Can’t get shipping from my own damn company cause they don’t deal with personal loads.
I’d be in for one for sure possibly 2.

There are enough takers for a group buy with a current total of 76. And Price likely to be around $44each, not a fabulous price.

We would need confirmation of that price and that people are still interested at that price.

OBK says to get the service parts:
We will toss in service parts if someone is willing to teach folks how to service them at the split.
We need to decide if we want to go ahead, it is feasible and where we would deliver.
I could get them shipped to my place and then you would all have to come out to Jeddore to pick them up!
I do have storage and fork lifts for my tractor so no problems there. But doubt you all will fancy the trip.
Or we could have them delivered somewhere in Dartmouth say? Somewhere with a loading dock would be ideal. Anyone got one?

Hate to be the first to back out but I'm in no rush so I'll just keep me eyes peeled on here on kijiji.

I unfortunately have to back out. I just bought a car that I’m not sure I can afford yet and starting a brewery so I have to withdraw from some things I’ve gotten myself into lately.

I will however say that it’s still a decent price at $44, and I hope to not deter anyone with backing out.

Sorry I am out. I was able to talk someone locally into buying his for a similar price.

Update from OBK :
I under estimated the amount of breweries that would be interested in corny kegs. We had to remove the ad from the website for the skid pricing on ball locks only. Although we have been filling orders and I think freight has left our warehouse daily we are still thousands of pieces behind.
If you are club and already had club plans in place to buy these we will make sure you can get your order in and the price is indeed locked in. It was always our intent to get these into the clubs when we launched the project.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Patrick
So appears they are still going to take orders from clubs...... I have asked if and when a Brewnosers group buy could be placed. Not much feedback re. a delivery location. I do have a truck. So I suppose I could get shipment here and arrange a dish out day in Dartmouth. Would have been great if someone had access to a business with a loading dock though.

I got a reply from Patrick at OBK
Send an email personally if you are the one running it, swamped with panic emails from folks not even the ones running it. Kegs for every club! I am just not taking any more money until ready.
Lol I originally posted this in case anyone else was keen enough on the prospect to get a group buy started.
I could respond that I am, and that we are going to place an order when we are able.

However I would like some more thoughts on shipping/delivery. A lot of people were 'depends on price inc shipping'. Aside from the quote I got earlier from the link someone posted on page 1 (which I am not sure of the validity of), the best quote I have is $1150 delivered to me and $512 to a business address in Dartmouth($480 with loading dock). OBK will give a shipping quote to a business with dock but only after order placed.

Clearly not viable delivering to me.
Another member has offered to get delivered to his home in town. Might be an option. Quote for that is $535.

If they were delivered to me I would be ok with paying by cc and cash on pick up/ etransfer prior to collect. But I am not so ok with that if delivered elsewhere (we are talking over $3k).
I have no experience with shipping or organising group buys so a little help please if people want this one to go ahead. I personally am pretty much easy either way.

Is this keg bulk buy still a thing or has it died now? If its still on I could potentially go for 2 kegs now but still price dependent. Do we have a delivered price or is that still an unknown?

I picked up another couple of kegs this week so do not need any more for a while. Seems to be a lack of enthusiasm with regards organising so perhaps its a non-starter.

I know this is weeks passed now, but in case someone ever decides to revisit this, I'd take 10 and if needed the whole skid could be dropped off at Low Point / Goodmore in Dartmouth. We don't have a loading dock, but we have room to deliver, folks would be free to pick up from us, and I guess we'd save money for being a business address?

I bought 3 from OBK taking advantage of their sale rate, and (last weekend) an additional 10% off total order sale.
