Shoei Neotec helmet Group Buy; Anyone interested?
« on: November 22, 2014, 04:38:31 PM »
I started a discussion on the other Forum on a possible group buy for Shoei Neotec helmets.
Will attach the shortcut..

http://forum.cog-online.org/index.php/topic,55550.msg410479.html#msg410479

Bottom line, I found a supplier that will sell the Neotec's to us for $460 ea (plus shipping) if I can find 4 others that are interested.
Best price I found previously was approx. $490.

If anyone is interested (or if anyone knows of a better price), post here and PM me.

Ride safe, Ted

Folks. I need to go back and check my numbers again.

Previously I said;
I plan to buy myself a new Shoei Neotec helmet for Christmas.
The best price that I've found is approx. $490.
(If anyone knows of a better price, let me know)

Today I contacted a supplier and asked if he would give COG a discount if we do a group buy.
He said that that he will sell them to us for $460 ea. (plus shipping) 

While looking at GT Air, I discovered that on the Neotec:
      The list price is about $660.
      The best price I was able to find was about $584.

If I got my information correct he offered to sell to us for $460.....
If I'm correct (and I may have erred) that would be $200 below list price...
So, I suspect he will sell for $560....

I'll get back to you after his shop opens on Tuesday..

Ride safe, Ted

We had a group buy back in 2012... $515 was the best we could get.

Ok, I checked with Adrain and here is the poop.....

He said he can sell us the Shoei Neotec for $465           
            he can sell us the Shoei GT Air for about the same price... (He will check on price)

NOTE: (on Revziilla for a Neotec; List price is $660, Best Price is $584 so his price is $119 below their BEST Price, or $195 below List Price)


BUT he has to check with his Supplier on quantities to see how many Shoei's (in what combination) we would have to buy in order to get the deal..
  (ie: He is currently checking with his supplier to see if he has to sell 5 Neotec's, "or" 5 GT Air's, "or" a mixture of 5 Shoei Helmets) .

So, my question still stands... Is anyone else interested????

More later,
                 Ride safe, Ted

If the group buy doesn't fly I'd happily sell my Shoei neo tech to someone looking for a deal. 
I believe it's a large anthracite metallic, I wore it for a year.
If anyone is interested I can get pics and verify the size.
Sorry for the sidetrack.

Great... that might be just what someone is looking for.
Thanx!

I just got back into town. Will be calling the supplier today to get an answer from him.

NOTE: Most of the discussion about this group buy is on the other Forum. Go here to check out what has been going on.

I have a white XL I have to get rid of.  Been worn, maybe 6 times.  I can make a real good deal on it as well.
