Any interest in a One Piece window Group Buy
« on: October 01, 2008, 05:24:06 pm »
I have negotiated a group price for One piece windows with OPP.  If we can get 25 purchases I can sell the 73-87 version for $590 + shipping and the 67-72 version for $420 + shipping.  I can also add the El Camino kits to this if there is any interest.  That is 15% off of retail on kits.

Once we hit the end and have gotten enough purchases it will take at 4 weeks turn around for delivery.

I am running the poll for 7 days to gauge interest.

I'd love to have the one piece windows but even at this reduced price they're still so darned expensive.  Is it the glass that makes the price so high?

yes, I research this same concept about 7 years ago, I got a working model and called around and when i did find a company that was willing to make the glass the cost was going to be $250 PER side, AND I had to buy a MINIMUM of 200 units, as in 200 left and 200 right to get that price.  AND if the glass was off or wouldn't work, I would get to do it all over again with $100,000 worth of junk glass.

So the 73-87 kit is at least $400 worth of glass.  The 67-72 kit is at least $250 worth of glass, if you figure he has already sold over 200 kits and gotten the discount.

Well :) I have been selling the One piece window kit for over 2 years.  I am just trying to get the price lower for those interested.

I believe the one piece windows are cool but the price is just out of line compared to what you already have. What you have for the most part has worked since 1973. We all love the styling of the basic truck so why spend lots of money on something like the side windows. When you would rather have nicer paint or a lowering kit or a lift kit etc....

Now if it was a 200.00 deal people would jump all over it.

For almost 500.00 I like my vents.

I was actually looking for some feedback on the price and availibility and interest of those that want them.  I guess I should have just put Yes as a voting option to see how may want them.
I understand that some people prefer the vents and that is ok.  I am not asking if we should sell them or not, I just wanted to know if anyone here would be interested in purchasing them at a reduced price.
