interested in twopartsolution carbon and GFO???

i was curious if anyone was interested in buying granular activated carbon, GAC and granular ferric oxide, GFO. price is great if we can get enough people together for a group buy.
40lbs GAC $120 = 3/lb
20lbs GFO $250 = 12.5/lb
plus $30s/h = 3.5/lb GAC and 13/lb GFO

i think thats a great price! if anyone knows of a better price please let me know. i have a small scale that is accurate to small amounts. i can put each lb in individual ziplock bags. id like to limit this group order to GFO and GAC as to not complicate things since im paying out of my pocket.

if anyone is interested please let me know. only serious individuals please because i wont be collecting payment in advance. im going to pay out of my own pocket first and you can pay me when we meet up.
i live near midway airport but im in skokie/niles area almost every Saturday. we can meet at coral reef or living sea aquarium, i shop there often, unfortunately. if enough people pick up at a petshop further up north at the same time im willing to met you guys also, if i don't get lazy
thanks

There is a guy that lives up by me here that goes up there every couple of weeks for school. Hopefully he will chime in.

this is not going as good as i thought it would lol

if i cant get enough people together by friday, im going to go ahead and order what i want. the people that have contacted me ill give them a quote with the adjusted price if we have to buy less and they can decide if they want to still participate.
