Spear Cores

Max-Gain Sys. is a fiberglass manufacturer acclaimed by a number of veteran Dagorhirrim. On their product list are 8 ft. round fiberglass tubes. For spear cores they have 1" OD tubes with 1/8" thick walls. They weigh 2 lbs. and run $10.00 apiece (+ $2.00 for packaging). If we order 10 cores, at 5 lbs. each (2lbs. + 3 lb. box) shipping will come to $20.50. Of course UPS ground may charge an additional $7.00 handling fee...AND an order of 10 or more gets us a 10% discount.

The total after tax (5%) should look something like $133.88. If I can get even a couple people to split this that would be awesome.

I'm interested if I can spend less than $20, and are you saying 1 inch tubes are $10?

If you order one for me, I could reimburse you.

i'm not sure but i will consider

I figured the tax wrong, the total is actually $120.49. So 6 people would need to chip in $20.08. Assuming we're talking under $20 here.

And yes, each 8 ft. core is $10.00. But add in shipping & handling then tax, and the better deal is to buy in bulk and get the 10% off.

Oh what the hell, I'll throw in 10 bucks. n_n

Just help me make the spear, k?

Sure thing.

This will buy 10 cores, correct? If so, then it would make sense to divide the cost by 10, making it 12.00 per person, per core. or am I missing something in the math here...

so long as 10 people want one

webzor site?

well, it's 12.00 per person, per core, so if one person wants more than one, it'd be 12.00 per core. i.e. 24.00 if I want to go in for 2, 36.00 if I want to go in for 3, and so on. So we don't necessarily need 10 peeps, just enough peeps to need 10 poles.

Also, put me down for one of these. (I will contribute 12.00 for one of the 10 poles)

I'll lay down 12.00 for myself then. I want at least one core to build with.

They are WELL worth it. As spears or large Reds, like a glaive or similar, they are amazing. If you EVER want to be a spear fighter, GET ONE! You will not regret it.

Yeah, I'll definitely pay $12 for one.

Max-Gain Sys.

Let me know when you're gonna order, I'd like one and I know my friend Nate down in Rolla would want one too.

7 buyers. We need 3 more!

Edit: 8 buyers, 2 more to go! Spear CORES NAO

Bump.

We need 2 more buyers...any takers? If not, I'd ask that next week people send me their $12.00 so I can order the cores.

I has question. We order now, cores be here in time for WoTIF, y/n?

if no, then maybe we wait a bit until enough people have enough money.
if yes, then maybe we come up with the extra cash now, and sell the other couple later when peeps has money.

return 0

Who all are buyers atm?

Iohn --2 (Constantine)
Barca --1
Odin --1
Summer --1
Angus --1
Crux --2 (friend)

We order now and we'll need to fork out an extra $3.00 per person.
$120.49 / 8 people = $15.06

well, as it turns out, I've got some money right now, and I'd be willing to buy 3 if it meant they'd get here before war. How long does shipping take on these?

Either way, put me down for 2, since I'm sure I'll use them.

Okay so...
Iohn: $24.10
Barca: $12.05
Odin: $12.05
Summer: $10.00
Angus: $24.10
Crux: $24.10

This means we'd need to scrounge up $14.09 between all of us to put in the order.
And Its UPS ground from Georgia (?) so that means 3-5 days.

I'll put in,say, $5, more, since I'll probably use whatever Iohn and Angus make.
