LUX V3 Group Buy - Aug 29th Cut off Date

Hey guys,

As you all know by now, BimmerEyes Inc. is a Canadian company that specializes in premium BMW lighting and they are offering the LUX Angel Eye LED bulbs to Canadian BMW owners.

I am going to order a set for my car (long overdue) and was looking to see if anyone else was interested as it would be cheaper.

They are selling for $260 Canadian Per set.

Shipping is a flat rate of $18 regardless of amount. If we order 5 or more, shipping is free.

Even if one person joins me, we cut the shipping in half.

I will be ordering on Monday August 29th. So if you are interested, you would need to pay me the $260 upfront, or at least half upfront. A lot of guys on here know me, and I have organized groups buys before, so you know I won't be screwing anyone over.

So if anyone wants in on this, post up, and send me a PM so we can meet, ill give you my personal info, and you give me the cash so I can order them.

WE HAVE 5 PEOPLE! FINAL PRICE: $260 CANADIAN ALL IN FOR THE FOLLOWING MEMBERS:

1. Havok_2011 (PAID IN FULL)
2. Bolty (PAID IN FULL)
3. 335xdriver (?????)
4. Xtype0 (PAID IN FULL)
5. bimmerian3 (PAID IN FULL)
6. e90-328i (PAID IN FULL)


PAYMENT METHODS:

I have been told that this order needs to be made by one person, and one address. I will be making the order on behalf of the group, however you must make payment first.

Options:

1. Meet me at work (Yonge and Bloor) around 1pm-5pm

2. Meet me at Yorkdale Mall on Sunday evening 8pm-9pm ?

3. Pay Bimmereyes directly at www.bimmereyes.com YOU MUST INDICATE THE FOLLOWING: Indicate that you are part of this group buy, and that you undertstand and accept that the lights will be shipped to Nick Maroulis for distribution to you. You must say this in order for the $18 shipping to be refunded.


PLEASE POST HERE AND LET ME KNOW THAT YOU HAVE PAID FOR YOUR LIGHTS AS A RECORD!! THANK YOU

I paid $272 CDN after exchange rate on mine including shipping... doesn't seem to be much incentive unless the price just went up?

Its not a huge saving, but it is the best price you will find.

Even now with 2 people in it, its going to cost $269 shipped.

Best scenario is $260 shipped.

So if someone was interested in buying these, why not do it now, as this will be the best price you will get them for.

I will join this group if I don't have my LUX V2. Common people! group buy is the best way to purchase. Everybody will save money. Not a huge savings but better than individual buying.

The average price is around $300 for someone in Canada to get these from the US after shipping and duties.

I am surprised more people are not jumping on this. But then again most of the enthusiasts on here already bought them

Hey Havok,
thanks for organizing this! But things have changed financially and this money needs to go somewhere else right now.

Again thanks for managing this and i'm sure you'll get more people interested soon!

Bump.

Best of luck on the group buy and taking advantage of the no tax, no shipping cost if more than 5 people. I'd join but I'd need the 5.1 and as nice as they look, having a tough time justifying dropping $200+ on a lighting mod at this time... even if I stretch it as an early Christmas present to myself

And by $164.50 and $160 I think Havok means $264.50 and $260. Either that or he is an extremely nice guy and subsidizing everyone's purchase.

There are duties? Are they not made in the USA? I thought they're $245 + $35 in shipping = $280 US, with lower exchange, possibly less in $CDN.

Is your $260 including CDN taxes too, like PST or HST, which I suppose you might get charged if you import them?

They are now being sold by a Canadian Vendor, so no taxes or duty charges!

I don't follow your logic... A Canadian vendor is more likely to charge taxes when selling to someone in Canada since they're based here (PST or HST) compared to you maybe getting lucky at the border and customs not charging you! If the vendor is saying their price includes taxes, then that's one thing.

So for the OP, can you please confirm that the price you've listed above is INCLUDING all taxes too?

Yours arrived via USPS and you didn't get dinged HST then? When did you get it, by the way? Sometimes I've heard Canada Post sends you a bill later for the taxes on the declared value of the item.
