groupbuy on all weather floormats

I talked to Tim at http://www.hondacuraworld.com about a groupbuy on all weather floormats. He said that he can give 10% discount for 10+ people groupbuy. If you didnt get one for free at the dealer, are you interested? The price posted at http://www.hondacuraworld.com is about $105 included shipping and handling. So, the groupbuy price is about $95 shipped. Good deal? Please reply to this thread if you're interested.

Interested. How much do they cost if you just buy them from a dealer?

interested as well....though i'm in conflict as to whether i should really spend close to $100 on floor mats.

should i get the cheaper mats at the auto stores instead?

i need a set regardless since winter and snow is only a few months away.

I got mine for $92 from the dealership but whatever you pay for them they're worth it.

ahh... great timing. I was just about to purchase some today. The all season floor mats from acura say TSX on their... I believe so I"m sure you want these rather than those from the auto store. I've been talking to this other dealer in CA about acura OEM parts, let me ask him about it.

was thinking about the trunk tray, but not really worth $90... just so things don't slide around, just place them better.

Well, if you would have done this sooner I would have gotten in on it. I already ordered them from HondAcuraworld.com and have had them for a couple of weeks now. They are nice...and keeps my carpet looking good.

Uh... I'm gonna have to wait until next payday to get the mats (1st of september). Don't know if that's too late or not. You may have to count me out. Sorry

I think I'm probably in as well. My only concern is that I have not place to store the other mats.

Apartment living is for the birds!

Btw, the trunk mat is worth having too. I go camping a lot, and the trunk mat has been great at keeping dirt and stuff out of

Count me in. I ride horses, and it only takes one bad weather day to ruin carpet mats with my boots.

FYI, I leave for Maui tomorrow morning for a week. Is it set up to purchase yet? Pay before, pay after I return?

I'm sure the groupbuy will run at least 2 weeks. You can pay by credit card, it'll take about a month until they bill you. Just a thought.

I think you'll have to deal directly to the seller. About the color, I think OEM mat only come in black.

cool!!! i wasnt planning to groupbuy since it would be easier to just pick it up from my dealer but i called and they were charging $129 p/tax for mats. it's only $90 for groupbuy plus $4 shipping, no tax. what a deal!

Dealer: $129 + $7.75tax(6%) = $136.75
Tim: $90.09 + $3.95handling = $94.04

Savings = $42.71

i also talked to tim since i had a little issue with my order and he's a cool dood! Thanks!

I just ordered mine (I picked up my car from the dealer yesterday) so I guess that makes it 24 sets.

Thanks for the savings!

I was one of the guys debating whether or not I should spend so much on floor mats.....when I got them and put them on the car, I'm so glad I did.

I was about to go out to pepboys to get the best they got, but was talked out of it by my brother in law who got the OEM mats for his MDX and am I glad he did.
