I'm interested but as it's been said already, January is an expensive month..

Those who are interested please can you put your name in the list and so on. The cut off date has not been decided yet so we can leave it to feb if it gets more people on the group.

£160 seems abit steep for a GB. Thats not including postage in the uk and taxes is it.

Whats the price for 10 sets?

Its a good effort u stepping up to organise the GB.

If u got it to £135 all in then you would get more interest. getting round the taxes is tricky but you could get them to only declare the value of each set to $20 or something but then insurance would only be for that value whuch is a touch risky......but ive done it before!

Hi Guys.

I think it's best to see how many of us are defiantly interested, then try and see what the best deal we can get. At present only I'm ready to confirm so I do not blame Lux for not giving a bigger discount.

If I cannot generate more interest within the next week then I will go ahead with my own order, I do not mind waiting till feb is more people are interested and we can get an overall better deal.

Hi guys,

I have now requested pricing on these as well:

http://www.e90post.com/forums/showth...hlight=mtec+h8

MTec have come out with their own version of H8 bulbs, i know their version of the e90 with personal experience and I was very impressed.

I now want to see a comparison between these and the Lux to see which is brighter. Depending on price which is believe is $258 Delivered Indiviually! seem to be a bit cheaper than Lux but i do not know how they compare yet.

Hi Guys.

Seeing as e92-lighting provide both the Lux and Mtec, i have asked for a price and a review from them to advise which is brighter.

Also have asked them for a price now that we have 5 confirmed buyers.

I will keep you posted on updates from them.

Hi Guys,

I've managed to place an order with E92-Lighting working out at £152 including posting for the Lux V3's.

I did have a 20% Voucher from them which helped. I'm sure they would be happy to welcome the business if more are interested.

The reason I decided to do it this way so that taxes will go to everyone instead of landing on my doorstep and then have me chasing everyone for their amounts.

At £152 i think it's a bargin... I will post some pic's up when it arrives!

Thank you all for your contribution!

You can still go ahead with the group buy, you will just have to get another member to take responsibility to dispatch these in the UK.

The prices mentioned are still there... because of my voucher it worked out cheaper for me to purchase on my own. The group buy prices are very similar though.

Watch out for import duty of 22% as the waybill might show them as a total amount.

Hi Guys,

Mine finally arrived today after my two week wait.

I have posted some pic's on here http://www.e90post.com/forums/showth...8#post11266558

The guys at E92-Lighting were great and did a good deal for me... i'm sure if you want some they will not turn business away... so far i got not heard from customs regarding taxes however i did ask E92 Lighting to mark them down.

You might receive a note from your carrier some weeks after detailing the tax due and their £10 processing fee......robbing gits
