I don't mind you guys taking split bags, heck you can even use my scale to do it, but one of the parties has to take on the full sack responsibility and you guys can deal with the splitting of grain and money when you arrive to pick up. AnoldUR, are you willing to add the full sack of wheat to your order and deal directly with mystery man?
Guys, even if you're a supporting member, everyone please PM me with full name, address and phone number. It will make me a little more comfortable putting the money up.
NOTE: ALL ORDERS MUST BE FOR UNMILLED GRAIN. There can be delays for milling requests, it costs more, and just in case someone doesn't pick their order up, I want to be stuck with something I can store.
If you ask for "maris otter" generically, I'm putting you down for Thomas and Fawcett MO since that's what I'm getting for myself. It's 3 cents more per pound but I think it's worth it.
Thanks Bobby for doing this, sounds good so far. Are you weighing and splitting the grains for the community split? Can you add me to the list for 5#s of each also except the wheat? So total is 2 MOs, 1/2 a wheat, and 20#s splits.
no, im male, thought i set that in my profile. Im from essex county(northern) nj. I'll send my payment via paypal no problem once we get a final count so we know the shipping costs. We have 29 sacks currently?

That’s fine with me, but I'm not sure how the dividing up will work. It may be difficult to coordinate us both being there at the same time. I’d be willing to pitch in a little extra for your time if you could have it separated. If by some remote chance bkov doesn’t come through, I’ll just take both bags.

Hey Guys, I am a member of another board (NB) that usually does a group buy. This year it looks like that one is falling through. Bkov just turned me on to this buy and I'd like to get in on it if possible. I have no problem fronting the money, but I just remembered that I will be out of town from the 14th at least through the 20th and possibly through the end of August.
Would that be a problem? I am looking for at least 2 sacks of T&F Maris Otter, 1 sack of Canada Pilsen, and I wouldn't turn down 5 lbs of Munich if there's any left in the group split.
Please let me know. Guys on the other board can vouch for me if you like, but I imagine cash in hand should do the trick as well.
Edit: I am in Bradley Gardens, in Bridgewater, BTW. Bobby, I will PM you with details if you think it'll work out for you.
Shipping. There's enough orders now for $5 per sack shipping. I might get a couple more takers to drop it a little lower, but it's too difficult to keep recalculating when the ultimate difference to each buyer is $1-3. Therefore, consider the per sack shipping rate at $5 from now on.
I'll be breaking up the community specialties into 1-gallon zip lock bags which hold exactly 5lbs each. I'm paying myself for bags and work by charging $1 a pound flat. It's still 50% cheaper than any LHBS to you.
On the 50/50 wheat split, you both pay the $5 shipping charge which puts $5 in my pocket. That makes each share of 27.5lbs cost you 23.15 or 84 cents a pound.
I just bought some 55# base malt. Next time.
