HecticDialectics Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Sounds like a few of the things out of stock aren't on the group buy price anyway. Hopefully the RO/DI systems have a group buy discount, totally love to snag one from BRS! Link to comment
Trogdor447 Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 According to my wife.... haters gonna hate reefers gonna reef Your wife is brilliant! Seriously, all of the complaints etc, its not like these guys are extreme dollar stores.. and hell even if they were.. take 75 people at the same time into a local fish store looking at the SAME items... tell me what you have left Link to comment
HecticDialectics Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 lol yeah, they fully disclosed that it's going to take awhile. I'm still a BRS fan. Link to comment

Cheaper reefing is good for all of us. Well, except for BRS's competitors, I guess... Link to comment

TheMac86 Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 No one buy the BRS reactor until I get one first. Haha Jk. I hope they have an abundance of these. Link to comment
danilew Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I'm beginning to think they skipped over me.. Link to comment
msujeff Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I wasn't going to pick anything up buuuuut they have PC4s in stock! Guess I'm going to drop a Benjamin now Link to comment
kgoldy Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I'm beginning to think they skipped over me.. They're busy checking their emails!! Got all ready to start ordering when I saw an email from BRS... But it was just to answer a question I had from yesterday. Way to prioritize making sure I order the right stuff instead of letting me order what ever the eff my gut tells me to, BRS. Hahah. Buy the way, they have thousands of pounds of Pukani rock, so they're not going to run out, according to Brandon from BRS. Sadly, that's the only thing I asked about in last night's email.

danilew Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I'd love for them to fly me up there so I can automate this process for them. The people who's jobs I automate won't like it very much, but everyone else will Link to comment
thevidon Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Wow - what a disappointment. My cart total went from $366 to $350 with group buy activated on my account. Where are these 10-20% savings? Link to comment

bensanders Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I'm still waiting on my GB email as well.... Link to comment
danilew Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 ...Still didn't get my group buy email... Ditto. I'm not so sure I want it anymore if it's only going to save me $10. Link to comment
thevidon Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 What was in your cart? ...Still didn't get my group buy email... Salifert Kits Hanna Checkers ATO 2 part kit Titanium heater I was gonna place a big order because I was expecting a decent discount.......but this is barely 4%. I might still order something but I'm gonna cut way back. Link to comment
kgoldy Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Yeah, I'm beginning to think I may have been better off when the rock was on sale last week... I'll post my savings when I get my email. Link to comment
zma21 Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I've found a large handful of things that aren't discounted at all. And hey, that's not their fault. Some manufacturers demand prices stay at a certain point, and discount or not, they have to make money. I've ordered from them a couple times and have been EXTREMELY happy with their whole process. The only thing I've been very disappointed with is their turn around on some items to get them restocked. At one point last year it took three months to get a reactor back online. I looked elsewhere, and due to their low stock, someone else will get my money again. Link to comment
Noryb Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I'm in the same boat with the out of stock items. Link to comment
Llamaguy Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Yay! Knocked $20 off RO membrane and DI add-on. Link to comment
jgoldwood Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I just got the email, and my name shows the Group Buy status. I had some items in my cart and did not notice any discount or lower prices. Is it possible that all of my items aren't on sale? PC4, EcoRocks, and MP10w? Link to comment
paneubert Posted February 1, 2011 Author Share Posted February 1, 2011 Sometimes the discount is hard to see since they do not make it obvious. I would open a different browser where you are not logged in and see what price they are listing for a "no name guy" compared to you on the other browser logged in as yourself. That is how I had to do it. Link to comment
jgoldwood Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Alright... doesn't appear to be discounting anything for me. Link to comment
Llamaguy Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I'd bet the Reefkeeper and Ecotech stuff doesn't go on sale because of the manufacturer's agreement. Link to comment
jgoldwood Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I thought that too... but what about their eco rocks? I figured that'd be eligible for a discount. Link to comment
