hackerace Posted December 1, 2004 Report Share Posted December 1, 2004 I'm a little confused as usual ??? What will the price be on December 5th? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn_Silva Posted December 2, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2004 It's appearing that we don't have the interest in the gears to make this GP a reality. We need to decide upon a date that will work for the interested parties. People, please speak up and let me know if your serious or not, otherwise I will put this on the back burner until a later date...

Funky Phil Posted December 2, 2004 Report Share Posted December 2, 2004 Its probably best to shoot for something like mid Jan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pure_insanity Posted December 3, 2004 Report Share Posted December 3, 2004 so just how many people are there interested? if there isnt enough people interested, i may go ahead and get one anyways, there isnt enough price difference to hold out for more people to drop the price. i aint sweating 10$ do you have any already made up ? i can paypal at any time.

starquestPilot Posted December 3, 2004 Report Share Posted December 3, 2004 I'm ready right now - just tell me where to send the money... Grant: If you want, we can combine yours and mine - probably cost about the same to ship both sets in one box... Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn_Silva Posted December 3, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2004 I am currently working on the gears, although I think I will only do up 5 or so at this time, as the demand does not warrant a complete production run. They will be complete within the week. Take care Shawn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pure_insanity Posted December 3, 2004 Report Share Posted December 3, 2004 yea mike we can do that. send them to my house or yours? and whose paypal you want to use. ill send you a p.m. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dcrasta Posted December 12, 2004 Report Share Posted December 12, 2004 Whats the story on this GP?? The price is 205 so this discount isnt that deep.. Im looking for one now but my $$ is tight enough that I can wait. I was hoping we could see a GP for about 170 shipped ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn_Silva Posted December 13, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2004 You get 50+ people serious and we'll talk about $170 shipped. Take care Shawn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dcrasta Posted December 14, 2004 Report Share Posted December 14, 2004 Well, im sure there is an incredible amount of effort and time to make these gears, and since you have no competition you can price this wherever you want and someone that needs it will buy it, but Im not really seeing the 'discount' . Maybe thats why so many people are 'interested' Mark me as 'interested' but the price is too high. Free shipping ?? whats shipping 10 bucks? Let me know when you adjust the price.

Shawn_Silva Posted December 14, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2004 If you check back in the GP section you will see I have sold over 70 of these gears and never had a complaint on their price. Dr No Racing makes an adjustable gear as an option and it's over half the price. Maybe you can ask how many run his gear and order one yourself? For the people that understand the advantages of the StarConquer Industries adjustable cam gear and the quality it offers you, understand why the price is more than the competition. Your welcome to read more here ; http://starconquer.com/adjustable_cam_gear.htm I think the lack of demand this time around is due to x-mas just around the corner. If your not interested in the product, please go elsewhere, you do have options... Take care Shawn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caliber308 Posted December 15, 2004 Report Share Posted December 15, 2004 I have read Dcrastas comment and Shawns response. I think what Dcrasta is trying to say is most of the time on a Group Purchase the price for a part is less expensive than the normal selling price. Im sure its a quality part but in Dcrastas and my way of thinking a Group Purchase is a discounted price ??? ??? ??? ??? Thanks, CALIBER 308 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dcrasta Posted December 15, 2004 Report Share Posted December 15, 2004 OK thanks for reminding me about Dr No's : gear (no offense to anyone..) I really want one of those gears man you do make a quality part. No doubt I will have to put the beer money in a coffee can until I can get one I was just trying to see if you would make a better deal for us (it is Xmas heheh) but no worries Im sure you charge what you charge for a reason and its a fair price for a high quality part. I hope to have one soon Merry Xmas.. :-[ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn_Silva Posted December 15, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2004 The last two GP's we reached over 20 members and that equates to $175 price tag due to the free shipping. I appreciate your kind words on the product, it just takes alot of lathe and mill work to fabricate these, as well as the materials involved. For any of the other interested parties I have 5 completed gears ready to ship. If you would like to purchase, please send Paypal payment to starconquerindustries@shaw.ca Take care Shawn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kev_rm Posted December 15, 2004 Report Share Posted December 15, 2004 i have the ebay gear, it's crap. it's basically a stock gear (which costs about $30) with the pin hole bored out and a set of SOFT aluminum offset bushings which last about 5K miles max.
