some interesting information was brought to my atention on taurus car club (where the very same interest thread is posted) here is what I found out.

from TCCA "jedhead"
Be aware of the stuff on ebay. I know someone who bought a set of Tokico's. Two of them were already blown. He is having problems with warranty because Tokico sold them as a lot of shocks without warranty to the vendor who sold them on Ebay. There is a reason why prices may be low.

from innovative (the suplier for the GB)
That is correct about the Tokicokos. The warranty is only valid if the items are purchased through an authorized dealer such as my shop. I actually just got Rick's (RX3) Tokico's warrantied for him. They were a few years old and Tokico still took care of it.

I'll see what kind of deal I can get on the struts Tuesday when they're open again.

so the updated pricing on the struts should be posted on tuesday or wed I will definately keep you guys informed.

this is a reply I got a few days ago and they are updated prices from the manufacture, I know the price went up on the struts but I have no controll of this i'm just a messanger that was trying to help the community.

OK so the final pricing as of now is:
195 shipped for the intrax springs - if we get 10+
469 shipped for the tokicos - if we get 10+

don't ask why the struts went up I don't know, and no there is no discount for getting both since the parts are from different manufactures.

I sent a PM to bissy and havent gotten a reply yet on the GB so i'll send another.

i've sent out 2 emails out to bizzy and havent got a reply yet is there someone else I should be contacting ti start a GB??? TCCA said i'm ready to rock but I want both sites to start the GB the same day to prevent a conflict of interest situation.

the plan as of now is to do a 10+ GB so if we don't get 10 people I will try the GB again in the spring when more people are ready but I think we can get 10 people between here and TCCA

again my question is "i've sent out 2 emails out to bizzy and havent got a reply yet is there someone else I should be contacting ti start a GB???"

Not that I'm aware of..... I think I remember her saying once that she got tons of spam/junk e-mails and deleted the majority of everything. Because of this, you might try PM'ing her....

Due to an overactive spam program (I get over 1000 emails daily and as a general rule 95% of them are spam) I have decided that sellers will be allowed to place their own ads. It is my hopes that less will be lost in cyberspace as a result.

Follow the directions to place your ad.

:::::Step 1:::::

Select the proper amount. $15 for parting car ads, $10 for whole cars, $5 for 5 parts. If you have more than 5 parts to sell contact me, we have some rate options that you can take advantage of that will make it more affordable for you and still remain beneficial for the forum as well. Sellers who wish to start a group buy must contact me for pricing information.

I read that already and I followed the instructions :) I pm'ed (2 times) her I didn't send email because of the junk email comment, I don't mean this in a hatefull way at all i'm just wondering if there is somebody else I could be contacting to save time and get this going.
