Ok, here is where we stand....

 

Right now, these are the guy that are interested or willing to participate.

 

goodhelmet

loss

mort

tim

EJ

 

Mort said he has a couple of mates who may or may not be interested.

 

 

How does this sound for a plan...

 

We can send the money to me (or anyone else for that matter) and purchase the Lynch discs. From there, I will burn two sets for Mort and Loss. I will send them their sets and then Loss would make 2 sets (EJ and Tim) and Mort would make sets for his mates. If each guy pitched in $30 for discs a month, That would be $210 worth per month which is a little over 30 discs. Any added cost would be shipping and blanks cost. If we want to set a flat rate of $30 then we would receive less discs but keep the cost lowered.

Sounds good, although depending on everyone's ability to do so, I'd be willing to go higher on the amount.

I would too but that is $30 BEFORE materials so that is why I started low.

I'd like to get in on this.

You're in.

Ok, does anyone have any specific requests for the Lynch lucha #1? Matches, cards, anything? If not, you are just going to have to trust my judgment since I am focusing on rare Eddy matches and early El Dandy.

That's fine with me. We'll eventually get it all. I'd also like to maybe get lots of Santo and that Atlantis/Blue Panther match from 8/91.

Noted. Specific match requests are great because it gives me something to keep an eye out for because I have no idea who is good and who sucks outside the top names that are either raked through the coals or pimped to death.

what he said

Did you mean to post this in the duplicator thread KZ?

OK, I have figured out plan to do this....

 

1. Everyone in the bulk sends an initial payment of $30. Once everyone is in, I place the order to Lynch.

 

2.If you are a burner, then whoever you receive the discs from, you will pay for shipping and blanks cost in a 2nd payment. If you can't burn, then you will pay for your blanks and shipping to whoever is sending you the discs. This way, everyone who takes the time out to burn basically gets free shipping and no disc cost for thier efforts. So, while you may have to pay upfront to cover costs, you will regain your cost from the 2nd branch. If you are sending in a flat rate Priority box then the cost should be the same for everyone.

 

3. Right now, we have the following....

 

Loss, goodhelmet, Tim ,EJ, Mort, Brian and 3 guys from RIM.

 

That is 9 guys which would be $270. after Paypal is taken out, we are looking at about $240 to spend on discs a month. If we bought individual 2 hour shows then that would add up to 40 discs per person. Since he has those 9 dollar prices for double disc sets, it will more than likely be closer to 50.

 

As far as I know, EJ and Tim do not have the ability to convert. If the above setup is a concern, let me know by all means.

 

I figure Mort can handle the guys from RIM so he can deal with them as he sees fit.

 

Now, for Loss, Brian and Mort, since you guys have the capability to burn, you can figure out how the branches go from me. I will burn 2 sets to send to 2 burners. Which 2 is up to you guys. then from there, those burners can send to 2 other guys and so forth until the chain is done.

 

In conclusion, the burners who actually have to put time into this will get the discs basically for the $30 you pitch in. The non-burners will probably have to pay about $25 more per order. Maybe a little less, maybe a little more. However, I think that is fair since burning discs takes time and effort and the burners should be rewarded for that time.

 

Thank about that .... people will save anywhere from 90% to 75% on each order.

 

No matter which end you are at, you are getting a good deal. Now, if anyone has any questions or problems, then voice them here.

So far I got about 35 discs listed. If you want to ad dsomethin or know of a match, speak up.

"Mexico #11 (6 hours) (3 discs)

(Santo-Fuerza-All Star Round Robin; Dandy vs. Charles)"

 

The first part of this tape is something we already have. FM's Best of Lucha 1989 contains the round robin section. I have Dandy/Charles on VHS if you want to convert.

The "Best of 1990" show is ONLY clips. I thought it wasn't until I got Atlantis/Dandy from the show and it only showed 4 minutes (though a nice 4 minutes).

Yeah, just read where it said clips only. That sucks. How can I get these matches in full?

You have 7/28 on Brazos Volume 2 DVD you converted for me.

Ok, cool. However, I remember putting down all 6 hours because it looked like a promising tape.

 

For the shows you have on VHS, we could probably stand to upgrade it a generation since there is quite a bit of a drop from going from a 6 hour tape to a 6 hour tape as Lynch used to do. Going from master tape to DVD is the way to go.

Sounds good, just wanted to keep you aprised.

 

Most of the year end matches aired in full throughout the year. Atlantis/Dandy is NOT one of those. Lynch/Alfredo are missing a TV episode from June that could have aired it.

Tim, do you have more matches and/or Tape numbers you want to add to the list? Same goes for anyone else in this deal. Do NOT be shy.

 

Also, I am holding off on a bunch of the AAA from 1993-95 because I have the entire Barnett set. Now, I just need to find someone who has the dates and cities for the Barnett set so I can eliminate matches we already have.

I only have Part I of the list. I may place a small Lynch order tonight and have him send me the rest of the list.

Barnett said at one time that he provided that information to anyone who purchased the VHS tapes from him directly, but that was a long time ago. Barnett can probably tell you regardless.

Oh, and only one issue. If this is stuff that's already in possession or being sent to Will, I think everyone participating in the bulk buy should get the footage as well, even if we're not buying it directly from Lynch.

So, you are saying I should make copies of the Barnett stuff and give you copies?

I'm saying if Tim sends you stuff to convert to DVD, I don't want to be left out. That's all.

Not everyone in the trade should get footage already owned. If Tim wants to send it to me then that is his perogative. In fact, it would be cheaper for people to trade for it. If you want to make a trade with Tim for the footage then make a trade. You shouldn't expect it to be freebie when it has nothing to do with the bulk. Anything I buy from Lynch would be footage that we do NOT have and rest assured, anything bought from Lynch in the bulk would be distributed to all parties involved. Any footage that is already accumulated is left up to the person who owns it to decide what they want to do with it.

Also, just to make clear, everything that Tim mentioned is still being ordered on DVD rather than tape. I probably won't be converting anything there. The only exception is the year-end show which I will take off and put something else in its place.

So the original order remains as is? That's what I was checking. I just wanted to make sure we wouldn't have a lot of people popping up saying they had this or that, while the rest of us who want the lucha are left out or have to make separate trades for it. If we're still picking up all of that stuff on DVD, even if someone in the circle has it, I'm happy. It shouldn't matter if one person has it, if there are five others who don't. That's what I'm saying.
