--TTM Style scoops... This time for real--

Well after all the BS I thought I'd step in and make something happen...
Here is one set, I will update with pricing soon as they are complete.

Looking good.

We have to come up with another name for these things. Something like "Larceny Scoops" or "Sold My Reputation For a Quick $20k Scoops".

I thoughht TTM scoops stood for TookTheirMoney Scoops?

Guess that name is copyrighted though... We'll need something new.

Berti's Breathers?
Big Gulps?
Tangible Touchable Most definitely already produced and ready to bolt on scoops?
Berti's "You can Trust a guy with Yellow Surge Tanks" scoops?

"Beast Breath"
"Beast Breathers"
"Breathe Right Beast Strips"

Berti, logos, graphic design, and web design just ask me.

Here are the questions that remain:

What will the cost of the final product be?
Turn around time?
How many will be willing to pay the cost once #1 is answered?
Will it be worth your time Berti?

I know when I did the last group buy, it was a TOTAL PAIN IN THE ***...

Its great you took the bull by the horns, I just hope the effort is worth your trouble. The margin on the original scoops was small by the time you build, powder/coat add stickers and ship.

I still need to find someone who can make the stickers, so far I anticipating on making 50 sets.... All black powder unless specified otherwise.
You will use your own screws, I decided to leave that to you guys as some maybe have some thing different they use or wherever..

There were what, 35 people in line for the old sets and that was without pictures or a actual timeline so I'm sure he won't have any problem selling them for at least the 150 the other dude was asking. Will that be with the time and Capital invested? I guess that's something only berti will know. But I'm sure all of us who were dicked around by the other dude will be extremely happy he decided to take this project on and I hope he can make a little cash for doing so.
