I know I probably shouldn't do this, but am ordering today so need to know ASAP and will hopefully get more views in here!

I'm ordering a set of the Dodo Juice buckets to bring to PVS for .dean., and it's something I don't intend to order that often and definitely not stock, so therefore if anybody else is after a set, please add your name to the list.

They look like this:





They work out at £47.70 for the pair as you see them with graphics and grit guards. I am after £10.70 deposit via PayPal to secure the order, £37 to be paid upon collection at PVS.

Alternatively, to make it clear I can do:

Clear 20L bucket without graphics or grit guard - £7.95 each
Graphics Kit (Wash OR Rinse) - £5.95 each
Grit Guard (Red OR Blue) - £9.95 each

So will take separate orders for separate bits if you want, just presumed the "kit" would be the popular bit.

Please add your name to the list, and u2u me for PayPal details. Thanks

1. .dean. - Full Set
2.

I don't make up the prices - that's RRP. I personally wouldn't pay that either but there you go.

Right, we've established it's pretty pricey for what they are, but some people want them, hence I'm offering to order it before PVS for collection there to save on postage. Can we move on please?!

Please also u2u me if you want anything else to buy at PVS that isn't in my For Sale thread as that is the stock I will be taking with me to sell (plus clay, cloths and applicators)

Thanks,

Rich

Sorry Rich, but that is a lot of money for a couple of buckets
You might not make up the prices, but shouldn't you at least find better alternatives or better prices for your customers?

Those grit guards aren't even all they're cracked up to be either. How often do you dip your mit right down to the very bottom of the bucket?
I know i normally just dunk it in the top 1/4.

I suppose its just to do with the branding as it is with most things, I've found some grit guards you can just put into a normal bucket - http://www.i4detailing.co.uk/acatalog/Meguiars_Grit_Guard_Bucket_1.html

Sorry to hijack Rich....

Murray - No I don't intend to source other cheaper solutions as I don't intend to be a stockist as such - I only make the Dodo products available as I'm an authorised detailer so therefore am allowed to resell their products.

I use grit guards and do feel they are worth it though tbh - especially on lower end jobs when only 1 bucket is used (e.g trade jobs in my case)

Also to make it clear I can do:

Clear 20L bucket without graphics or grit guard - £7.95 each
Graphics Kit (Wash OR Rinse) - £5.95 each
Grit Guard (Red OR Blue) - £9.95 each

So will take separate orders for separate bits if you want, just presumed the "kit" would be the popular bit.

So you can save yourself £12 by not having stickers on the buckets!

This detailing tosh is a right money-spinner!

No just buy. I'm offering them to people who want them but don't intend to hold stock of them due to price, dont intend to ship them and the fact I dont have room to store x amount of buckets

Chris - price above dude

Yup should be able to, quick estimate on postage works out at £8.50 via courier as they aren't the easiest thing to post!
