Indianapolis Hop Buy?? $1-$1.50 per ounce!

[The Pol]

I'll take the last 2 oz of Target.

BRRman I got that 2 ounces in there for you!

 

[brrman]

thanks, dude!

 

[99blackgt]

woot, that's cool. Give me some options to start messing with hops and doing a weekly smash on all these. Is there a method aside from paypal you would prefer? Depositing in your bank account or something? My order is probably like $170 (or more LOL) and paypal charges a % on that right?

 

[brrman]

yeah, 99black is right. Paypal might end up taking a significant amount of what we owe you, Pol. That will cut into your savings - which was basically the whole idea of this great thing you hosted.

 

[The Pol]

Gentlemen...

I want to thank all of you for your orders, and for your willingness to clear up the overruns to make this group buy a success.

Look at the spreadsheet in the OP. This will have all of the details of he buy. We are ordering a lot of hops, at ROCK BOTTOM pricing.

THIS IS A HUGE SUCCESS FOR OUR REGIONAL HBers!!​

Regarding payment... I WILL TAKE C.O.D.

I mean, I am not letting you leave my house with your hops unless you pay me

 

[99blackgt]

When are we going to get together and share an IPA we each make with this batch? lol

Yours is about $200, BUT you averaged $1.12 PER OUNCE SHIPPED AND SPLIT!!!!

 

[99blackgt]

i'm fine with COD, i just don't want you to feel like you're stuck out in the wind with $200 of hops you don't want for the week or two it will take for me to get down there ya know?

 

[Whiskey]

Man that is going to be an ass load of hops!

 

[brrman]

As many of us as possible should try and get together for a hop splitting party. And of course, bring some of our beers to taste!

This is going to be something with pics I hope! Seriously, this will look like a drug packaging job. A bunch of people sitting around a huge table with 40 pounds of dried green leafy stuff in the background, putting into small baggies.

WOW... okay. Will add...

 

[Brewmasters Warehouse]

I am not sure but I have sent 58 lb boxes via FedEx. You can always add another box on to an order. I have sent orders that weighed over 300 lbs to customers via multiple boxes.

 

[The Pol]

I have been talkiing to Puterbaugh... this order was in multiple boxes 25 pounds ago.

 

[99blackgt]

usps max is 75

i know sometimes you save money if you don't break it up, i know this from shipping lots and lots of car parts

 

[The Pol]

I have to give some serious props to Puterbaugh. I have talked to them about this order daily, as it has grown, and everyone I have been in contact with has been awesome.

They have taken a lot of interest in this order and our "group" buy. By the way, they think that you guys owe me... big time

It has been a pleasure working with you all, and it has been a pleasure to work with a large supplier that cares so much about the little guys too. They have an excellent product and an excellent business, run by excellent front line employees.

DO PLAN to see another group buy in 2010.

 

[brrman]

Awesome - Who would have thought this would go up to 50 lbs of hops!!!
This has been a great run, Pol, thanks for all the hard work!

Will be good to meet ya, and to tip a glass to any other Indy HBers who will drink with me!

 

[The Pol]

It will be nice to have yall over. This thing really did grow legs and walk!

 

[LooyvilleLarry]

Maybe we'll do one in Lousiville. Indy ain't that far, neither is Cincy or Lex.
