Group Buys should be left to the registered traders as historically they are proven to cause nothing but problems when they don't go as planned and people start blaming the forum and its admin for things going wrong. Secondly, PassionFord's registered traders pay good money to use this site in a commercial manner and it would be unfair of us to allow a non registered trader to sell a large volume of items to our community via a group buy when they haven't paid for the privilege of doing so. If you wish to arrange group buys, please feel free to do so but please use our registered traders to do so or maybe even ask the supplier you have in mind if he would like to join us. With the prospect of a bulk sale lined up immediately upon joining why woudlnt he?.

What if the registered traders can't/won't match the price offered? Surely the essence of a community is to work together and get the best deal they can and if that means using somebody who doesn't pay the £400 or whatever it is traders fee per annum then tough luck, surely?

For example if I told people I could get a Focus RS from ford for 2k under the list price, but I needed 2 other people to join me to do so, would Ford have to pay traders fee's?

Genuine enquiry!
