New Clams Direct order!

[z28pwr]

did you order one? don't know if any MAAST orders have been placed for a group order/split shipping

No Sherri, but would be interested in the group order, should we just order the clam and have Barry hold it?

[ST3PH3N]

is there going to be a group order again any time soon?

[Hamp]

I would like in on one if there is!

Hi Kristy,

I'm in for a group order. As a matter of fact I'll order two just to get this thing rolling. Let's nail down some specifics like where will we pick up (LFS?) and give at least a week for people to pick their clams out. I'm willing to help if you're ready! We should probably PM the other people who were orginally interested.

Take care,
Vince

sounds like there is enough interest in another group order. my advice, one person needs to take the lead and run with it. even moreso since barry has some great clams in stock (including some killer maximas). they will go quickly!!!

just my $.02

MAXIMAS! MAXIMAS ! Our online store will re-open Tuesday the 17th with all croceas on sale and LOTS of ULTRA Maximas. They have been quarantined and ready to ship.
KEEP IN MIND, IT COST THE SAME TO SHIP ONE CLAM OR 9 CLAMS. Try to get your friends to order with you, thus splitting the cost of shipping. 10 clams or more, FREE shipping EXCEPT clams on sale do not qualify within the 10 min.
Don't forget to purchase the Clam Book by James Fatherree, a must for the clam keeper.

I don't mind contacting Barry and asking about how they would like to do this. Anyone have an idea where we could meet to distribute the clams? I've never done a group order before and don't know how this is done...

all you have to do is decide who/where to receive the order (preferably someone semi-centrally located, like you) when you order just put in the comments you will receive the shipment for the maast group order.

then all consecutive orders simply put maast group order and their maast name in the comments. barry will bag/box them up and label each bag with each persons username which makes it easier to pick them out when they pick them up.

i think the only thing the person ordering has to do that might be cosidered a inconvenience would be to go ahead and pay the shipping for the order and then just have each person who ordered bring their share of the total when picking up their clam (they will pay for the clam on barrys site but he has no way to and shouldnt have to know how many total will be ordered to split the shipping). at least thats how i did it when i did my group order and it couldnt have been any smoother. ive done a few group orders in my time here and his setup is the best ive seen for it, and by a country mile.

once again, it really doesnt require any coordination with barry beforehand and i would suggest doing it very soon im really surprised those maximas have lasted this long. simply decide what you want, tell barry you are the ringleader of the bunch, and tell everyone to put "maast group order: username: blahblah" in their comments" and you should be set

if you can get the order in by tomorrow and saturday delivery is an option the clams could be dispersed at the meeting sunday too. that might be a stretch though.

good luck, i might grab a maxima. i would be glad to head this up but between school and work im extremely busy nowadays
