SOLD OUT! -- thank you -- 3 ounces of Nyogel 760G for $12, postage included -- U.S. only

I want a tube.

Five down, 10 to go! Thanks everyone!

I’m in for one. Thank you very much, Ubehebe. Awesome gesture for your BLF friends!

This is a decent price for BLF’ers, but aren’t you the individual that bought the last 16 tubes (14+2) - at $1.99/each - from the ebay seller seen here?

… or just coincidence?

Who cares where he got it ?

Do you plan on buying a tube, or are you simply posting to cast aspersions on the seller's motivations?

>>>>>>>>>>but aren’t you the individual that bought the last 16 tubes (14+2) – at $1.99/each

The problem with unfounded accusations is that no matter what the accused does, he comes off looking like an ass. If I say nothing, some will question why I didn’t defend myself. But if I do defend myself, I lower myself to the petty level of the accuser. Oh well, here goes.

I have ABSOLUTELY nothing to hide.

My costs:

1. $1.99 per tube

2. $1.33 per tube shipping from original seller (not reflected in the sales price posted by Mr. Flash.Light because the seller billed me for the postage AFTER I bought the Nyogel. And the negotiated LOWER postage was how I got the better price. The seller was originally asking $42 for postage, and I got it down to half that by buying ALL he had, which I explain in my original post. I bought the original first two tubes for myself and THEN thought it might be a good deal for BLF if I could get the price low enough on the remaining tubes).

3. $5.15 for flat-rate priority mail shipping on each tube to BLF buyers.

4. $0.72 in Paypal fees for each tube sold.

So I paid $9.19 (or will pay with the included shipping) per tube, which makes my so-called profit a whopping $2.81.

But that’s really not a profit at all. Because just like everyone here on BLF, my profit is a function of billable time. After I WASHED the tubes (yes some were dirty, so I washed them AND dried them); process and keep track of orders; buy the labels; address all the labels; pay for the plastic bags and bubble wrap for each tube; time spent packaging the tubes; pay for gas to drive the 30 minutes to and from the PO a bunch of times; spend MORE time standing in line at the post office (because of homeland security, packages MUST be delivered to the post office and cannot be placed in a mail box for pickup) — I’ll end up breaking even or making literally a few cents.

If anyone feels that I am overcharging for the Nyogel, i will gladly refund their money.

But the part that really puzzles me is why slam someone who is selling a product cheaper than anywhere else on the planet? Even if i WAS making $11 a tube, it would still be a great deal. Like Chicago X asked: “Why?”

Who cares where I got the Nyogel (as long as it was legally obtained). I just don’t understand why someone would criticize me for trying to break even and not lose money.

As I said, no good deed goes unpunished.

Wow, washed and dried!? Thank you, Ubehebe!

I’ll take a tube if there are still some left. Seems like a great price, plus I accidentally bought silicone grease at around the same price and that wasn’t very nice to my lights. I’ll probably keep the silicone grease to smooth out rough threads and use this stuff for the actual lubrication.

Hey, I love capitalism and I think profit is great. If you can make a buck or two, more power to ya!

BTW, Ubehebe-

Did I miss it? How do we pay you for it? Will you PM us an e-mail addy for paypal or is there another means you want us to use? Maybe I missed that part?

Sorry, Ubehebe. i just saw the PM you sent me last night. Disregard question above. PM sent.

I have 6 left and 9 sold. Thanks to everyone for buying !

Some people are just sending me PMs rather than posting here. That’s fine also.

I’ll post here when they’re all gone.

Thanks again!

Paid for one. E-mail sent. Posting to make counting easier.

Thank you!

I was a bit worried when I first read the title to this thread, thought that nyogel was some sort of explosive!

"I want a tube"

I bought a 2 oz tube of 760G from BatteryJunction.com one year ago for $15 + shipping, and I love the stuff and was highly recommended! It was the best price at the time I could find. So, 3 oz for $12 including shipping is a great deal. It's roughly 1/2 price.

Thanks!

Still have 4 tubes left.

All paid orders have shipped priority mail so buyers should receive their tubes o’ lube by this weekend. If you paid, you should have received a Paypal/USPS notification with tracking numbers.

If you pay for a tube today, it will ship today or tomorrow, depending on what time of day you pay.

Thanks again to everyone.

I am in for ONE. pm sent.

He got them and he is paying for envelopes, stamps, gas, shipping time and address writing, pm’s, time, effort, and much more……

to investigate and find out that it is the same as nyogel, which is valuable info.

just an fyi, if you print postage labels at home (you can use usps click and ship), you don’t have to wait in line at the post office. you can drop them at the counter, or in a mailbox. it save a lot of time, at least here, where there seems to usually be a line at the post office.

Sent PP and within an hour I received my tracking number.

Talk about FFFFFAST service!!!

Thank you Ubehebe
