OK - It's all official
The GB is now on :thumbsup:
These lenses will be made in BOTH blue and clear so whatever you are after it will be catered for
I will have a set for test fitting hopefully by Friday next week
When i have these i will post pics for valuational purposes both installed and by themselves
PRICING
These items will cost $30US+ shipping a set - That's for both left and right lenses
UPDATE
If we have more than 10 sets sold price will come down to $25US :)
These lenses will clip straight into your door trims WITHOUT any modifications neccasary as they are manufactured from a mould that is getting made this week from my lenses
This means either though lenses are different colour they will have the EXACT same pattern and look as your factory originals
EXPECTED DATE
As mentioned i should have first set for trial by end of next week - Friday hopefully
After the initial inspection and test fitment if all is well they will be put into full swing and we should start seeing them within a week after that
So on this note i'm going to say roughly 2-3 weeks from now and we should be nearly ready to ship
PAYMENTS
There will be no money getting sent until i have these items in my lil paws as this will save any anguish that might occur if there is any delays
When payment is due i'll PM everyone my PayPal details (if i can remember them myself?)
SHIPPING
For shipping purposes i think it would be best to find a mutual member/person over there to accept responsibility to despatch these on once they get there - This would be the most cost effective way but if you guys disagree then i'll have to taylor quote each individual with a shipping cost to there door
So there you have it
I'll post up any updates as i get them to keep you all informed
Please post which colour and how many sets you are after and i'll update list accordingly
If you're interested but not quite sure for some reason then post details and i'll put a TBC beside you
TBC - To Be Confirmed
Happy Modding

We need to start a discussion on this
Everyone in the GB needs to post there thoughts on this if they'd like to do it this way or pay extra for single direct postage
So everyone in on GB - What are your thoughts?
slvrsleeper
06-15-2004, 11:23 AM
If the options are send it to Snowman= no additional cost to me OR send it directly to me at additional cost I say send it to Snowman. My 2 cents

Are you guys having the clear ones in the back? or just the fronts have it, I never really noticed...on my own car
2XDreme
06-16-2004, 05:50 AM
I'm not sure on costs for individual shipping but in theory it would be much cheaper to send 1 package than say 10 or more
If they were sent to snowman then you'd have to arrange to either pic them up from him or have him post to you (assumeadly at extra cost but would have to cheaper than me sending them from here)
playboy
My car doesn't have ones in the back - does yours?
I will be purchasing new GLS interior soon so if yours does then i'd say our GLS would
For those who don't know Aussie XD GLS is your GT and Aussie GL is your GLS
ButterBean
06-16-2004, 12:03 PM
It seems to me that shipping it all together to one person would make the most sense. That way there is only one tracking number to get it here, instead of however many different packages.
Might take a few days longer to get to us, but I think it would be easier
CornbreadXD
06-16-2004, 12:33 PM
Im in I want 1 blue set please
2XDreme
06-25-2004, 06:25 AM
OK - Just had quick look at Australia Post website and a package sent by air mail that weighs 5kg will cost $78.50AUD $54.05USD
I would be VERY suprised if our package would weigh anywhere near this so this is worse case scenario i would think
This will also have the lenses there in around 3-8 days after posting
I'll hunt around here for a box big enough to ship them and weigh it and when i get test lense this week i'll also weigh them to figure out exact weight so i can get you all firm price
UPDATE 19/06/04
Rang David this morning and was told moulds were nearly finished and to expect some samples by mid next week
Nearly there peoples ;)
UPDATE 25/06/04
After not hearing from him this week i gave him another call and was informed test samples should be ready to post to me early next week - hopefully Monday or Tuesday
As soon as i get these samples i'll post pics for all to see :thumbsup:
Not long now - Hopefully

if it isn't too late, put me on for a set of clear
ever get the test fitting? depending on how they look i might get a clear set...
2XDreme
07-05-2004, 04:03 AM
No not yet - it's lil late here now but i'll try to give him a call
Check back tomorrow for update
As far as looks go they should look exactly the same as the standard ones but in clear or blue

I'd like to know if the clear or blue lens greatly increases the amount of light shed on the ground. I like the idea of all lights from the rear being red, but the clear or blue lenses can add a cool effect.

I would say if you put clear ones in with high intensity LED bulb then it would shed a hell of a lot more light on ground
UPDATE
Clear lenses are made!!! :clap:
I rang David today and was informed test samples are ready so gave him my shipping address and he was going to send out to me to evaluate
So on this note there will be pics of the clear items coming within next 2 days
Couldn't make a test blue set as he has to order the pigment for them
From what he told me they came out awesomely :D
Can't wait to see
SuperGLS
07-06-2004, 08:50 PM
I was just thinking today... any chance on getting some tinted ones? You know, like clear but tinted grayish black? Does that make any senes? Haha. Anyway, if I'm too late it's no problem. Can't wait to see pics.

07-06-2004, 10:46 PM
The clear are sounding more and more enticing. I might be down for a set. I have to know your opinion on the quality first.

you could prob tint the clear ones with same spray you use to tint tail lights i would assume
I have to know your opinion on the quality first.
I will be giving this along with plenty pics on diffeent angles so everyone can get an idea how good they are

Will be either 25 or 26US + shipping costs
I was also looking at doing purple and i came up with an idea you might be interested in
i was going to paint the inside bit behind lense bright white and put a blacklight in there so it would come out purple
i'm sure you could buy an LED in black and modify to fit as i was going to do
im in to, i kinda wanted the blue lense but i can hopefuly find a blue bulb or somthing
Blue lenses will be still made just the clear ones were made first as he needs to order some blue pigment
So whatever color your after is fine
OOOOhhhh shucks, can't do it this time around (mod money spent this month already)....maybe next time, hoping there is a next time.
No excuses my man :fiddle: :D
These will hopefully be ready to ship to you guys within couple weeks
Surely you could come up with it if you wanted them ;)
UPDATE
As stated if there weren't here by today i was going to drive out there and get them - Which i have done :D
I have taken pics of these and they will be posted up here as soon as photobucket work out there problem on site - for some reason i can't upload at moment :mad:
What i can tell you though is they have turned out awesomely
When i held them side by side you couldn't tell them apart besides one being red and other clear
Holding one in my hand as we speak and i can only describe as BEAUTIFUL :tongue:
The underside has the same texture and pattern as original and the top side is silky smooth and very shiny
Will post pics as soon as i can
So now i need to know who is in and who is out - These will be ready for postage early August in either clear or blue
Price will be 25US pair + shipping
Attached these images till i figure out what's going on with photobucket

DAMN. Those look perfect. Tell me when and where to send the money.
2XDreme
07-13-2004, 08:27 AM
There as close to perfect as you can get if not infact perfect
I've been looking at one beside me ALL night trying to pic a flaw but i can't
After Dave looked at my car again today and noticed how big the holes were where these clip into he is going to make the mounting lugs a lil thicker - So infact they should be better than standard
No money will be sent until i have them here - That means i will be paying for these upfront so there will be NO delays on shipping after i gather everyones money
I think this is best option as last thing i or you need is delays after you've paid your $$$
When time comes in early August when these are all ready i'll supply PayPal addy
I've reposted the list over to here

replied to your PM but for people here i will tell you what i told Jlivan
I will be going to post office on weekend to get a postage box for these and get firm price on how much it will cost to send it over there
If you all agree with snowman recieving and despatching them to you all then i'll need him to PM me his postal info for firm price
Personally i can't see costing more than $1ea in postage to snowman then you guys liasing with him for postal or pick up over there
02coolchris
Yeah i will do a DIY on these but really is so straight forward i don't think it will really be needed
jameswing
The blue will roughly be same shade as our police sirens over here which is a deep sorta blue

SHIPPING FEES
OK i didn't get to post office today as i'm not feeling best - Someone gave me flu :(
So what i did was get onto Australia post website and use there postage calculator
AIR EXPRESS - Delivered in 3-10 days
750g - 1000g = $22.50AUD $16.46USD
1750 - 2000g = $42.50AUD $31.10USD
Now i have no idea on what these are going to way so can't give definate price as of yet
What i will do is take a lense to friends house and weigh it up - Times that by how many there will be in parcel and allow 500g for wrapping etc
I think i can say with confidence it won't be anywhere near 2kg though
04GTboySC
07-17-2004, 07:23 AM

<whoo hoo i just became a junior member with this post)
2XDreme

Fixed now
So as you can all see should be less than $1ea on shipping to Snowman then you guys arranging with him for either postage or pick up from him

08-03-2004, 12:26 PM

Snowman
08-03-2004, 04:14 PM
Does anyone here even read the messages??
QUOTE" Posted July 30th friday"
I should have all clear ones in my possession by end next week and prob nother week for blue ones
As soon as everyone is paid up i'll ship out straight away as want to send everyones out at once to keep shipping down
"End Quote"
He said it will be about 2 weeks till he gets them all in his posession therefore he cant ship them yet. so look for them to ship after the 2 weeks is up.
Some people here need ot read before they post

Oops, I have offically lost all track of time. I forgot that I had only paid 4 days ealier, and didn't look at the date tag. It seemed a lot longer, stuff is going crazy here, and I can't keep track of anything.
Sorry bout the mix up 2XDreme, Your doing us all a favor here, keep up the good work.
hey Snowman, thanks for bringing me back to reality:)
2XDreme
08-08-2004, 10:28 PM
do we still have some left over just wondering, blue or clear
Yeah still have couple available in either blue or clear
If you want in then PM me and i'll send you my PayPal addy
Snowman
Thanks for replying for me buddy ;)
Also on side note those who HAVE NOT paid by time i have them all here will have to pay more for personalised shipping to there address as i WILL be shipping these markers out the very moment i have them
UPDATE 9/8/04
Rang David today and was informed there are 6-7 pairs of clears ready to go :D
Letting you all know exactly what he told me so there's no confusion between anyone
He can only make 1 pair a day out of moulds hence why taking so long, if 1 of these pairs don't come out right then there is a day lost
Saying this when your lenses do arrive you can be assured of there quality as he is inspecting each set personally as they come out of moulds for any defects
I know this means there will be a lil timely delay in shipping but if everyone is ok with this then we'll be fine
I will be picking the first 10 sets of clear up hopefully this weekend and posting pics so everyone in on this GB can see first hand that everything is happening
Havro
08-16-2004, 02:59 PM
just wondering if there is a time frame when they will be shipped?
2XDreme
08-16-2004, 03:23 PM
I will ring him today and find out where he is with them
If he has at least 10 sets there ready i will go pick them up and post pics
Let you know outcome by tomorrow

2XDreme
08-17-2004, 01:02 AM
I had the oppurtunity to go into partnership with PSC but decided against it
I have come to know Bretton pretty well and support his new venture
I will be talking to him this weekend about something (can't say just yet) that will give me access to lot of information regarding prices etc
count me in, its sure i want them
is the group buy still on ?
2XDreme
08-18-2004, 11:12 PM
Yes still open - i sent you payment details didn't i?
yeah, i sent you a PM did you received it, i was wondering if i pay the shipping to you and id like to know if its the same price to ship in canada ! cause you said we pay you and "supergls" take care of shipping ... so do i pay supergls for shipping or its included in the price ? I really want them, it will replace the custom ones i built ... :)

08-19-2004, 07:26 AM
The $27 price covers the cost of the lense with shipping to SuperGLS
From there you will need to arrange with SuperGLS the cost of getting from him to you
This will be far cheaper than me sending from here i'm sure
04GTboySC
08-19-2004, 10:06 AM
hehe im good with shipping i live 45 minutes from super GLS :) woot he is one cool guy
SuperGLS
08-19-2004, 09:39 PM
I'll figure out the shipping later. But it shouldn't be more than $3. We'll see when it comes time.
Havro
08-20-2004, 11:08 AM

no we still have 4 people unpaid
Had word that all clears should be done this week :D

08-20-2004, 11:33 AM
how bout blue's?
2XDreme
08-20-2004, 11:35 AM
As soon as clears are done blues get started but no where near as many blues so won't take as long
04GTboySC
08-20-2004, 11:52 AM
ok cool, sorry i bugged you :(
2XDreme
08-20-2004, 12:17 PM
It's cool man ;)
money sent ! :) for 1 set of clear
??? we dont hear more about it ? I sent money 2 days ago and still no news ! ??? you didn't put my name in the list ...
2XDreme
08-25-2004, 08:03 AM
Elpi - You are on the list man
Go back 1 page and look at current lists
I'm still waiting for phone call to come pick em up
Might even call him myself tomorrow to get latest info
2XDreme
08-26-2004, 07:00 AM
Rang him today and was informed that all he had to do was trim around the mounting plugs on the clear items and there done
So said he would try get this done tomorrow if not early next week
Still waiting for blue pigment to come in as it's coming from overseas somewhere
Will be talking to him again face to face very soon so will see how long till he expects pigment to arrive
If it's going to long wait then then i will give everyone who wants blue items 3 options
1 - Swap for clear items
2 - Wait for blue pigment to arrive
3 - Refund your money
Will know more on this when i see him
Hopefully he will have blue pigment by time i go see him though ;)

I'll take a set of clear if it's not too late please.

08-26-2004, 07:41 AM
i'll swap to clear if its gona be a long time. im totally sick of the red and the clear will accent the side marker lights and such im going to be doing when time and money come lol
2XDreme
08-26-2004, 07:49 AM
GT you have PM
04GT - Will swap you if wait is too long, hopefully will know by Monday
04GTboySC
08-26-2004, 08:05 AM
You dont have to wait if you have the white ones ready.
2XDreme
08-26-2004, 08:28 AM
I'll wait as this is when i will prob get in there to pick first batch clears up plus find out from everyone else what they wanna do
If everyone wants clears if wait too long then will need lil longer for those ones to be made
As you know these are only made by order not kept in stock ;)
04GTboySC
08-26-2004, 11:55 AM
grrr ur mean for not ordering extra, jking man least there's progress :)
jameswing
08-26-2004, 12:35 PM
There will be no money getting sent until i have these items in my lil paws as this will save any anguish that might occur if there is any delays
When payment is due i'll PM everyone my PayPal details (if i can remember them myself?)
I thought this ment that they would all be finished before you had us pay, Now it's been 3 weeks, and we're not even close to getting the blues.
2XDreme
08-26-2004, 02:51 PM
That was original intention jameswing but manufacturer decided to do things differently when it came time to make them

I was talking to another Hyundia supplier (named removed to protect the hated<grin> ) who tried was explaining all the obsticles <sp> encountered when trying to get a small quanity of items together. It is amazing, you are actually not doing bad, even thought it is "just" a plastic lense, who would have thought of all the things that got in the way.
Keep up the good work & don't let us down<grin>.
Also 2XDreme I have to get back to you on my PM, I have been working too much & have not had time to follow up. I think you understand LOL

Any word on how much longer on the blues? If I get a timeframe I might switch to clear but i really want blue
Jlivan

2XDreme
09-10-2004, 07:09 PM
ok i will hold shipping till next weekend to wait and see what's happening with the blue ones
i will only delay this shipping once so if no word on exactly when blues will be available it will be up to you to decide if you want set of clears sent out with rest
David went through all the lenses for a final inspection before packaging and a few sets were discarded for couple air bubbles so he will be replacing these in next few days with ones in perfect nick as we expect :)
Whilst talking to David yesterday he still wasn't sure when the pigments were supposed to arrive so he was going to chase his supplier up to try and get a confirmed supply date and will let me know when i go there mid next week
04GTboySC

They will all be shipped to SuperGLS as was going to cost me over $200 to send to everyone individually
They are boxed ready to go i just need to print out everyones details so James knows who's is who's
My landlady is going to post office to post them for me tommorrow so hopefully James should see them within week

SuperGLS
09-24-2004, 05:03 PM
To let everyone know, I don't think the shipping/packaging will be more than $2 each, so that's probably what I'll be charging (or $2.25 because of Paypal charges).
I'll see for sure when I get the lenses.
04GTboySC
09-24-2004, 05:27 PM
hey super let me know when u get them and i can come pcik mine up:)
there was no additional charge to you d2xtreme?

If you have the Red one already what would the color look like if you put a blue light bulb in would it look purple or would it give the color like the red and blue Led does.

I'll ask landlady tomorrow when she gets back if she has tracking number or anything for them

SuperGLS
10-08-2004, 11:44 PM
I'll definately let everyone know when they get here, but as of right now they haven't arrived. Whoever mailed them didn't send them on a boat, did they? Because, that's the only way I could imagine it taking so long. I know when I priced out my floor mats to Puerto Rico that they have a boat shipment available which supposedly would take 1-2 weeks. From Australia I'd guess it could be as many as 3 weeks. I don't know.
2XDreme
10-09-2004, 06:36 AM
When she finally gets back home from frolicking around the countryside i'll let ya know
I haven't seen or heard from her for 2 weeks
Be nice to go on holiday ey :(

i think the shipment has issues cause fo the holiday
GTSpeedRacer

Boat to Japan takes 6-8 weeks, I'd imagine Australia would be a similar time frame.

10-12-2004, 06:21 AM
Well i am REALLY pissed off now :angryfire
She arrived back late last night so just asked her about the shipping etc and she just gave me a dumbfounded look and said 'ohh, forgot about that'
FUUCK - after some serious :pain10: i stormed out to her car and got the box out and now have in my possession
I know what i say can't make amends for what has happened but i am honestly sorry bout this and i will be PERSONALLY shipping these out by Saturday
When i post these myself i will post all relevant information supplied to me on here so all can see that they are on the way
SuperGLS
10-12-2004, 11:26 AM
Yeah, I'm mad too. I suppose it's better to know they didn't get lost or something like that.
04GTboySC
10-12-2004, 11:51 AM
grrr evil people, but ya like super said, at least we know they didn't get lost somewhere in route to the U.S.

SuperGLS
10-18-2004, 07:30 PM
I don't know. I still don't have any info from 2XDreme. It's almost been a week since he could have sent them out. All I know is that I paid on July 26, so, it hasn't been three months yet, that's when I'll get mad. I know this is the norm for things in the Hyundai world, but it shouldn't be.
04GTboySC

ok ppl's i'm back
been absent for couple weeks (as you are all probably aware)
For those who don't know i am an interstate truck driver and this is my first night back since i last posted here (looking forward to sleeping in my bed :bowdown: )
Box will be in mail on Saturday and will post details up
Will try and get in before then but with the hours i do at work it is pretty hard to get into post office
What i will do though is start taking them with me each day in truck and if i come across a post office before Saturday i will post them
Sorry bout delay on this but they ARE made and you all WILL get them :D
Anyway i'm goin to bed

2XDreme came over to the Newtiburon.com forums, and started the same group buy there, even showed his initial post in this thread as an example. His screenname is Whizzn, and he has disappeared from the forums over there too.
Here's the first post of the thread :
http://www.newtiburon.com/forums/showthread.php?t=19154&page=1&pp=25
I don't think anyone sent him money yet, but I have sent him MY lenses to make moulds from.
He seemed like an ok guy based on the PMs we had about sending them to him and the prices he would get. I have his name and address from that exchange, so I looked up a phone number every way possible.
Best luck I had was a Google result (of the exact address) from a page for something non car-related, ..and the name was different.
He may be new to the address since the person who's name I found moved out...who knows.
I left a message or 2 on the answering machine I got (with the default outgoing message, not a person's voice). I have heard nothing back. No email, no PM, no phone call ...nothing.
I registered on this site just to track him down, as he had posted much more recently than over at NT.com. I have IMd with SuperGLS and he has no leads either.
I read here that he claimed to be a truck driver who apparently goes away for chunks of time....
I am the type of person to give someone the benefit of the doubt, and trust before condemning.
Make no mistake, I'll be pissed if he's taken off with my lenses, and other people's money etc...
If what he claimes (about being a truck driver) is true, I do not feel he should be offering this, OR< at least not without warning us up front that it may take an inordinate amount of time to do these lenses. Definatly biting off more than he can chew by opening this up to involve so many people:

That would really suck if he screwed all of us. I am pissed that I was screwed out of $27 but at least it wasn't hundreds of dollars. Still if this is true I probably won't go through another group buy.

I can vouche for 2xDreme. I dont know him personally, but he helped me out quite a bit when I was starting up my site. We used to talk quite a bit on AIM and I feel I got to know him pretty well, but due to the time difference I havent had a chance to talk to him much. I understand that your all wondering where your money/lenses are, but at least he is posting the status when he gets the chance. My money is in there too, so I know your pain...rest assured though that I HIGHLY doubt he has run off with your money.

I am filling a dispute with Paypal.
That's almost 1/3 of the money I need to get my Yakima Racks, (Just found out I can get Employee Pricing b/c I work for a Distributor).
Paypal won't do anything:
"Merchandise Dispute - Thanks

Thank you for filing a buyer complaint.
Unfortunately, this complaint has been closed because it does not meet PayPal's complaint policy guidelines. However, your complaint has been noted in the record of the PayPal member whom you reported.

you should have his email address then, since that's how you send money through paypal.
have you emailed him?
**edit**
I got someone on the phone number i looked up for him. She has nothing to do with this guy, but was a great help and looked up whatever she could since she's local (around the corner from the shipping address he gave me)
Here's her response email to me:
Hi Brian
I have a lot of information for you.
1st - I looked up our directory and found no Brett Willis in the phone book so I rang our directory service and gave them the address and name and they came up with nothing for him as well.
So I had to go out near that street so I drove past and the people who live there happen to have their name on their letterbox so I wrote it down. It is an I & J Coleiro. We have gotten phone calls for him since we have lived here as apparently our phone number used to be his phone number. This mans name is Joe Coleiro. So I looked him up in the phone book and there was only a mobile phone number as a contact which is 0419 439 881. I don't know how the mobile system works between different countries, but I hope that this is a help.
I don't know if I can help any further but if you do need more assistance let me know.
Good luck
--So I tried to call this guy to see if he knows Brett, or received my lenses as his address is where I sent them.
Maybe he's the guy making the moulds.
I got an automated Telstra response saying the mobile I was calling was switched off, or out of range-please try back later.
For me, dialing international from my job, I found I need to leave the leading area code zero off, making the number in full:
011 61 419 439 881
I prob won't call again till monday from work, although I might give it a shot from home over the weekend.
there is an 8 hour difference over there, so 9AM here is 1AM.
Sux cause to catch someone around dinner time, prob have to call about 3 in the morning here.
All this effort.......

For those who don't know i am an interstate truck driver and this is my first night back since i last posted here (looking forward to sleeping in my bed :bowdown: )
Box will be in mail on Saturday and will post details up

What i will do though is start taking them with me each day in truck and if i come across a post office before Saturday i will post them
Sorry bout delay on this but they ARE made and you all WILL get them :D
Anyway i'm goin to bed

Where can you get this? Looks like plastic from a light fixture. If so I can probably get it at home Depo or something, right?
http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/6/web/582000-582999/582846_114_full.jpg
Oh, speaking of different colors, where did you get that bulb. I have bought color bulbs before but they fade out. Do you know if that bulb will fade out? I just had a difficult time finding purple film :(. But the bulbs I bought for my interior were purple and have faded out.
Maybe I can paint it? I would hate to do that but what other options do I have?

That really does look like its from a light fixture, but im not 100% sure..... He did not use a bulb it is a led which wont fade out like bulbs, go to superlumination.com to get it (168, 192)

I called that guy again, who's name is on the mailbox at the address where I sent my lenses.
Still got " the mobile you've called is switched off, or not in a mobile area...."
here is what i have found out about him...
he's a member on an mr2 forum... http://www.neuralmotion.com/mr2forum/index.cfm?action=displayMember&member=647
i think he owned a wrx...i would check his info but to sign up for this forum you pay money...i'm gonna email these people and ask if they know how to get a hold of him...
http://forum.wrx.com.au/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=8396
he's part of this forum and was last active yesturday...
http://www.antrx.com/smf/index.php?action=profile;u=107
he also has an ebay
http://feedback.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback&userid=*whizzn*&item=-1&frompage=222

http://www.antrx.com/smf/index.php?topic=5532.msg82337#msg82337
i'll report any further findings guys :)
EDIT: makes sence to ask the people who have sold him stuff on ebay for his mailing address...i'll work on that now...
EDIT AGAIN: He's selling his elantra.... http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=72451&item=4502293544&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW

Here's the thing. If you guys believe you have been ripped off, here is whom you should contact. As it is in the USA and all over the world, if you have your receipts and believe you have been wronged...contact the police. Include a link to this page. They will take care of this very quickly, I believe. I had a friend go to Australia, the cops there DO NOT mess around. I mean he left his plate # right on the "For sale" page on ebay. Plate # XQG363
Here is their contact page:
http://www.police.nsw.gov.au/contact_us
If a couple people here write to them, they will check it out....
I hope this helps, I HATE to see poeple get ripped off. (don't know if that's the case, but seems to be the general consensus here)
