hey guys redzedmikey can get us fuel filters for $20 each... we need 6 guys to be in on this to be able to get it at that price... 1. Chad 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. if we have more interest than 6 people then a part 2 group buy will be created for the next 6 and so forth...
dude, i get valvoline fuel filters for like 18 bucks at the local supercheap matey.. whom ever is giving this "group buy price" is pulling your leg
I am the one arranging this GB - if it goes ahead. $20.00 is the same price as organised in a GB a few years ago, and Valvoline's price to me has not changed. There is no profit in this for myself or Chad. I went to my local Supacheap this morning and Valvoline VF19 fuel filters were $27.99 each. If they are genuinely $18 over there for the same filter, good luck to you. If not, a correction and apology would be appreciated.
27.99 for a fuel filter thats nasty. you eastern staters are getting ripped. i dont think a apology is in order. just stating the prices we get them here in WA
Savings negated by postage - this is true. This is one reason why I haven't continued offering these as a GB, the other is my minimum buy quantity and the relative lack of demand. Mostly Victorians that benefit from my Valvoline GB's for oil and oil filters, though sometimes I stock up for when I go interstate.
and thank you muchly, mikey .. i picked mine up at coona .. and it's filtering finely ....!!!! .. :zlove: :zlove: :zlove:

yep, don't know what happened there .. think that the easter bunny was bouncing a bit early ..lol.....
Has anyone in WA actually been to a Supacheap or similar and verified their price for a Valvoline VF19 fuel filter? If I go to Valvoline to query their price to me and severely embarrass myself with this "$18.00" claim I am going to be mightily pissed off.
I'll ring them today and let you know. At the moment it's only 7:30AM here so can't ring them yet. Cheers, Evan.
I rang 2 supacheaps in Perth. They both said that their price is $28. They also said that I may be able to get a better price on their 20% off days but this still only takes the price to approx $23. Regards, Evan.
Thanks Evan - what I expected. Matches the Supacheap price here in Vic, and they are a national chain. Chad, I have tried running fuel filters as a GB with the oil and oil filters, and the response made it not worth while. I would recommend killing off this GB unless there is a sudden influx of locals wanting to save a bit of money. I will still have Synpower 10W/50 full synth and VO4 oil filters available for as long as I can. Cheers, Mikey.
lol @ all the perth people that commented... thats ok mikey, its not much different in buying it from supercheap i just thought a quick sale and help on the forum would be good...oh well...thanx for ur help appreciated
