Fabrice, could you explain how the discounting works more clearly? it seems from the group buy page, https://www.eliosound.com/groupbuy
that the price of the aireq will be $107. is that the base price and then there is an additional discount once the group buy's participants are tallied, or will there be an additional cost once the participants are tallied? it seems like the latter from the website's explanation. group buys ive seen in the past have a retail price, say $100 and a chart say 10% off for ten people, 20% off for 20 people and so on but it seems your group buy works a bit differently. either way i will probably be joining in, just wanted to clear this up as it could be a bit confusing to some people such as myself. |
The original price of AirEQ is $269/€219, and the group buy reduction is applied to the original price.
i.e., the actual reduction amount is 30%, so the final price will be $188, and the actual buyers will get an additional reduction of 5%, so they will get AirEQ for $174. If the group buy reach 35%, the actual buyers will get AirEQ for $161.
At the end of the group buy, the participants will be asked to supplement the difference between the initial group buy price ($107) and the final group buy price.
I believe that most groupbuys works like this, i.e. there is an initial fee corresponding to the minimum price the first buyers would pay if the groupbuy reaches its maximum level.
I must admit that the original price is not mentionned on the group buy page, I will add this.
Hope this helps !
