As a side note, I found it a lot easier to pack up 4 aquapels, than 2. This was mainly because it was easier to form a "box" out of bits of card, to protect the snapping mechanisms. With two it was a little more fiddly, but managed it OK. I will be surprised if any snap open in transit, but I've done my best to pack them up so the natural "pressure" on the card actually bends OUT the snapping bits, and pressure on the other sides which would snap in the handles, is soaked up by the edges of the card used on the other leading edges.

Might sound hard to visualise.

All will become clear when everyone receives their ones Monday/Tuesday.

Received mine this morning, cheers Jason

By the way how do you apply the stuff, just clean the glass lots then squeeze the snappy bits together and wipe on? May have a go later today

Jason, if you have any left over PM me & put me down for two

It will have to be a paypal jobby tho to send the money.

FOZ1 · 29-01-2007, 15:36

Good. Already had one PM saying one might have broken in one of the packets. I might have to rethink the way they're packaged, which might bump up the packaging costs. better that than 1 or both breaking in a pack.

mluton · 29-01-2007, 18:56

Cheers mate, recieved mine today.

Many Thanks

elegance1.8T · 29-01-2007, 19:05

Mines all applied now, bet it doesn't rain for ages now though!!!!!

devonutopia · 29-01-2007, 19:21

Oh, and the aquapel all came with a load of leaflets and stickers, which I just chucked away. Figured no-one really needed them, and could look on a website or something to find out the best way to apply it - Infact I bet the application method is on Briskoda somewhere.

Oh, and the final 24 have been shipped now, so are mid_Atlantic. Can I have the other payments soon please? Thanks.

johnjohnhealy · 29-01-2007, 19:38

Any left ?

Sonic1980 · 30-01-2007, 07:41

Cheers Jase,

Mine arrived yesterday, all in pristine condition - well packaged (your 'packaging ramblings' all makes sense now!)

devonutopia · 12-02-2007, 22:48

Just a quick post to let the other half of the group buy know that the aquapels have now arrived with me and tomorrow I shall be packing them up and getting them sent, Luckily I'm on audit about 300 yards from the Exeter sorting office so I can get them sent straight from there.

I'm still a bit miffed with the supplier as their c0ck-up has cost me an extra £25.... Might consider using an alternative supplier next time round.

To those who were not on this GB please feel free to start a new list with names in the

1)
2)
3)

format and if we get up toward 24, I'll see about getting some more in.
