Second Chance Fleece Buy; Deadline to participate October 28, 2020
Same format as the first fleece group buy. This is an at-cost group buy and here are the details.
Required total group minimum unit number: 12 (UPDATE: minimum qty has been met, Oct 13)
Maximum total for this group order: 30
What does this mean? It means we need a commitment from folks to order a minimum of 12 jackets. I believe we already have enough people who have expressed interest to meet that easily, but if we do not meet our minimum unit number by the deadline of October 28, 11pm PT, all funds will be returned to senders. I have based all of my calculations on an order size of 20 jackets total which would likely ship in two cases, bulk shipping to me at an estimate of $15 per case, 9.75% sales tax applied to the entire transaction by the vendor, and the cost of super size ziplock bags to protect the jackets from damage in transit. Maximum order I can handle at this point is 30 jackets total. Once we hit 30 requested jackets, I will be closing this group buy. Maximum number I can ship to each person requesting is 3 jackets. I cannot fit 4 in a box. I tried.
Cost per jacket: $30.12
Shipping for 1-2 jackets for US residents: $15.05
Shipping for 3 jackets for US residents: $21.10
Shipping for 1-2 jackets for CANADIAN residents: $51.55
Shipping for 3 jackets for CANADIAN residents: $67.05
Example for US residents:
Total cost for 1 jacket plus shipping: $45.17
Total cost for 2 jackets plus shipping to same address: $ 75.29
Total cost for 3 jackets plus shipping to same address: $111.46
*Maximum # of jackets which fit in a large box is 3. I tried cramming in 4; it just does not work.
Example for CANADIAN residents:
Total cost for 1 jacket plus shipping: $81.67
Total cost for 2 jackets plus shipping to same address: $111.79
Total cost for 3 jackets plus shipping to same address: $157.41
*Maximum # of jackets which fit in a large box is 3. I tried cramming in 4; it just does not work.
If we hit or exceed 24 units, then there may be an additional discount applied by the vendor, 4imprint. Updates regarding that would appear in this thread. As with the first fleece group buy, any discounts would be returned to the participants via PayPal.

Re: Payment to Participate
Payment will be collected in advance of the order via PayPal friends and family cash transfer only (no credit card payments will be accepted; do NOT check the button for paying for goods or a service). Deadline to submit your information to participate in this group buy so that you have your jacket(s) in time for cooler weather will be by end of day Wednesday, October 28th (or when we hit 30 total orders, whichever comes first). Send funds to http://paypal.me/RoseanneMurphy
Here is the information you must provide when you send your PayPal funds:
1) your name
2) your shipping address
3) what size jacket (if more than one, list all)
4) optional: email address if you don't want to use PayPal's default for correspondence
Again, please be sure to send money via the friends and family gift transfer ONLY. Any and all transaction fees should be assumed by you. You know me and, even if you don’t particularly like me, you know that I will do what I say. If you don’t think I’ll ship these, please talk to everyone who already ordered one.
Re: Other Notes of Importance
Please note that this is a GROUP BUY. This is NOT a sponsor sale or other for-profit commercial endeavor. There is no overhead, no additional fees, no profit. I am doing this as a courtesy and benefit to S2000 owners and at absolutely NO benefit to myself. I am not even planning to order a jacket for myself in this second chance buy. This is not a business. It is just me, Roseanne Murphy, club member in good standing with no financial stake in this transaction.
All information of who has submitted funds will be updated once per day in this thread. Please allow 24 hours for your information/order to be added.

Re: The Jacket
- The jacket is made from a 8.3-oz, 100% polyester fleece material.
- Zippered outside pockets
- Interior pockets
- Open hem and cuffs
- Reverse-coil zipper, a chin guard and twill neck taping
- Unisex sizing ranges from XS-6XL
Sizing info from vendor -- Chest Size: (Measured across the chest one inch below armhole. Measurements are seam to seam, flat) XS = 19-3/4 S = 21-1/4 M = 22-3/4 L = 24-1/4 XL = 25-3/4 2XL = 27-1/4 3XL = 29-1/4 4XL = 31-1/4 5XL = 33-1/4 6XL = 35-1/4
(THE MEASUREMENTS ARE PROVIDED BY THE VENDOR. My personal experience is that the sleeves run a little long, but the sizing is pretty accurate elsewhere… I ordered a small. It is snug across the butt, a little long in the sleeves, perfect in the shoulders for if I am wearing average fall/early winter clothing underneath) - No additional fee for larger sizes.
- The vendor being used is 4imprint.
Re: The Shipping
- US Shipping will be via USPS medium sized flat rate box for $15.05 and will hold a maximum of two jackets. Shipping of 3 jackets will also be via USPS large size flat rate box to the same address for $21.10. No larger size box is available for this group buy.
- CANADIANS... your shipping will be $51.55 for the USPS medium sized flat rate box (that holds 1-2 jackets) and $67.05 for the USPS large size flat rate box (which holds 3 jackets). ALL $DOLLAR$ AMOUNTS LISTED ARE USD!
- The vendor, 4Imprint, will ship the total order to me within one week of order receipt. Once received by me, all jackets will then be shipped to all group buy participants within 1 week. Allow 5-10 days for USPS to get the package to you, but it usually takes less than that, and there will be a tracking number.
