Ladies and Gents,

Another update. I have received the finalised quote from AA Gaskets. Tooling will be $1400+GST, though the gasket tooling will remain my property while at AA Gaskets and AA Gaskets will maintain the tool for its producing life (5000 pcs). The gasket will be non-asbestos head gasket material 1.4mm thick (+/- 5%), silicone coated. Gasket price (without recovering the tooling cost) is $40.00+GST. Minimum order quantity is 50 units (we are well over that). Once I pay the deposit, we should receive a sample in 4 weeks. Once we approve the sample, the production time is 4-5 weeks.

There are still a few people (about 20 gaskets worth) who haven’t confirmed that they are happy to proceed without warranty, or have not given me an address. I need an answer from them before the end of the month, after which I will assume all orders are final.
Fraze: Need you to confirm that you are still OK to proceed without a warranty   (1 gasket).
Graham_Fuller: Need your address (2 gaskets).
FE_STD_WAGON: Need you to confirm that you are still OK to proceed without a warranty (3 gaskets).
Zulu: Need you to confirm that you are still OK to proceed without a warranty, and need your address (2 gaskets).
FCRB26: Need you to confirm that you are still OK to proceed without a warranty   (2 gaskets).
Ray @ Laidley: Need you to confirm that you are still OK to proceed without a warranty   (2 gaskets).
oldgrey58: Need you to confirm that you are still OK to proceed without a warranty (2 gaskets).
JohnBM: Need you to confirm that you are still OK to proceed without a warranty, and need your address (2 gaskets).
57effie   Need your address (2 gaskets).
black57   Need your address (2 gaskets).
Ken's57   Need your address (2 gaskets).

Assuming that all 20 missing orders go ahead, we have 126 gaskets. Pricing will be as follows:
Your share of the tooling cost: $13
Each gasket: $46
Packaging: $3 (you only pay this once per order)
Postage: $25 (you only pay this once per order)
Total: $87.00 for the 1st gasket, $59 for each gasket thereafter.
These are almost the final numbers: I’ll finalise them at the end of the month.

Cheers,
Harv

Ladies and Gents,

Another update. I have paid for the tooling, and now need to give AA Gaskets the final order quantity. This will be 138 gaskets (lookit that… strange coincidence).

Final costing:
Your share of the tooling cost: $11
Each gasket: $44
Packaging: $3 (you only pay this once per order)
Postage: $25 (you only pay this once per order)
Total: $83 for the 1st gasket, $55 for each gasket thereafter.
i.e. if you ordered one gasket, you owe me $83. If you ordered two gaskets, you owe me $138. If you ordered three gaskets, you owe me $193. If you ordered four gaskets, you owe me $248.
I know Blacky and some of the other guys want to combine postage, or pick up from my place at Sydney. Happy to do so, just let know when I PM you.

Next steps:
a)   I will give the final gasket order quantity (138) to AA Gaskets.
b)   AA Gaskets will invoice me for 50% of the gaskets (about $3,000), which I will pay.
c)   I will send a PM to each of the gasket buyers, giving my account details and the value of the money that they owe me. When you transfer the cash to me, make sure you include your forum user name.
d)   AA Gaskets will make some trial samples, and send them to me to check.
e)   I will pay the final balance to AA Gaskets, and they will send me the 138 gaskets. Hopefully by then all you guys will have paid for your gaskets. For the non-payers, bear in mind that I have your name and address... I will have no hesitation parking my leaky FB on your stencilcrete driveway when I come to discuss payment .
f)   I will pack up and ship the gaskets to the buyers.

Cheers,
Harv

Ladies and Gents,

A quick update on the gasket process. AA Gaskets has received the money for the tooling, and is in the process of having the tooling made. The tooling should be complete by mid-April (at their last estimate), after which AA Gaskets will send me some sample gaskets to approve. They will then make the gaskets, and send to me. I will then divvy them up per everyone’s orders, and mail them out. I’ve bought the plywood that we need for the packing, ready to go.

On the order side, everyone who has placed an order should now have received a PM from me requesting payment. If you placed an order, please check your PMs – let me know if I missed anyone. The payments are starting to trickle in, so all looking good so far.

Cheers,
Harv

Ladies and gents,

A quick update. The tooling is progressing, with AA Gaskets expecting tooling samples early next week. Around 80% of people have paid for their gaskets. Still need payment from crumpsnr, fcwrangler, Graham_Fuller, Trevor_B, Ray @ Laidley, 57effie and black57 please.

Cheers,
Harv
