Bro I was a math major and manage money for living so I know how to add and I get what you are saying. But your not understanding any of us. The post says $365 plus shipping. Which means that the price for the diffuser is $365 and shipping is unknown because of its dependence on shipping location. The post doesn't say $400 shipped or anything like it so where are you getting that figure?! You are just making up your own thing. Also you aren't even participating so what is the issue? Because all the members that are participating perfectly understand how the shipping and pricing works. If you want to participate you have to wait until the next batch.

Not to add any fuel to this skirmish but there was another group buy about a year ago where the negotiated price was $350 + shipping. The list price for the diffuser at that time was $550. The current list is $660. So, the group price was about 64% of list last year and this group buy price is about 55% of list.

Now we can go back to being friends.......

Thanks again Chicho and VIPclk320.

Glad someone knows simple arithmetic.....Mr Very important clk320 doesn't understand that $400 shipped is less than $365 without shipping. That's great he was a math major, maybe it would be wise to invest in a calculator. I'm not trying to be part of this group buy as I was part of the first one. I just commented that the first one was cheaper and wanted members to actually save on a group buy. Then Mr very important clk320 acted like he started this thread

Ok sir please re-read what I've been telling you, there is no mention of $400 shipped on this group buy. You keep saying $400 shipped is cheaper. No *****! And we keep asking you there is no where on this group buy that mentions $400 shipped. Here are the following recommendations for you:

1. Before you throw out something create a point of reference, in this case you should have started by saying that "in the first group buy it was $400 shipped" not "I thought it was $400 shipped". Clearly none if us where s part of the first one so we don't know what you are talking about.

2. Read the thread before responding.

3. Before you come at me saying you are trying to help members save money understand that there is nothing in this for me and I didn't even start this group buy. I'm simply helping everyone get this group buy out if the goodness of my heart by adding extra work to my already busy schedule.

4. I don't know when the first group buy was but cost if material has gone up. Gas prices has gone up which in turn means freight and shipping has gone up.

I'm going to leave it at this as I have already wasted enough time on this matter and don't wish to argue any further. Have a great evening.

P.S. it's a CLK55. I converted it from 320 to a 55. : )

From 660$ to 365$ Plus shipping Vs 550$ to 400$ shipped.

I Think The difference is pretty clear which one is better plus as VIPClk320 said cost of material has gone up. Gas prices has gone up which in turn means freight and shipping has gone up...So i think its a good price what i got from ViS and day after day everything is getting more and more costly... Sunday i will be paying my inovice guys...So lets do it the remain members

I think you're just pulling my leg or English is your second language at this point. Ill stop here too.

Don't know why there's a person who doesnt own a benz who says the word "yall" on a Benz group buy thread either
