Default AMB Transponder group buy/ Updated news!!

Those that joined the last 2 group buys i thank you! but for those who are looking for another group buy there is a huge announcement from AMB about prices.

Starting Jan1st AMB is increasing their prices but 12-14% this translates about 10 dollars increase they retail for $83 right now but the price will hit towards 93 in the next couple of weeks.

i have been doing group buy prices for 75.00 plus 3.85 USPS shipping in the USA and 7.00 shipping world wide.

Basically after Dec 23rd the price will jump up new price will be 85.00 retail will be around $93.00 this is effective Jan 1 05. Any orders done before the 23rd will be at the current price...

So the bottom line is...

I am doing one last group buy b4 the 23 i am going to stock some for the next year but for those who want to join in let me know.

i will require a deposit of 50% this time since i am actually using some of my money to buy inventory vs buying for pre-orders. I am estimating to buy about 30 for my own inventory to sell locally.

Turn around time is about 1 week. you can ask the guys in the past group buys they got their PT's fast with in i say 10 days they had their transponder.

so if you are intersted contact me b4 the 20th. my order will be placed on the 22nd.

JC

P.S. i have the E-mail from AMB so if you want to see the facts i will be glad to share it with you.

I'll buy one, maybe two. I need to check tomorrow to see if my local track is switching to the new system. If they are two for me, if not, only one.

Payment?!?

JC - Just curious to know how one goes about paying you? Do you have a Hobby Shop in the Cerritos area with a website? Do you take PayPal payments? Just wondering... THNX!

I don't have a hobby shop i am starting up an online deal soon but it's dedicated for large scale cars.

I primarily purchased a timing system from them and opened an account so from then on i have been purchasing transponders from time to time. Sell them to my fellow 5th scale friends since they are looking for them too. But the past couple of months some friends of mine were wanting some for 1/10 scale so i decided to extend the offer to every one on line as well.

So in a nut shell i don't have a physical shop i am a one man team that likes to race and support the hobby. But i will have a website setup for large scale soon as i am setup as a dealer for them.

Hi there, would like to check if you take orders for delivery to Singapore ?

From your mail, the price would be US$75 + US$7 for shipment. This is the price before 23 Dec orders. Am i right ?

Also how to go about for the payment ? By paypal ?

Thanks. Appreciate your response.

shipping to singapore is about 9.00 air mail.

Canada/Mexico is/ Europe/ Australia $7.00 Any where in Asia is about $9.00 not sure why but any where in aisa/ Singapore, Japan, China, Thiland etc... they charge slightly more it might be due to customs fees?

To those that want to save some cash.

I have my own personal transponders for sale i have 5 of these.

they are in good working condition but they are used. they look used (nolonger the bright red color more like the dull red color) it does not have the tabs on it i trimmed them off and used double side tape on it.

it's a good buy for the price... i have no problems with these transponders at all i just want to change to new transponders (reason) Cool numbers i wanted a real odd number so i have encountered 3 transponders with original numbers they are like...
9432005, 8579000 etc...

so if you don't mind a used transponder i have some for sale
$55.00 shipped in the USA
$57.00 Canada
$59.40 Any where over the Pacific (asia, autralia, singapore)

Drop me an E-mail or reply here if you want a used one.

To those who want the new transponders.

Cut off is 1:00PM PST on Monday 12-20-04 order will be placed for those who leave a deposit, i expect to get the transponders after the holidays so you should see your transponders on the 4th or 5th of Jan (dates might chage due to complete payment of the balance remainder).

Thanks guys
JC
