Seat Air Intake Group Buy, All refunded and sent. Pls PM if any questions
Okay people, there has been a deveopement unfortuneatly. Becuase there has bee such a large intere in the part not only here but OS as well. SEAT in all there wisdom has decided to double the price of the Hose part. This means instead of them costing 25ukp, they are now costing 52.06ukp. The trumpet is unchanged at 13.82UKP. (which is reduced from 25ukp)
52.06 plus 13.82 = 65.88UKP which is approx $184aud Landed Each. (depending on current exchange rates) And thats just to Australia then i have to ship them to your door which will be about $10 - 15aud.
Now as far as i can see we have two options.
1. Those who want one can pay me the rest of the money.
2. those who dont can have a refund. (which i totally understand)
Now im extremely sorry for all the hassles this has caused. I have spent hours trying to get these for you guys and now it has tuned belly up. Please post any questions and what you think. I am at work so wont beon the computer until this arvo.
edit. even the SEAT dealer is annoyed. As he didnt know about the price increase unil he recieved our first order of 10 from the factory. Thank goodness he was a nice enough bloke to tell us what had happened before putting it on the credit card. So now the poor dealer has 10 air intakes just sitting on his shelf.
edit 2. - Can everyone please get back to me ASAP either by pm or post here. thank you

Personally I'm not going to pay $194 for a piece of plastic that isn't going to give me car that much in performance. At $100 it was acceptable but these things happen.
There was talk of a BMC Filter group buy. Have you got any news on that? If you were to organise it then you can keep my money for that.
I know i'm a bit late but have just found this site & joined - can you put me down for one even with the price increase? If someone pulls out or something?
Let me know how much more is required and i'll flick it across. Its only a hundred bucks more, if i was that worried about that value i wouldn't have spent it in the first place... the car is pretty good as is... we are just on the lookout for perfection... and perfection costs.
Just spent remainder of this month's fun budget on a $788 deal for a Dell 2407WFP, so must wait a couple of weeks to afford the price increase. Am keen to do it but if it'll hold everyone else up I'll accept a refund.

lol i am in the same boat as you....i just bought myself a head unit and speakers and now i am maxing out my credit card! ... the rise puts a dent in my already dented budget..
Im out as well due to the increase. Id rather put that money towards something like springs or a ecu upgrade then bits of plastic.
Thanks for all your troubles tho.
Current - MY12 MK6 GTI, CW, Detriots, dark tint, APR Stage 1, blacked out grille, LED tails, Euro plates, suspension "tweaked", VCDS tweaks
"The Ex" Black MY08 POLO GTI - APR,Coilovers,5% tint,stubby antenna, rear sway bar
I'm keen to get in, but I really pushed the budget with the Dell 24" - was supposed to buy that one with the tax return, but didn't want to say no to the $220 discount on top of the $300 one already in the system.
Latest date I'd have the difference is Friday 13th, hopefully earlier in the week or the week before.
