Any Australians Interested in Purchasing Firefly Batteries - Sign up here.

Hi Everyone,


Coming over from the other Firefly Thread, I want to get an idea of how many people are "SERIOUSLY" Interested in Purchasing the G31 Firefly battery in the very near future within Australia.


Please either PM me or Post to this thread with:


Location
Amount of Batteries required
If you are ready for immediate purchase (relatively)


Cheers


Paul

Eight for my boat, maybe a few more for some friends or my campervan, If I have to make decision today, not more than 12. But I am sure I am able to get some others interested.

Its the cost of shipping & Importation that is the issue (read Cost), so unless you can pull together enough people to get 30 batteries then it would work out just too expensive to come as part of our purchase in Australia or directly from the supplier.

Any idea of the landed cost? I don’t need some right away, but may consider them if the cost is reasonable...

I am still waiting on a shipping cost and then will need to get all the Clearance costs.



It will also depend on if you are on the East Coast or West Coast and whether we can bring in a Pallet to the West Coast and One to the East, otherwise there is internal shipping as well.



At a guess it could be anywhere between $800 and $1000 per battery

I might be ready to buy. The price is just over $800 each, and if more than 20 batteries are delivered, well under $800, and no markup applied or profit made (by me).
Send me a PM if you want to participate.
