How to do a group buy for 5 pick place machines, printers, and reflow ovens?
(1/1)
Merlysys:
CHMT36:     2 heads + 29pcs feeders , Quantity: 1
CHMT48VA: 2 heads + Vision + 29pcs feeders , Quantity: 2
CHMT48VB: 2 heads + Vision + 58pcs feeders , Quantity: 2
T961 ovens, Quantity: 3
T962 or similar ovens, Quantity: 3
Stencil Printer ( 3040 ) , Quantity: 1
Stencil Printer ( 4432 ) , Quantity: 1

I gathered together several local people wanting to buy these for their small production run.
With prices of such machinery having come down I see many people looking into purchasing a unit so the actual quantities will likely be higher.
We have a rough idea of the price we may get which is still a lot less than ordering online, especially as most of these sellers ship by AIR only
Next step is to contact supplier in China, that is what I am not familiar with. I know about alibaba and aliexpress etc but looking at other methods to get the maximum discount.
One route is to buy directly from the factory, another is to go via an agent. Agent doesn’t necessarily mean higher cost. I am also meeting a person who often goes to China to buy items in quantity (though not PCB related)
Hoping to order by March 31st. Destination will be Toronto, Canada

Will be shipped by surface as AIR is very expensive for these bulky things. That is the reason I managed to get so many people. I am working on the legal issue so payment doesn’t go through me, thus making me not so responsible.
BrianHG:
Sorry for going all over your group buy.
Good luck in finding a few more buyers.
FrankE:
I guess they're not in stock at Groupon.
Reckless:
I will be interested in a T961 if its under $1000 USD.  I am in chicago, not far from toronto.

Hello Merlysys,

Would you or other group buyers please share your experiences with the T961 conveyor reflow oven? I'm thinking about buying one. And what was the price and supplier when you bought it in a group order?

Thanks a lot for the advice.

Cheers,
Michael
