Andy,
Should we send a PM to you with names and addresses to forward to Bud at one time? When we call him for payment, he'll know mailing addresses and shipping charges ahead of time. Just a thought.

Pics of a '86-'95 skid...
The holes in the rear can be used for attaching it to a Sonoran Steel IFS truss...

guys, let's set a deadline of April 15th to complete your order. i'll verify, but that should be OK with Bud as well. i don't know that we'll get much more of a discount for 20. he's already cut the price 20% - how much more do you want to cut into this guy's profits? anyway, if you are 100% sure that you will make the purchase by the 15th, then add your name to the list by quoting it and putting yours at the end with the price and discount like everyone else. if you don't add your name, then i assume that you're not THAT serious.

To my wife ... as in the recent Home Depot commercial where the wife runs over the guys gardening equipment:

"The old one finally rusted out. Now I have to go to Budbuilt and buy a new one . . . (turn and walking away) . . Yes! "

Back out??? Why did I buy the Sonoran Steel IFS Brace in the first place besides its brawny good looks and SS reputation? Of course, I was not only overwhelmed by the foregoing but also its ability to mesh with a skid plate when the BudBuilt group buy took form!!


Then again . . . all deserters will be hunted down according to YT groupbuy tradition!

i'm calling Bud later today. i'll let you know how he wants to work it out. i imagine you'll just have to tell him that you're part of this group buy and give him CC and shipping info. as soon as 10 ppl call in with the info, he'll charge the cards for the correct amounts + shipping and send them out.
