^^^ Thank You! Yes packaging is a pain, but we ensure that the drives make it to you in great shape.

Sorry I am not doing small orders right now on these drives, Min 20 Drives. I apologize I know people want 3-4 but right now its not cost effective for us. Feel free to PM me if you are looking at quantity orders. For those of you that got in on this deal ENJOY!

I knew I shouldn't have checked this thread again...so close with 12 and will probably convince myself I can use 20.

The first listing was $159.99 plus $2.83 shipping per item.
The current listing is $159.99 plus $22.21 shipping per item.

There seems to be no bulk discount for shipping :-(
Sorry about that I only noticed shipping costs after I posted.

I thought the shipping costs were bit excessive: in USA initial drive was like $22 but when I checked the additional drive was about $2.60 each for additional postage.

I don't know how other forum members feel, but these shifting sands on the deal is a bit of a turn off.

I can understand the seller is really busy at the moment, I'm happy to wait a few weeks and see what turns up.

4 drives @ $145 each = $580 order.

20 drives @$145 each = $2900 order.

Maybe seller should consider extra discount to make it worthwhile for someone to coordinate a bulk deal.

I dunno. Anytime you can get under $200 for a quality, low use ~1TB enterprise drive it's a win. Hopefully in a year it will be $100/ TB but I doubt it.

I'd go on for 4 on a group buy.
I need four, talmania wants 12, and colpanic wants another four, that adds up to twenty in my book. I would be happy to work with you two to do a "group buy" for a lot of twenty. I'm not picky with who receives and then ships the rest out. Let me know if you two are interested, this is a great deal and I need four SSDs with plp one way or another so this saves me about half.

It also appears Hal wanted four as well. I would be fine with paying a volunteer (or we could all pay the seller directly and have them ship a single order to the volunteer) including a bit extra to re-ship. I would be glad to do it but I've only been a member for a few months so would completely understand if someone else wanted to organize this...

Maybe a groub buy for each region make sense. I live in Germany and would go for 4 SSDs.
With @Hal's 4 there are 8 to be shipped to European Union.

Anyone else EU?

What does the seller take for shipping to an US address for 20 drives?
