Albertporter only needs 50

Hey Audiogoners,

Albertporter has made a great offer to coordinate the bulk purchase of cryoed Hubbel outlets. My feeling if it's good enough for Albert's system, it's good enough for mine. But we need more people to participate to make it worth while. Check this post out: http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?hbest&1021587031&read&keyw&zzoutlet

If you don't have time to check out the entire post here is Albert's offer:

"If a group of you want to go together, buy a box or case of outlets, I can get a quantity discount for us for the full cryo treatment. There will be no special packaging or wrappers, but you will have ultimate performance for a fraction of the cost.(This is exactly what I did)."

I spoke with Albert earlier today and he is willing to arrange for the purchase of the outlets in Dallas, have them treated and then probably ship them out Fedex ground. Albert would be doing us all a favor and his only interest is in helping the audio community. Let him know how many you are interested in. I'm in for six (6).

I got a lot of confirming emails today with agreements to send payment to make this purchase.

Those who have not yet responded by email, please do. My response is the same to everyone and you get my address and a copy of the ship rates.

Orders need to be based on prepayment. That way additions (or deletions) will match only what people need and have paid for.

The next issue is when to set as a cut off date.

Set too far in the future, early respondents will wait longer for product. Set too short, mailed payments may not have arrived in time, stranding some Audiogoners who expect to be included.

We need an open vote and agree openly and to all, as to a fair date that payment must be received by me.

Then the project will proceed on a schedule known to everyone !

Albert,

In response to your last post I would feel very comfortable with you setting the cut off date. You will best be able to judge when interest in slowing and it's time to place the order. I know for me, if you said one week or one month, it's OK. You're doing a great service for all of us and I would be surprised if anyone would question your judgement.

So Audiogoner's, do I hear any seconds on letting Albert set the time frame for this project?

Since you called for a vote, I would vote for November 15. That gives everyone a little over a month to get their payment to you and to work out logistics.
