JUST FYI - All posts in this thread containing unsubstantiated nonsense will disappear. This guy was nice enough to put together a great group purchase for us, and I won't have people whoring up this thread. Thanks - Paul

Hokay, 1STOF3 pmed me and it looks like hunsaker has updated their website w/ the new 09 models of the seats. I still noticed it said limited quantity so I have no idea what sort of stock they keep. As some of you may remember I tried to put a group purchase together w/ hunsaker a few months ago. They were willing to work with us at the time and basically offered a considerable 10% of total purchase price. Unfortunately the seats that most wanted at the time (black vinyl synkro) were out of stock. We agreed that it was better to just put this buy off until everything was IN STOCK and give it another go. At any rate..... last go round, I set a goal of 10 people. For some reason 10 turned out being quite a tough number to reach. Obviously there is power in numbers and more people interested = better discount. From past experience 5 seems to be a reasonable number. I would not limit the buy to 5 (if there are more..... so be it) but basically to get any sort of mentionable discount I'd imagine it begins at 5 and goes from there. If there is at least 5 people interested I can contact hunsaker and see if they'd be willing to work something out in form of a discount. I was the one who started the buy so I'll take responsibility for what I started and do my best to make this one work even though I'm no longer taking part in it. I went to the dark side and bought corbeau as I couldn't wait.
That being said. Look over their website www.hunsakersports.com. IF you see something you'd be interested in purchasing post up along w/ a qty, brackets, harnesses, color, etc..If I get an idea of those w/ serious interest I can contact hunsaker and see what kind of deal they'd be willing to work. Like I said they offered 10% off total purchase price a few months ago. However I cannot promise they will be as generous again but It's worth a try.

[size=10pt]UPDATE 1/6/2009[/size]
OK just got of the phone w/ Justin at hunsaker.
They only have the synkro in the grey/black (two tone) in stock. Once they are gone they are gone so it's a limited deal and you won't be able to get that color combo later on.
They do have the Icon seats in stock in either All Grey or All Tan (no black)
The black synkro are out of stock till march. He said they might be coming out w/ a new model
Hunsaker will offer a discount as long as all the items are on the same ticket. Meaning the entire order placed the same day. If you guys have any other questions concerning what is in stock please email hunsaker and they should be able to help you out w/ availability. I know almost all of us wanted a synkro in all black so availability of the seats kinda throws us for a loop.
We have 2 options the way I see it.
1. Wait till March, when they have the seats in stock and try the group buy again (since almost all of us wanted the black synkro seats that are currently out of stock)
2. As I mentioned above they have some seats in stock (limited colors). If a few of you guys (maybe 3) are interested in those they MIGHT be able to work w/ you on the price (I know personally I want an all black seat). Granted it might not be a %20 discount but you still may be able to save some money.
CLIFF NOTES: The black synkro seats that almost all of us wanted are out of stock till march. They might be coming out w/ a new model as well. Hunsaker is stilling willing to work w/ us on a group purchase but we obviouly won't have the seats as soon as we though.
