Group Buy From Tim--Side Steps (Black) - Click HERE for Original Thread

JimH
Here is a thread to see who is interested in purchasing the MDX
Side Steps (Black in color) from Tim. I will purchase if I can get the 10% discount that Tim offered (assuming 10 folks place an order).
acurasandiego
I'm also interested. Black side steps.

Picture of side steps (black) from hondacuraworld web site.
2002 Acura MDX!
The Black side step bar is $430 (I think), but the chrome side step bar is $440!! If it's me, I would rather add $10 more buks to get a better one.

Black side step bar is $430 before discount. If you take 10% discount on it, it will be around $390. The chrome side step bar is $440, which is already discount. So there will be $50 different.

Some people might wants black instead of chrome......
JimH
I believe your cost estimate ($ 390 (black) vs. $ 440 (chrome)) after discount for each is correct. I am only interested in black, and thus the initiation of interest for black side steps in this thread.

I am in as well. Being a newbie, please tell me when and how to order to be part of this group buy.
acurasandiego
So far there's five of us interested....we need five more people to get this going as a group buy....I wonder if we can add those individuals who are interested in the running boards instead of the side steps count as part of the group buy. It would be a group guy for running boards/side steps . . . what about it Tim?
JimH
Another possibility (proposal) would be to join in with the current 10% discount that is currently in effect for the "chrome" side steps that Tim announced awhile back. If we come up short (i.e., < 10 people showing interest), it would be great if Tim would allow us to join in w/ those that are currently ordering the "chrome side steps". In any event, I will order the "black side steps" as soon as we get an OK from Tim's perspective.

This thread answers your question as to process for getting a
Group Buy approved, etc.

I'm in for the chrome side steps. Is there a group buy for a chrome side step? I can't seem to find it.
JimH
Totomdx: Here is the special that Tim has for the chrome side steps.

My MDX would love some Black side steps on her. Keep me posted!

Thanks JimH for the link to Tim's chrome side steps special. Just ordered one. I guess my name can be removed from this GB for the black side steps.

This forum is awesome, a lot more responsive than my Acura's salesman!

There's at least 4 individuals who want running boards. That would make it ten. How about it Tim.....will that work? Group buy for side steps/running boards.

WOW -scratch my last message... I guess I didn't read far enough in on the threads... I might be the 10th person you guys were looking for!
Cool!
Looks like we all get a discounted x-mass present...
I hope I'm reading this right this time...?
I'll proceed to the above link for the other details...

==========My original Message=============
<<< I too am fairly new, and don't know all the details of a group purchase, but I hope we find the needed 10 in order to accomplish this... I have been sorry for some time I didn't order the side steps upon purchasing my vehicle...
Let me know what is needed next...
(Assuming 4 more are located?)>>>

We'll start the Group Buy, but this will be shorter because of the Christmas timeframe. We'll start it Wednesday, and end it Monday, price 389.69. Please order as early as possible if you would.

I'd start it today, but I'm leaving early. I've been here since 4 am :eek:
JimH
Thank you Tim-- I will call Wednesday to order.

This being my first time to participate in a "group purchase", I'm not quite sure how it is done??

I'm assuming we are all going to call-in our orders to HondAccuraWorld.com at the same time, or something to this affect?
(and are you guys saying that tomorrow is when we will do this?)

I may be way off? I'm just not sure how the 10 of us each get our separate billing and shipping details (CC #'s, etc) to the distributor at the same time, in order to appear as one group, but with each item being handled separately...

Please enlighten me?

Thanks (Sorry for the ignorance...)

Really looking forward to the new side steps!!!

Just call Tim at his toll free number in the previous message, and order for yourself. Since he O.K.'ed the group buy, we get the item at the discount price that he quoted. We do not order as one group, but order the part individually. Just mention the Group Buy per Acuramdx.org site. Can order from Wed. through Monday per Tim's earlier message. Maybe Tim will throw the side steps onto Santa's sleigh as it passes through his area for a quicker delivery to us?

Perfect!
Thanks for the explination!
I'll call in the morning...

I'll never have to scuff up my door jams again getting the Kayak and camping gear in place!

Thanks to the other 9 for getting this deal in place...

jpmanis
I'm in, too.
One more for good luck...

WOW! :D
That was the easiest thing I've ever done....!

Tim was ready with an order card, and I was off the phone in 30 sec.!
I can't believe this price included shipping!
Great deal...

He said they would arrive late next week!
Slapping them on will be a fun holiday project ...

Looks darn easy from the PDF instructions on Tim's web site!

Thanks again for initiating this group purchase...
Have a great Holiday everyone...

The side steps arrived in a big "brown truck" that Santa sometimes uses to deliver X-mas presents on X-mas eve. They look great on the MDX. My thanks to Tim for offering this group buy, and for the fast shipping.
