MYT group buy starts

The group buy will start probably tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.

New deadline is August 18th midnight PDT.

Roughly, I think this is how it will work:

Everyone creates an account on the MYT online store

You send me the name under which you registered at their store. I'll send the list of names to MYT

Julia from MYT adds us RedUsers to a special group (you will only see discounted pricing once she has placed you in the group)

MYT will use the assumed quantity bracket of 25-30 orders [see blog for the discount percentage], but we only need to reach 20 orders!

RedUsers browse, viewing discounted pricing on available items

We purchase online with the discounted pricing, and hopefully we reach the 20 orders.

If not enough orders come in, the money will be refunded. If more orders come in, we either get money back or a discount for the next purchase. Will ask MYT again about it.

Given how many messages I got in the lat days, I'm pretty confident that we reach at least 20 orders, probably even more than 25!

MYT Works won the poll!

50% of us voted for the MYT Works offer which led to a clear winner, with Floatcam's offer on a strong second place.

I opened now a new thread on reduser where Julia and Etienne from MYT Works and myself will post all the information about how the group buy will work.

GL Optics Sigma 18-35 rehoused

UPDATE: The group buy is over, but you can find more info about the lens on my store, where you can also order it. Please send me a mail if you any questions about this or other GL optics lenses.

I'm in contact with Nan from GL optics for several months now because of a group buy of rehoused Leica lenses (have a look at this thread).


Nan wrote me today a mail that he's also offering now a rehoused version of the popular Sigma 18-35.

Given that so many reduser want to get this lens, I asked him whether he might be interested in doing a group buy on it and he agreed.


I'll post his offer later this week password encrypted here on my blog, like I did for the steadicam and slider group buy (the slider group buy is still open, by the way).


Send me a pm on reduser.net if you're interested in the group buy to get the password for the offer

For more updates, check the reduser thread about his group buy.

All offers are in. You can now vote for your favorite offer. I'll contact next week the elected manufacturer to start the group buy. Please vote only if you're serious about purchasing a slider
