Are the black mini's in stock or just black 78mm?

[DawnsDone]

I am at the bloog site, I was told mini's weren't in yet, but it is letting me put them in my cart. Are the black mini's in stock or is this just an error on the shopping cart?

Thanks!

Also, I noticed the basic starter kit: 1 battery (19.99) 5 pack cartos (10.99) charger (14.95)=45.93 so that would make the battery pouch 14.06? lol

I just went ahead and order a battery and carto's for $31 and a $5 charger somewhere else.

It seems the pricing is wrong on these? or am i missing something, which is usually the case with me

I am interested in ordering the mini pcc kit, 89 which is cheaper if you dont have a usb to wall adapter, but i dont need that part so i can also order that kit in separate pieces for 85.

Its great everything comes in a kit, especially for the newbie who doesnt know what to get but 14 more for the basic kit than buying pieces seems silly. I would think buying a kit should save you a couple bucks?

Anyway, just what I noticed thought maybe it would save someone new ordering a few bucks that you can buy more carto's with lol

It is funny though that bloog has an advertisement banner on the right side of the page that says "Get more product for less money: starter kit, deluxe kit, ultimate kit" lol

Also I will post a positive review for bloog cs after I get my kit if all continues to go like it has. I ordered a regular battery and some cartos the other day. After paying for my items I then wanted to add more and combine shipping. I must have changed my mind like 3 times! I'm a horrible customer I was emailing Chris from bloog and he didn't bat an eye at my many changes, he was friendly, helpful and patient the entire time! I've heard many great things about the maxxfusion and with cs being good, if it all adds up in the end I'm sure to being doing much more business with them =)

Yeah, kit pricing is off. And I thought the batteries were here, so I ordered some, what makes you think they aren't? I see black and white in minis, and they only became available after NYC announced the restock. But since she'll read this I'll also add that the "add to cart" button for the black batteries is floating on top of the "out of stock" which doesn't need to be there anymore, and the blue batteries have no sizes listed in the drop down.

Oddly, the only kit that really saves you money and makes sense is the Ultimate Starter Kit. I would not recommend the purchase of either of the two other kits.

Basic Starter Kit:
Battery - 19.99
USB/Wall Charger - 14.99
5 Pack of Carts - 10.99
Total: 45.97
COST: $59.99

You would pay a premium of $14.02 to get the kit boxes. That makes no sense to me at all. The kit should be priced at $42.99.

Deluxe Starter Kit:
2 Batteries - 39.98
USB/Wall Charger - 14.99
5 Pack of Carts - 10.99
Total: 65.96
COST: $79.99

Once again you pay a premium, $14.03, to buy this kit. This one should cost $59.99 but no more than $62.99.

Ultimate Starter Kit
2 Batteries - 39.98
USB/Wall Charger - 14.99
5 Pack of Carts - 10.99
USB Pass-Thru - 12.99 (Not sold separately on site - price is based on avg. cost of Pass-Thrus)
Car Charger 14.99
Carrying Case - 9.99
PCC - 24.99
Total - 128.92
COST: $99.99

Here you save $28.93 by buying the kit. It is the only one priced properly to encourage a total buy-in to Bloog MaxxFusion. I think it is part of why this kit sells like hot cakes.

Maybe this is their marketing strategy but I think for some who do the math they may be put off by what, to them, seems likes an underhanded attempt to over charge for goods. Obviously, I don't feel that way, but I really think these price points need to be evaluated.

I totally agree! I'm a business management graduate and own my own business and from my standpoint this is simply bad business.

Oh and I forgot to add in my post that it is not recommended that you use a charger other than the one offered by Bloog for the MaxxFusion. I know there have been some reported issues if you use a different charger while others have encountered no difficulty.
