    More specifically, guys from around London and area.
    I've been in contact with a supplier of Kroil out West as no one apparently sells it this side of Manitoba!
    So, I asked him to send me a price for a couple of cans for me originally, but then thought "I wonder how much a case of this stuff would cost, shipped"
    So, when I get an email back, I'll post a price per can, not looking to make any money off you guys, just whatever it costs me, is what it will cost you.
    So, anybody interested???
    Like I said, as soon as I know, you'll know.


    Cheers, Graham

    Well I'm not in London, down Simcoe way, but I'm interested. Perhaps some of the members down this way might be interested? If so I'm willing to come to London and pick it up.

    Re: Hey Ontarians

    Ok, sounds good so far. Simcoe, well Friday the 13th is coming up, that's if I get enough responses and can order in time. Toronto, my daughter and her fiance' live in Mississauga and come home every couple of weekends so that could solve the distance issue for you.
    I'll keep every one updated, so stay tuned and I hope I can get the deal worked out.

    Re: Hey Ontarians

    OK, latest update. Apparently the guy I talked to (Doug) has had issues with his email at work.
    So, I was transferred to Murray. He told me that the cans come in cases of 9 and that he would make sure that somone will contact me on Monday.
    The size I asked for is the 16.5 oz can and they would be coming by bus, because it's cheaper. Once I get definite pricing for these I'll need an exact count of how many cans each of you want. So, for the guys that have replied so far, can you post again with an exact number?
    Like I said I'll get a price and post it before ordering because I don't want to end up with say 3 cases of this stuff sitting in my garage.
    Also, so that you know that I'm being a straight shooter I'll scan the price quote and post it so you can see that you are only paying what I'm paying.
    I'm not in this to make money off anyone, I just get some of this "Magic Elixor" into the hands of a few guys West of Manitoba and North of our American buddies.
    Must be nice to just walk into a store and pick it up off the shelf! :cry:
    Please stay tuned.

    I'm here in London, and I'm in.
    Oh - and there's a Carb Clinic coming up here in early June, so I'm sure they'd be a big hit there too...

    Re: Hey Ontarians *SOLD OUT*

    *1 LEFT*
    Ok guys, here's the info I have on getting a case of 12 cans shipped:
    Normally a 16.5 oz can goes for $18.00. If I order a case of 12 then I get a bulk purchase discount which brings the price down to $15.50 a can. So, with tax and delivery ($9.30 + $21.50) it comes to $18.06 per can to my door.
    For those that can pick up, that will be your price, if I then have to mail them onward, that will be extra. But I may have that covered in my earlier post.
    Like I said, I'm not in this to make any money off this deal, I just want to get this stuff into our hands.

    Heres a list that I will update as orders come in, as soon as I get 12 I'll place the order.

    GFB85 = 3
    lostboy = 1
    Mr. Etobicoke = 1 Arrangements made, thanks.
    Maxim-X = 2 Tried it and this stuff is great!
    Groundhugger = 2 Arrangements made, thanks.
    altus = 1
    Planehue = 1 Picked up, thanks.
    So 11 cans ordered so far, 1 to go before I place the order. May order anyway.
    Now, regarding payment, I've found that etransfer work great, if you bank online then you can do this.
    All that's needed is to send a password to me at my email:
    Maximx@rogers.com (no spaces)
    and that's it. A secure transaction that PayPal gets no part of.
    That's it for now, if I get more responses then I'll add them to the list above.
    Does this work for you guys?

    Re: Hey Ontarians

    Hey guys
    Just phoned the order in a couple of minutes ago. According to Doug I should have them in my hot little hands as early as Friday and Mon-Tues at the latest.
    When they arrive I'll post again.
    It's a case of twelve and so far 9 are spoken for, so there will be three up for grabs on a first come, first served basis.


    Cheers, Graham

    Re: Hey Ontarians

    Well I'm in for one of those last 3 cans. Let me check with a couple of the other XJ folk in the area who aren't on this board and see if they're interested too.

    Re: Hey Ontarians

    Ok altus, I've updated the count a couple of posts up, so that leaves 2 cans on a first come, first sold basis.
    If by chance I get an overwhelimg amount of interest I can always place a second order.

    Re: Hey Ontarians

    Hey Planehue
    You are lucky number 11, so for the rest of the guys out there, there is one can of the "Magic Elixor" left.
    This has worked out better than I thought it would, originally I was just going to get a couple of cans shipped out for myself.

    Re: Hey Ontarians *SOLD OUT*

    Do you have a preferred method for payment?
    I never mind taking a trip down to London if you don't mind cash in hand.

    Also a carb clinic eh? Any specific dates in June stand out?

    According to DHL I should have this stuff in my hot little hands by the end of business Monday.
    @ GFB85 cash is always welcome!
    For the guys that bought from me, if you want to PM me your phone numbers we can make pick up and payment arrangements.

    Hey guys, I changed the original post and adjusted the count accordingly.
    I now have one extra can available, so like before, first come, first sold.
    Should be available Monday if DHL shows up as promised.

    THE KROIL IS HERE, THE KROIL IS HERE!!!!!
    Yeh, I know it's a bit over the top. 8O
    But this stuff is amazing! Last night I tried to loosen the nuts on the header flanges as well as the cap screws that hold on the fake air fins on my Max. I used enough force that if I went any harder I felt something might snap. Well the Kroil showed up this afternoon and first thing I did was to go and give each nut and screw a little taste. Went down stairs and watched TV for about an hour, came back up and SHWING!!!!!!
    The bolts and screws came off with less than a quarter of the force I had used last night.
    So, for the guys that ordered the stuff through me, give me a call and we'll arrange to get this stuff into your hands!
