Having been a member of MR for a little bit now I can say the following. Jim is a stand up guy. He breaks his hump to do this group buy for the members here. Running group buys are thankless for the most part because you need to lay out $$ and keep track of everything and store it until people pick their stuff up. I remember last years group buy and Jim opened his freezer to show me all of the stuff and I remember going back after the swap and there were still a lot of stuff in there that people didn't pick up. But Jim was storing it and for some Jim put out the cash for that he never got paid back for.
How can I say this without saying anything inflammatory? ( I hate having to ask myself this question because it usually backfires :lol2: )
If you want in on the group buy get in on it, but if you're trying to prove a point by posting, or you think something about the group buy isn't right, PM the mods (or Josh directly) or go to PM's with the members you want to reach out and touch.
Demon, I don't know you but I have seen things like this start before next thing you know group buys from salt companies get messed up for us and one of us and our vendors gets screwed. If that's your motive it's a good way to lose MR members as your customers. I personally went to a store that pulled this on us once, had them put together a nice sized order of dry goods, equipment and live stock then told them I wasn't interested in spending my money at their establishment because I knew I could get better prices online and then I walked out. The owner was speechless. I got in my truck and drove away with a :biggrin: If it's not your motive then so be it. My suggestion to you is to read things carefully and ask around before jumping to any conclusions.
Like I said before Jim is a stand up member of MR and wouldn't screw anyone here at MR. That's my 2 cents.
