Windshields for $125 - Need at least 5 to go to $120
« on: January 14, 2013, 08:50:41 PM »
He has 10.  He said he would do $120 if at least 5 are bought and delivered to the location near me in Alexandria, Va., where I will pick mine up.  Drop shipping is free to many locations across the US.

I suggest we go after this together for all 10 and then get them delivered where we want.  I've started a list below.  PM me and I will add you to the list according to your time stamp.  Be sure to give your desired location. 

If we take all of them we probably have a better chance of him shipping them to multiple locations for the cheaper price.

I don't know if he is shipping them in a container like another group had done but I will ask him to confirm we won't be charged if they are not intact upon arrival.  This will be a paypal event, probably as individuals.

Who's "him" and what are these windshields - OEM?  Or aftermarket?

E-bay seller named ExtremeChevy or something like that.  I think he is selling them for like $139 if you want to check it out but will go lower for a group buy offline.  I am going to tell him to set 2 aside for me for $125 each and if we get at least 5 I will approach him for the lower price for the group. 

Oh yeah.  E-bay ad indicates they are OEM.

Update:  He just wrote back.  Response below.  Anybody able to confirm PGW are good to go? 

Dear ward3138,

Hello, These windshields are PGW brand windshields which are OEM for GM. They don't have the GM logo in glass. Now you would have to pick them up at my vender PGW AUTO GLASS. They don't deliver. My vender get them in creates so you will have to plan of bring something to help transport them. You will need to inspect the glass before accepting them. They will only cover a detect in the glass, will not cover against breakage in you transporting home.

I have a spare OEM windshield in my basement if you want me to check.  If it is coming from a PGW dealer, then it is not NOS...although it may be the same as OEM.

Please do Josh.  For further clarification Brazen17 and others, the listing shows PGW shops across the US at many locations so a buyer would not have too far to go.

Break Break

Hoping not to confuse the issue here but I found out that "VetteWrecks" here in DC is related to that outfit out near St Louis (factory OEM I believe they are called on e-bay), so if you don't like the option above and are in the  DC area, they will transport anything (including a few windshields they have left from the factory) you buy and you can pick up the merchandise over near Andrews AFB at their warehouse.  The owner said they have a lot of stuff (NFI) from the Wilmington factory that they haven't yet documented.  I am going to try to drop by today as I will be on that side of town and check it out.  I'll report if it is a stock pile or not soon.

I'm chewing the popcorn waiting on this one.  I only live ~40 miles from AFB... could be good!  Thanks

I heard back from the Gentleman about the windshields.  He said he thinks two are already at the PGW facility in Alexandria, but if we want more there, or anywhere in the US where there is a local storage center, the delivery to that facility would be about 10-14 days.  I have not had any takers so far so let me provide contact info so that others that might want to do a buy with delivery to theie area can go direct.  contact e-mail is chevye_lys4159oftm@members.ebay.com.  I think I will limit my potential coordination to just those in the DC area that contact me if they want to.  Just to make sure this is legit I plan to get a name and number at the place of pick-up and call to confirm this is on the up and up.  Cheers.

Regarding the VetteWrecks place, his warehouse is across from the old Marlboro Heights Saturn so I was hopeful but it appears all he has are 8 tulip panels for Skys; however, for us in DC he did say he can get stock from Factory OEM in St Louis  shipped to DC at no additional cost, so, not great but not bad for us in DC.
