Oh Crap! Wifey has my SL for the next couple days. I get nervous when she asks to use it, but it is not like I can really tell her no. Hopefully I get the car back without tweaked rims and curb rash. When I ride with her, I will often say "watch out for that pot hole." She will say "what po." Before for she can even get it out, I respond with "THAT ONE"

Maybe in the comments when we send our Paypal payment we should put our MBworld usernames so Programa can give you the list of who paid and who didn't so we don't have to guess who's slacking after 72 hours, assuming the problem does arise.

They have them in stock. Since yesterday I have been trying to make the payment system with them and have called and spoke to a person that works in sales, she said she knew about this 25 unit buy and they are working on making the easiest payment system for us. IMO this should ave been done already. If I don't hear from them by early afternoon, I will call again.

Sounds good, one would think all 25 could call with CC information, they can be put on a hold list until all are obtained, then process and ship, sounds pretty technical right? Let's get a phone number, I want to look Cool before summer is over. LOL

You would think, simple, well they are making it harder than thought and to think they did no work, we came to them with the 25 people. Oh well, we will see how they want to proceed, I will let everyone know today

Hey guys just got off the phone with the sales manager, here is where they stand...

They need this to go onto 1 invoice they can not have 25 different invoices to get the discount since they say that's it's already discounted from the 899$ special price. He said that they already are breaking the rule by shipping to 25 diff people with free shipping but making 25 different invoices will not happen. I gave a suggestion to make a page with a secure payment for only our 25 so it wouldn't be hard but was turned down again. I have done what I can. I don't want to be responsible of collecting the payments and then paying them as its over 11k and don't want to be responsible for that in case something goes wrong. If someone else wants to step in and do the collecting it's up to them but at this point this is where it stands.

I apologize that I couldn't do the final step but there's not much I can do. If anyone has any suggestions please post them here.

Sorry guys

So basically Hulk ran an advertising campaign reaching a huge audience that they could NEVER really reach without being a sponsor. He generated great interest and in the end they don't want to honor or put any effort into collecting the funds? What a joke!! Now that there is interest they are lowering the price to all, to grab another $50 in comparison to the price offered, for those not willing to wait. What is the difference with 1 invoice? If they are willing to send to difference addresses why can't they accept different payments all towards the same invoice if that makes them happy?

I agree and feel like I got what they wanted and I said money is money , 1 invoice or 100
In the end it's over 11k.
Screw it man
I did this stupid thing for nothing and was gonna get everyone here a deal. I don't even want to talk to them again

They got free advertising as far as I'm concerned and took advantage!
