As good an idea as this is, some of those prices are more expensive than you'll pay from reputable sellers on eBay.

Performance Motorcare and John's Motor Bit's  (any Meguairs search will bring them up) have lower pricing on many of those items.

I know because I've bought from them regularly.  They give £1 off next purchase tokens too.

I think you're forgetting to convert into euro!

i.e. 10 pounds is about 15 euro

so by performance motocare prices:

Scratch X = about 12.75 euro!!!

think

Erm, sorry, but I'm not.  Conversion rate of 0.69

I can still get them cheaper on eBay.

And to prove it.

Quick Clay detailing system @ 16.35 Euro's = £11.28

eBay = £8.99

Yes there is delivery on top, but he'll lower it for more purchases, combine, or post on a slower service to get it even cheaper.

Want to see it?  Here's the link:

Well to be honest there's not much in it but Id' rather avoid the hassle of postage and dealing with someone on ebay.Anyway the more we order the heavier the parcel therefore postage goes up.

Easier to collect it locally for the sake of a couple of Euro!

Here's a full comparison that I've just done (barring the Quick Clay that I've shown above):

NXT Tech Wax - your price £12.94, eBay = £9.50 with free P&P

NXT Metal Polish - your price £6.70, eBay = £6.50 + P&P

Gold Class Metal Polish - thats a very good price indeed!  Over £4 CHEAPER than anything I can find!  Buy lots of it!

Hot Rims - your price £6.55, eBay = £5.90 + P&P

Microfibe Towel - your price £12.94, eBay = £12.99 + P&P

But you have to remember that those of you placing orders for one or more item would get a postage discount, if not free.

I'm not trying to deride the value of this as a group buy, but perhaps point out that it's not as competitive as it may first seem.  Especially as you're having to order in bulk.

My suggestion would be to contact one of the eBayers and ask them how much they'd do the whole group order for - I bet you'd save even more money.
