Cool Stunning Price (£9.50+VAT) On NF Race Octane Booster

Hi All,

I've just about run out of NF Race OB http://www.nfeurope.com/productblack.htm , so I am looking to bulk buy some more. I have a supplier who said he will sort us out a Stunning Price for a Group Buy, once we have an idea on numbers.

The last GB for NF race was back in August and the threshold for pricing was IIRC around 60 bottles.

So, if we can have a show of hands and number of bottles required here, I'll check on the pricing and get back to you.

Please copy and paste the list at the end of the thread with your username and confirmed number of bottles required. Any questions, post 'em up here and I'll do my best to answer them.




Edit 16/5 : Price is £9.50+VAT (£11.16 inc. vat) That's against a retail price of £12.50+VAT (£14.69 inc. VAT), a saving per bottle of 24% (£3.53)! (this is based on selling 100+ on the GB which looks as though we will easily exceed!)

Delivery, regardless of quantity is £10+VAT (£11.75 inc. VAT) or if you are local enough you, can collect. Supplier is in Essex and is Xtreme Scoobies, who also supplied for the last GB last August.

I'm sure you'll agree that is an excellent saving!

Question

Is it the original NF with "Viscon" or the new stuff with "Vitane" ?

I don't find the new stuff (with faded looking label) to be anywhere near as good as the original NF, in fact I find the std Millars just as good but less than 1/4 the price !

Good point Andy, I have a bottle of each here, and never realised they were actually different until you mentioned it!!

The new bottles mention they treat 400litres, whereas the older one treats 300litres!!

They must have watered it down then!

Do they still sell both types or does the new 'Vitane' one replace the original?

I dont use the stuff normally, just for the odd special occasion, so no need for me to buy a load of it.

Best to find out what one it is first. GB will fall flat on its face if its the new formula.

Guys,

The supplier assures me it is the Viscon product and has checked 3 cases in stock to be sure. Still waiting on price scales though I'm sure he'll come up trumps

So list so far:


1. Trashman 10 Bottles
2. BOB'5 10 - 20 Bottles (depending on price/ingredients)
3. Pauleds2 5 Bottles
4. Andy.F ??? (depending on ingredients)
5. alanbell 10 Bottles (depending on price/ingredients)
6. chrome 10 bottles (depending on price/ingredients)
7, IPalmer 5 bottles (depending on price/ingredients)
8. Jay m A 5 bottles (depending on price/ingredients)
9. Hol 10 Bottles (depending on price/ingredients)
10, WUZ 10 Bottles (depending on price/ingredients)
11. Stiver3 5-10 Bottles (depending on price/ingredients)



That's 80 bottles minimum subject to price, any more for anymore?

That was what I thought, although there is some discussion over the "active" ingredient. However, the supplier assures me it is the "original" formula with Viscon.

BTW you really up for 30-60 bottles? Great if you are as I'm sure I can use that as a little thumbscrew .

Hope to get an idea on prices Monday.
