    CANCELLED BY BERRY BULLETS - Group Buy: NWI Berry Bullets & Accessories

    [STRIKE]WHAT
    Berry Plated Bullets and accessories for reloading

    WHEN
    Order will be placed SAT, 23 FEB 2013.
    Money due NO LATER than FRI, 22 FEB 2013, unless we reach our goal of 62,500 bullets then we will close earlier.
    Cash or money order unless you make prior arrangements with Jedi

    WHERE
    Order will be shipped via pallet at a cost of $100 for the group and will be delivered to: 1101 Cigar Lounge, 1101 W US Highway 30, Schererville, IN 46375.
    THIS IS WHERE PICK-UP FOR THE BULLETS WILL BE AT.


    PRICES
    Prices can be found at this website
    B&B Reloading Supplies

    The prices on the website for the PLATED PISTOL BULLETS are correct on the webpages. If you click on the PayPal buy buttons you will get a lower price which is INCORRECT!

    Prices for plated riffle and hard cast bullets is INCORRECT on the website both on the webpages and via the PayPal button. He is sending me the correct prices for those shortly.

    PRICE DROP SECURED FOR GROUP BUY
    Take $4 off the website price on box of 250
    Take $6 off the website price on boxes of 500 or 1000


    HOW SHIPPING PRICE WILL BE DETERMINED
    We need at least 13K in bullet orders in order for the $100 shipping price to make financial sense.

    Formula
    ($100 / total bullet order) x (bullets ordered by you)

    Example;

    Luke orders 1K of bullets
    Leia orders 7K of bullets
    Anakin orders 10K of bullets

    Total bullets = 18K

    Luke's shipping cost = (100/18,000) x 1000 = 5.55
    Leia's shipping cost = (100/18,000) x 7000 = 38.89
    Anakin's shipping cost = (100/18,000) x 10000 = 55.55

    Shipping is FREE **IF** we get 100K or more in bullet order.

    TIME-FRAME
    Orders take typically 4 to 6 weeks to get delivered. So we are looking at a late MAR to mid-APR 2013 time-frame for delivery. I will update this once we get the order ready.

    VOUCH FOR VENDOR
    I and a few other INGO members have ordered from the vendor in the website above and he is a legit vendor. He does massive group buys for VA gun owners. You can read more about my experience with him here:
    https://www.indianagunowners.com/fo...-bullets_from_b_and_b_reloading_supplies.html

    HOW TO PLACE ORDER
    Post in this thread your callsign and how many and what caliber & type you want based on the website link above.

    For example:

    Jedi
    9mm 147gr RN @ 1K

    FINAL NOTE
    You do not have to be in NWI to order but the bullets will be shipped to NWI so you will have to pick them up from here.

    I'm in!
    9mm RN, 115 gr, @1,000
    .45 ACP RN, 185 gr, @1,000


    I may amend this number as well! Is anybody else ordering primers and powder?

    The link you provided is offering free shipping. Is there a discount from their posted price for this group buy ?

    Read it more carefully, the free shipping is to their distribution centers for pick up at their centers.

    It reads:
    We currently have distribution points in Richmond, VA, Fredericksburg, VA, and Fairfax, VA. Shipping to these locations is free of charge. For a shipping quote to all other locations, please Contact Us.

    His armslist site says he has powder and primers if so
    6K Winchester small pistol
    4K Winchester small rifle
    4# Hodgdon HS-6
    8# Hodgdon BL-C2 or CFE223

    I will ask him about the powder/primer. I do know he sells it but do not believe that the $100 for a pallet drop shipment would cover the hazmat fee. I do recall a conversation with him about waiving the hazmat fee if the quanity of powder/primer was big enough. By big enough we were talking very big thousand lbs plus if Irecall. Need to dig my emails about it and see what he says now.

    Can you give us the link to the powder/primer prices please

    FYI
    Prices on the website are the latest prices.
    However his "paypal buy now buttons" do not reflect the correct prices.

    We CAN combine shipping of anything on the website so the ammo boxes and reloading accessories can also be purchased and shipped in this order.

    He will be sending me a list of all current prices tonight.
    Primer/Powder I hope will be on that list but not sure.

    Jedi

    Here is the link
    ARMSLIST - For Sale: B&B Reloading Supplies
    he does not give the full price list on powders just that you need a minimum of #10 -- got that covered and min of 10K on primers and moves up in 5K increments that he did put pricing out there. Again there maybe a Haz mat charge since we are not picking it up but if I can get the powder/primers I need it.

    UPDATE: Prices, Location, Pallet Size & Packaging

    Just got off the phone with Bryan (owner of the website we are doing the group buy with).

    --PRICES--
    First to prices since I know everyone wants to know about that.
    The prices on the website for the PLATED PISTOL BULLETS are correct on the webpages. If you click on the PayPal buy buttons you will get a lower price which is INCORRECT!

    Prices for plated riffle and hard cast bullets is INCORRECT on the website both on the webpages and via the PayPal button. He is sending me the correct prices for those shortly. AT THIS TIME THIS DOES NOT AFFECT ANY OF YOU EXCEPT ME. :(

    --LOCATION--
    Shipping us a pallet for $100 (Free is we order 100K+ in bullets) will be done via a company called fastenal. There website is Home | Fastenal and what occurs is our pallet will get to one of their distribution centers.

    The closest ones to me are

    Highland Location
    2246 Industrial Drive, Unit D
    Highland, IN 46322

    East Chicago Location
    1301 W. Chicago Ave.
    East Chicago, IN 46312

    Crown Point Location
    1003 Summit Street Unit # 3
    Crown Point, IN 46307

    So the pallet arrives there. We have to pick it up. Fastenal has forklifts to put the pallets into our vehicle(s). Bryan said any 1/2 tone pickup can handle 1 pallet which would have NO MORE than 1,000 lbs.

    HELP: I'm going to need some help picking up this pallet and taking it to either my house and/or Cigar lounge for distribution.

    --PALLET SIZE--
    Bryan said that a pallet can handle no more than 1,000 lbs. His last shipment of bullets was 1 million bullets and that came on 8 pallets. So 125,000 bullets is the MAX we can order on one pallet. Melensdad and my concern is moving that many bullets so I think for this 1st group buy no more than 50% of a pallet (1/2 a pallet) we should buy. That puts us at 62,500 bullets. We are currently at 24,500.

    --PACKAGING--
    The good news is that the bullets will come "pre-packaged" so to speak.
    Meaning if we order 3K bullets in 9mm we will get three 1K boxes in total.
    So if Jedi orders 2K of 9mm and Clif orders 1K of 9mm when the pallet arrives we will only have 3 boxes of 9mm (2 for jedi and 1 for clif). As such you if order you can ONLY order what the website has in terms of quantities. I do not want to have to open up a box and have to count and split orders for members. If members want to do this on the side that is fine but I won't.
