sparkolloid group buy

Postby i dont drink » Tue Mar 06, 2012 8:18 am

hi all... it seems that more people are wanting to try some sparkolloid so iv decided to drum up some victims.

im willing to do a group buy and then forward it on to whoever wants it, so if you want some, can you add your name to the list and if i get enough people, il order some from the us for us all.

i will show all costs incurred including costs for me to post it on so as we have no arguments which is only fair i think, and all i ask for is a small amount for my time and effort!

so if you want some, then just add your name and il sort it out if i get enough orders

al.
oooooooh my head.....

Al has now been banned for trying to sabotage the forums, sorry guys. Guess he can't handle his drink!

I'll look into getting a box shipped over and do it that way instead.

Thanks jimmy i am very interested to try it but dont want to inconvenience or stress anybody.
If its possible for a few of us to club together and buy an amount that makes it cheaper for everybody including the person arranging it then thats great but if its more of an inconvenience to anybody than its worth then thats ok.
By the sound of this stuff im suprised that somebody hasnt imported a few kg and bagged it up to sell on ebay.
There might be a few £ to be made.

Actually I looked at that and you would have to sell a couple of tons to make it worth while as a money making project because it only costs a few quid for enough to see most of us through a year!!!! :o

It's no hassle, I want to try it too - I'll sort it out early next week (after pay day!) and I'll let you all know when it's in.

Hello

I just read Brewhaus.ca (Canada) website. They sell to all the world except USA and they sell sparkolloid at IMHO is a good price. Sparkolloid is a wine finning so there should not be a problem.

Brewhaus in Canada charge the equivalent of GBP2.68 (Can$4.25) for a 30g pack.

Brewhaus in Texas charge the equivalent GBP1.85 (USD2.95) for a 113g pack - almost three times the size but only 70% of the Canadian price! :o

Anyone would think I worked for Brewhaus in Texas! :D :D :D

For Canada, take a look at Ian Smiley's (of Making Pure Corn Whiskey fame) site Smiley's Home Distilling. 113g is $2.95 (canadian). I get most of my supplies etc from them. Fast shipping and fair rates (at least inside Canada). He may sell in larger quantities if you want. If 113g is all you want, our Light Package postal rate should get it there cheaply.

OK, anyone who has ordered some could you please let me know what it cost you INCLUDING SHIPPING - I've got prices for bulk quantities and shipping but trying to calculate what it comes out at per order and if it makes sense to do or not - if the cost to get it from me is about the same as from them there's no real point.

Cheers!

I got 16oz (4 packs) and it cost me the equivalent of GBP£13.70 including shipping ;) .

Brewhaus shipped it in what the USPS calls a "Small Flat Box" at a cost of just US$10.

Those who know better than me say you should use 10g per 25lt wash. Each pack weighs 113g (4oz), so 4 packs weighing 452g means the 4 packs will do 45 washes :o That's some saving. Works out at 0.30 pence per wash. Compared to standard Turbo Clear that's a saving of GBP£1 per wash. ;D
