Post subject:  2008 Group Buy

When talking to other AD's PLEASE DO NOT tell them which dealer is doing the group buy!!! This is important!

1. The group buy is STILL in full effect with many people buying so far. (25 at last count!)

2. Yes, the prices are amazing and apply to all Breitlings.

3. This is from an AD (Authorized Dealer) so you get ALL of the documents, boxes etc that you get when you walk into an AD to purchase.

4. The have asked we don't list pricing or who they are on the forums but I would be happy to provide you with a contact name, number and email at the AD who will help you. I have a price list handy and can give you an accurate number as well.

5. We have new news for international shoppers, PM me if you live outside the US and still want to buy through the group buy. (Requires a verified paypal account)

6. If you live in California let me know your pricing may be slightly different.

7. I do not know for sure yet when the end date is but this deal isn't forever so shop accordingly.

8. All of the Super Avenger Limited's have been spoken for. (yes they were discounted a bit as well).

9. TO BE ELIGIBLE FOR THE GROUP BUY YOU NEED TO HAVE BEEN A MEMBER OF THESE FORUMS FOR AT LEAST 90 DAYS AND HAVE AT LEAST 10 POSTS. OTHERWISE I CAN'T HELP YOU.

10. There isn't an electronic price list I can send you. Please stop asking for a full list. I was asked not to post it publicly.

11. Please DON'T PM me any more, instead, please send an email to the address at the bottom of this post. I spoke to admin about this and this is the best way for me to keep track of incoming and outgoing messages without size restrictions (I'm using outlook). Please make sure you include your name, address, phone number and what unit you are interested in, as well as your screen name on the forums. Please enter subject line "GROUP BUY"


I will make edits and updates to this first post so please refer to this first. If you have additional questions I will be happy to help you through PM's. If you know the item number in the 2008 chronolog that will help a bunch =]

Important: I was asked what I benefit from all this. Money wise, I haven't made a cent off of helping out. What ever amount you have paid for your Ling, I have paid for mine. I have 3 receipts for further review if need be. That said there are a couple of distinct perks I've had.

1 - The AD has kicked down various items like a wallet, pens, backpack etc. Some of these I gave away to a couple of the local breitling guys I hang out with. Two of them I offered to and sold to members here. One went to the UK, the other to Norway. I think they are both happy with it. That said the AD did not give me these out of payment for services or time but more out of appreciation because they understand how many hours of time goes into doing this. I know this is long winded but website building goes in cycles based on trade shows and when my niche clientele needs to display new products online. That said it's slow right now evidenced by my post whoring ;) besides this keeps me busy and out of trouble as I usually frequent local bars, gentleman's clubs, casinos, card rooms and other places of (ehem) debauchery that is rampant in my back yard called Southern California :twisted: .

2 - The second perk was to get dibs on the Limited Edition SA. I got a small discount on it as well though not as much as I would have liked. I didn't bump anyone from the list, I just happened to be the first to ask for it and put a deposit down, so it was mine to snag anyway! That said I may or may not actually buy it :? Driver has been talking me out of it :P

Here was my first purchase through the group buy:

Edit, added some more purchasers... it's hard to keep track of it all but you get the picture. ;)

The other thread started to get a bit diluted and I realized from the 28 PM's I've received today that some of the info might be hard to find so I decided to start another thread on it.

8. All of the Super Avenger Limited's have been spoken for. (yes they were discounted a bit as well).
