Hi everyone.
I'm starting a group buy on 200 glitters which is going for $200, and anyone who wants to participate, please reply to this thread. :P
After 24-48 hours or so I will count up and divide by $200, so the more people who sign up, the reasonable the price is for 200 glitters (:
Money will be sent to me beforehand by paypal please and it will take me about 1-2 weeks to complete.

Examples are around the forum but here is one anyway:
http://i10.tinypic.com/4hthy74.gif

I was thinking of categories like-:
Happy Bday
Valentines
Easter
St. Pattys Day
4th of July
Thanks For The Add
Thanksgiving
Lyrics
Compliments
Insults
Chinese New Year
... Any other ideas?
Please feel free to suggest ^_^

Thank you.
Izzy-


Edit: I am going to suggest a fee of something like $2 for all taggings of 200 glitters if needed as it is a bit of a pain (:

Precious

I'm in! :)
Everyone else should join too, so we get this really cheap! lol :)

fryman
January 5th, 2007, 06:58 PM
Im in .

Precious
January 5th, 2007, 07:00 PM
Awesome. So far only $100 each LOLOL. Hopefully a couple more jump in :)

Scilynt
January 5th, 2007, 07:00 PM
In.

As long as there is at least a small group heheh.

MrWizard
January 5th, 2007, 07:03 PM
How about a few Happy Birthday glitters!
Remember to keep the width to less than 470 for the MSRS sites.

I'm in! ( if they are tagged for my site )

Scilynt
January 5th, 2007, 07:08 PM
I don't know about the others, but I would like to have more general, commonly used, comments more than holiday comments. I would rather buy specific holiday comments when those times come up since they won't be used for a while...just my opinion ;).

PGZ
January 5th, 2007, 07:10 PM
Im in also........

Precious
January 5th, 2007, 07:10 PM
So, am I counting correctly - 4 so far? :) $50 each! :)

*edit*
5 lol

Izzy
January 5th, 2007, 07:10 PM
Wow, I didn't expect so many replies and I have got what I have needed in a time span of 10/20minutes from the 24-48 hours.

I am going to close this now if it's okay with you lot.

Precious
January 5th, 2007, 07:11 PM
You should wait to see if some more want to join... It's ecspecially a good idea to end on an even number. :)

You probably should keep it open the full 48 hours! :) or atleast 24 :)

Izzy
January 5th, 2007, 07:13 PM
Hmm....
I think it be better as it is now, as it still remains pretty exclusive but one more will be okay lol. (:


Edit://
200 divided by 5 people = $40
200 divided by 6 people=$33.33

Precious
January 5th, 2007, 07:15 PM
I would prefer it more people were able to join so we could save a little more and you would still be getting the same amount....

But, that's up to you and the other members. That was just my thought. :)

Scilynt
January 5th, 2007, 07:17 PM
Would be nice to have a few extra people to bring down the price for everyone. Would still be pretty exclusive while everyone gets a great deal and comes back for the next pack ;).

Izzy
January 5th, 2007, 07:17 PM
40 dollars for 200 glitters is pretty cheap already I would say :p
But that's just me, i'll wait for more feedback (: Thanks.

Scilynt
January 5th, 2007, 07:20 PM
Oh I agree, it's a great deal and besides losing some of the "exclusivity", I think most buyers would want to pay less. There should be a cutoff or it doesn't make as much sense for you and that is only fair. But on the other hand, there may be a lot of people that want in on the deal and since spots went so fast they will be left out. Maybe bump the pack up some as you let more people in? That way the total revenue goes up some but so does the content so everyone makes out some?

Izzy
January 5th, 2007, 07:23 PM
Oops, reading from MrWizard's post, I totally forgot to say that about the tagging; tagging 200 x like 6 is going to be a pain. However, I could sort something out, maybe a $2 fee (or something like that) or just tag them yourselves? :p

Scilynt
January 5th, 2007, 07:25 PM
that sounds fair to me.

Precious
January 5th, 2007, 07:27 PM
So $2 each to get all 200 tagged? I think i'm a little confused. lol

Also, I agree with

Oh I agree, it's a great deal and besides losing some of the "exclusivity", I think most buyers would want to pay less.

But I don't want to over work her, because I know personally that glitters take A LONG time to make! SO whatever you decide is fine with me - just keep me updated!

MrWizard
January 5th, 2007, 07:28 PM
1. If tagging is not included I'm out.
2. I would like to see this remain open the 48 hours so we can get the best deal.

Thanks,

Izzy
January 5th, 2007, 07:30 PM
I meant $2 for all of it. (tagging)
Okay, I understand.

I think 6 sounds pretty good to me, but most of you disagree hehe. Uhm.
Well if MrWizard is out then there are at least 2 spots each.
I kind of feel that 200 glitters for that amount of money is really cheap :p



I will have future deals for whoever is left out :p

fryman
January 5th, 2007, 07:34 PM
I can tag them myself, no need for that on my side

Izzy
January 5th, 2007, 07:35 PM
Oh alright, that's fine :)

Precious
January 5th, 2007, 07:36 PM
Maybe you should do atleast 8 - that's an even $25 each. I mean the reason we do the group buys is so we can get a HOTT A*S*S deal. :)

Izzy
January 5th, 2007, 07:37 PM
Okay, how about 6 or 8? (depends who is going to come in hehe)
So at least 2 left, if anybody else is going to be here.
I will be going now and checking in the morning.

fryman
January 5th, 2007, 07:38 PM
yeah, something like 20-25 bucks would be perfect for a group buy

money_train
January 5th, 2007, 07:38 PM
just squeeze me in and close it.

Izzy
January 5th, 2007, 07:39 PM
Now there's 5 :)

Do you mean close it, close it? :P

Precious
January 5th, 2007, 07:42 PM
No... Wait until it's at about $20-25.

money_train
January 5th, 2007, 07:42 PM
i didnot read the whole thread
i was thining you are limiting this to 4 or five buyers.

i would suggest you make a list and post it here.

its easier to count that way.
i am in for sure.
just let me know how much and when to send the money.

Izzy
January 5th, 2007, 07:43 PM
I think $20 is a going a bit too cheap for me.
Okay I think i'm gonna close this at 6 buyers as i'm pretty sure that's a really reasonably good deal (:


1 more.

So i've got;

Your still getting $200 either way, it just makes it better for the buyers.
Just wishing you good luck. The more people you have, the better it is on the buyers end, and no matter how many people you sell to, its still going to be $200.

dzerv
January 5th, 2007, 07:48 PM
i am in also

Izzy
January 5th, 2007, 07:48 PM

so if there is one more then:
$25 each.
then we will get on to sorting out categories. thank you.

PGZ
January 5th, 2007, 08:05 PM
Come on 1 more person.....................

Izzy
January 5th, 2007, 08:07 PM
Yep. :P
Well to get the category chat started, we could have maybe 3/4 of general commenting and a 1/4 of holiday stuff or something.
Can split into groups of 20 each category or something.
:)

Buyers, please PM me who would like tagging for all of them for $2 so I can note them down. Thanks.

Danago
January 5th, 2007, 08:10 PM
ill go in as the 8th.

The only thing is, my paypal account is a few dollars short of $25, and it will take a few days for the money to transfer from my bank to paypal.

If thats a problem, then somebody else can take my place, but otherwise, id love to be in.

Izzy
January 5th, 2007, 08:12 PM
Thank you. All places have been filled. 25 dollars for each (:

Thanks

I think we should be able to add everyone who wants to join in now. :)

January 6th, 2007, 05:06 AM
Izzy, please pm me if this deal (or similar) comes round again. thnx

Precious
January 6th, 2007, 06:39 AM
Okay, so if she let everyone else join in too (Which I hope, and i'm sure all other group buyers hope as well) then we each would only have to pay

$15.39

If you let one more person join (making it 14 total) then we each would pay
$14.29

Sounds like an awesome deal. If I can get it at this price, I will DEF. be back for more! lol

Izzy
January 6th, 2007, 07:58 AM
I'm going to close this specific deal at 8 buyers, but please look out for future group buys. (:
But I will inform anybody first who has posted from this deal, thanks very much & i'm overwhelmed by the responses! :)

Maybe we could do like 10/15/20 each. (maybe some are more important than others)
Suggested ones-
Happy Bday
Valentines
Easter
St. Pattys Day
4th of July
Thanks For The Add
Thanksgiving
Lyrics
Compliments
Insults
Chinese New Year


Anymore?

Izzy
January 6th, 2007, 03:27 PM
Okay. Someone has backed out, so I will let miller2348 in.
I really do need suggestions for categories thanks.

If I was to do 10 of each--
It could be something like,
Happy Bday, Valentines, Easter, St. Pattys Day, 4th of July, Thanks For The Add, Thanksgiving, Lyrics, Compliments, Insults, Chinese New Year, Talk to you later,
Have a nice weekend, Whats up?, Hey, Bye, You're on my top *number*,_____,____,____.
What else?

Better offer less categories and more selection of each, a site with lots of categories but low amount of glitters looks much worse than one with lots to pick from

Izzy
January 6th, 2007, 03:31 PM
What would you suggest groups of?
Maybe 10 categories and 20 glitters in each.

fryman
January 6th, 2007, 03:33 PM
yeah, that would be better

Izzy
January 6th, 2007, 03:34 PM
Great!
Maybe more feedback but IF we was to have 10 categories, what 10 would be best for you?

TripleX
January 6th, 2007, 04:04 PM
how much is it to get in?
i might take for my site
watermarked save me some work

Izzy
January 6th, 2007, 04:12 PM
^Buyer spots have all been filled for this deal. Sorry. ):

miller2348
January 6th, 2007, 07:09 PM
Count me in. I'd agree with having 10 categories of 20 in each. As for categories, I like these suggested above:
Happy Bday, Thanks For The Add, Compliments, Talk to you later, Have a nice weekend, Whats up?, Hey, Bye, You're on my top *number*

Optionals for me are the seasonal ones as they are only good for a short period of time like: Easter, St. Pattys Day, 4th of July.

I'll take any of the above and be happy with it, just my 2 cents if it's worth anything.

Izzy
January 6th, 2007, 07:16 PM
Thanks for the suggestions miller2348. I will try and put them towards the final decision, depending on other buyer's choice.
Thank you.

fryman
January 6th, 2007, 07:17 PM
You're on my top *number*

Do people use those? I have never seen anything like that on any profile

Izzy
January 6th, 2007, 07:18 PM
^ Hmm, I've seen them around before.

miller2348
January 6th, 2007, 07:19 PM
Another category is something of the "your sexy" type nature.

I've never seen anyone use the "your on my top..." but then again I don't have any either.

fryman
January 6th, 2007, 07:21 PM
Yeah, those you're hot comments are quite popular

PGZ
January 6th, 2007, 07:22 PM
Doesnt matter to me whatever they want Im in for......

Izzy
January 6th, 2007, 07:22 PM
How about instead of the *number*, something like you're hot, you're cute, you're sexy. (in compliments)?


edit:// I have sent PMs for confirms.
Some have paid, but you can pay after we have sorted out the categories.

Also, since 'holidays' are like a one off thing. Maybe 8 categories of general and 2 holiday category genres like Valentines and...something?
Everyone else please tell me which categories you would like also, as most of us would probably like it asap and moving ^_^

Scilynt
January 6th, 2007, 09:23 PM
Count me in. I'd agree with having 10 categories of 20 in each. As for categories, I like these suggested above:

I'll take any of the above and be happy with it, just my 2 cents if it's worth anything.I like those catagories...just more everyday type comments that will be used more often. I would rather not have any holidays in a set like this since most of us are buying up packs specific for those as we will all year long. But good popular comments are more useful for everyone all year :).

money_train
January 6th, 2007, 11:19 PM
i would like something out of the box.
no more valentine or love glitters.
lets go for some insults, flirts, US states or something.
i would also appreciate if atleast 50% of these have images embedded in them

i am ok with what ever the others agree to otherwise i am not fussy when it comes to content sourcing.

fryman
January 6th, 2007, 11:19 PM
Yeah, that is important, glitter words with only text can be boring, images are good to use

Izzy
January 7th, 2007, 05:05 AM
Yep, most of them will have some sort of image on them. At the moment, I only use brushes... any clipart sites that I could use or something as well?

Yes, maybe no holiday ones in this pack, just 10 general and used popular comments.
Happy Bday, Thanks For The Add, Compliments, Flirts, Talk to you later, Have a nice weekend, Whats up?, Hey, Bye.
That's 10....

You're on my top *number* isn't really actually used I wouldn't think, so it's not too popular?

money_train
January 7th, 2007, 07:48 PM
these are good for me.
i am also suggesting some insults as well.

Izzy
January 8th, 2007, 12:06 AM
Happy Bday, Thanks For The Add, Compliments, Flirts, Talk to you later, Have a nice weekend, Whats up?, Hey, Bye.

What could we exchange 'insults' with?

miller2348
January 8th, 2007, 05:34 AM
You have 9 listed, insults would be the 10th right? That looks like a good list to get started.

Izzy
January 8th, 2007, 07:47 AM
Oh yeh. I could get started now (:

Izzy
January 8th, 2007, 11:29 AM
Happy Bday, Thanks For The Add, Compliments, Flirts, Talk to you later, Have a nice weekend, Whats up?, Hey, Bye, Insults.

I'm going to PM all 8 buyers for remaining payment and ask if they're alright with this, as this isn't moving.
Might be a quicker process.

(: Thankyou.

Izzy
January 18th, 2007, 01:30 PM
Completed all glitters. Now I will sort our tagging.
I will send over untagged ones to buyers who don't need it.

Tagging will probs take me a couple of days as I have a lot to do, so please be patient. Thank you ^_^
(Buyers who want untagged AND tagged, please wait, I will send them to you at the same time)

miller2348
January 18th, 2007, 02:27 PM
