Group Buy in Chicago #7

[Gothic_Horror]

I am coveting some rice hulls from a non-payee. The body isn't even cold and I am rifling through the remains.

Grave digger!

Grave digger!

I call it Vulturing, just hovering waiting for that last sigh of breath.

Like the silver hairs at the grocery store parking lot for the up-close spot.

Bill - have you sent an email directly to the last few people reminding to pay?

[Neopol]

Better be a whopping dank black IPA with a name like that...

 

[johns]

PM me if someone does not pay for grain

 

[autiger]

same here, I am not looking to pick up a lot. However, I might take a sack of MO or some hops. Would there be a way to post up what hasn't been paid for on the website and people can try and pick up those items.

 

[JonGrafto]

This is my first buy so I apologize in advance but what is the normal timeframe given for people to post payment? Sometimes there is a waiting period to transfer cash and we have only had the opportunity to pay for a few days. Are we being too hard on those that haven't paid yet ??!

 

[wagz]

In the past it has taken a week or so to get all the payments. So I'm sure the last few will pay soon

 

[mikescooling]

Nope, when it comes time to throw spent grain balls at them; I'm going to shove rocks in mine, like I do with my snow balls. JK,,, All kidding aside in this day and age, no one in this buy should come up MIA.

John I'm mostly just playing....a week or two is about typical...this one was incredibly fast. But I am ready with my dog-doo snow cones and I'm bringin Nanook.

 

[bmason1623]

ok, there's a person by the name of rdom who has not responded to my emails regarding payment. He ordered half a sack of pale so it's a small amount. If I don't hear back from him/her by tomorrow evening then someone can buy it.

Three days is all it took to collect over 13 grand from over 70 people...This is definitely the work of the experience of 6 other group buys run by Bill, but I think that Ghoti's systems work has kept us all engaged enough to be attentive in our participation. That is just fantastic work by them , and by all of the participants for doing our parts and having fun with it along the way!

I was also kidding. I've participated on a few group buys through Bill using Ghoti's site and this one was smooth. However, I still wants some rice hulls...

I've got 10 lbs. hmm. Lol.

 

[bmason1623]

Who wants rdom's 27.5# of pale malt? His order is all the way at the bottom of the spreadsheet. He didn't really want it but was playing around in the database and accidentally ordered it without realizing.

 

[scotty77]

Bill we will jump on the 27 lb of pale.

 

[bmason1623]

Sold!

Look at the amount owed and send me payment. I'll update the spreadsheet once you have paid. Thanks, Scott!

 

[ArtimusBeerimus]

Super impressed all the way around with this entire operation! Nice work, all!

I like his fishing hat.

Did you use a brake to bend that?
