PackJack Mobile Rear Stand Group Buy

I came across a great product and am going to organize and manage a group buy to sell to forum mates, friends and fiends alike at well under retail (about $28 depending on shipping to me plus shipping to you which should average about $7+/- in the lower 48; not sure about you Canucks). Hangers-on and fiends will have to pay a bit more. As our VTRs do not have a centerstand (and all other motorcycles without) it enables one to lube and adjust the chain/drive belt, inspect and plug tire leaks, etc., and packs down to and weighs almost nothing. I will be buying the newest version, the PackJack RS, which fits both standard swingarm right hand axle nuts/bolt heads and swingarms with spools, and everything in between. If I buy more than 20, the price will drop about 3 bucks; minimum order is 10 (7 counting me and 2 buds who are already "in").

Check them out on their website (the RS is not yet listed on it). Of the all the similar "devices" I've seen (and made myself), the PackJack by far is the BEST! And it's made by a real nice guy in Canuckland (Canada), not China.

Also ask your friends and family if they are interested, and let me know within 2 weeks (2015-05-04).

That is so simple, it's awesome! I don't really need one myself, but my Dad might be able to use it. You know, maybe my uncle as well. Count me in for 2.

Thanks all!

We need 1 more ordered for the minimum 10, or more for the base price and 11 more for the next bracket down.

I'll take two more for a total of four. That puts us at eleven according to my fingers and toes.

We were at 9 units when Twist queried the group buy status, then VTR1000F stepped up for 2 more to bring us over 10 to 11 (though I may buy 2 to now make it a dozen).

Scottiemann, if you have been following this thread, why not also step up for at least one unit???

OK, so I'm now ready to place the order but while I do generally trust my fellow forum members, it would be nice if all that are buying send me money via PayPal (as a friend or family) to flilow@sbcglobal.net. The payment for each unit should be $35 except for those buying more than 1 up to 4, then make it $28 per unit plus $8 for shipping.

When I have payments from all, I'll post up after I place the order with an ETA to me. Then again when I ship out to all.

Thanks for your interest and I want all who buy to post up a review on their PackJack!

Is it $8 for each order, or $8 for each PackJack?

I thought I was clear but to clarify, it is $35 for one Packjack including shipping and $28 per PackJack plus $8 total for shipping for up to four PackJack; i.e., 4 x $28 = $112 + $8 = $120 for 4 (if I did the math correctly).

How do these work if you don't have swingarm spools?

James, go up and reread my original post (#1) and view the video. But the new version works on both spools and axle nuts/bolt heads.

Yes, James can be a nut...

Tally To Date & Time

This is "Last Call". Twist are you "In" or not? Any other "Takers"??

If I do not hear from Twist or any new buyers by tomorrow night I'm placing an order for 13 on Wednesday morning; i.e., 12 paid for +1 extra.

Again "Last Call"


Payment Rec'd

VTR1000F 4
Cruxgnz 2
SkokieVTR 3
Xeris 1
NHSH 2


Unpaid

Twist 1

Total 13*

Note: Mudkicker & our other Canuk Bros should buy direct, as shipping from down under makes the price a "wash".

*I may buy 1 more for me and 1 or 2 more for late peeps who'll then may pay a premium for them.

From what I can tell shipping to you would be $20 + $28 = $48 plus the customs paperwork hassle. As the mfgr is Canadian, you can just order direct and it will also be $48...

let me know if I'm correct if you want to check with the USPS (they're closed today obviously)

Order Placed

13 in process of being ordered. Only then will I find out if shipping to me will be covered in the $28 base price. Price to ship to you should still be OK!

Just an update.

Due to my schedule which includes work related travel I must apologize for not shipping yet. Biggest problem is getting to the post office to pick up the correct size flat rate boxes. The ones I had are the wrong size. I'll try to get things out yet this week if my scheduled 2-day work trip is cancelled.
