GROUP BUY: Rimz

First off, can a moderator please move this to the appropriate section - cheers
OK so lately ive been doing a lot of research and it is plausible to get a decent SET of rims landed in Australia from Japan for around $550 as an average (price of rims dependant)
These rims are second hand, however stil in very good condition and dirt cheap (about 150-200aud from the shop) as the Japanese have no value on any second hand goods over there, its crazy.
I have emailed Import monster as the third party and they say its fine to import everything etc and the more we get the cheaper the container is ($220 for a single set - thats the figure thats coming down with more people)
Ive emailed UPgarage in Japan, which will be the store they come from (if not one of the many many many other superstores over there) and am awaiting a reply to get the go ahead to hand over the shopping lists.
Your job is to first put your name down to show interest so we can get a rough idea on numbers for all 3 parties, and to get a list together of what rims you want. Preferrably put down your top 3-5 in descending order of neediness as they may not have your specific rim size/offset etc they are second hand so their stock in a sense is limited (but still unfathomably huge)
Pm me your lists through and once i get an idea of how many are interested i will see what i can get shipping down to, what they have in stock and get rough figures out to everyone before going ahead and getting them on the boat.
Again, these are impossibly cheap and can be bought for around 10% of what you pay in Australia, even with freight and tax they still are 75% cheaper than anything you will find over here - lets get stick into it!
