund you the difference! www.xe.com will be used as a rough guide to calculate exchange rates - Paypal tends to exchange at a slightly higher rate hence rounding up to the nearest 5p.
Fill your boots guys!!

Haha! My work here is done! New members FTW Make sure you tell your insurance company too now - you might even get a discount Its definitely worth it - look at all the members still paying even though they no longer own 200sx's!
But then we'll hopefully get the 30% discount again - there's a little over half the membership cost already looking at your list. Then minimum postage cost would have been $30 if you did this on your own (the whole reason I started the first GB!) Thats now more than covered your membership fee
Other non-members take note...
I haven't been a member for the last few years as not much time to log on as always working on the sx.......
It will be nice to get on the members section again and this time I won't get kicked off for inappropriate thread starting....
Haha ah well we live and learn lol...
When do you want the money transferred? And when do I get my stickers? lol
Cheers

Haha! I'll start asking for payments after the 15th August - that way I'll have the discount amount and an estimate for US postage. Not possible to do it before then as I won't have all orders and be able to divvy up the costs fairly.
Yeah mate it's understandable and fair... I just keep staring at the stickers on the site and wanting to hold them lol......
When will my membership status be updated????? Filled in a form and paid my rep yesterday and he paid the sxoc.....??????

Haha! Looks like this GB is working in making people pay up membership
Don't worry about putting prices in £ guys - P+ only deal in $ and when I start taking payments, as in my instruction post, you can pay with $ through Paypal. This negates any exhange rate fluctuations and means the money is held in $ in my account while I collect. It would otherwise cause problems - I lost out a little (only about £5 or so) with the first GB as I took money in £ then the exchange rate changed a little before all payments were collected.
