Just picked up the masks. Typing this here in my car in the parking lot lol. Went smooth and efficiently and everyone kept their distance. Even the parked cars as well.

Picked up my 2 boxes earlier. Thanks OP!

LuHua 04-11-2020 10:10 AM

Most stock cars in a RS meetup ever? Haha.

Pretty much everyone showed up in masks (forgot to grab one on the way out myself, sorry guys...) and kept distance, it went as smooth as you could hope.

Thanks OP!

BLUETIGER 04-11-2020 10:10 AM

Picked up today. Friendly, smooth, and professional transaction.
Instructions were well communicated via SMS before pick-up. Thanks!!

everything went super smooth and it was super organized.

this is better organized than most other events i've been to in the past.

for what its worth, everyone should give OP a like in his 1st post.

Best organization ever. Took less than 30 seconds.

Was going to drop by Fujiya but the line was way too long.

Thanks for organizing this OP!

Amuse 04-11-2020 11:03 AM

Thanks Melon Boy for setting this up.
The RS meet social distancing style was great. We didn’t even talk to each other, and most of the cars were stock looking with some that were lowered with wheels.

Wanted some curry, saw that line going allllllll the way down the side street and noped out of there

1 of the 4 boxes I picked up has been a dud.

The nose bridge is on the bottom side of the mask instead of the top. How I am differentiating top vs bottom is by the creases that fold out which should be downward facing away from the nose bridge. However, on one of the boxes, the creases fold up towards the nose bridge.

On all 4 boxes, the nose bridge material is a bit too flimsy and could use some improvement. I have 4 different types of surgical masks on hand and in comparison, the nose bridge is the thinnest on these masks.

This is all no fault of the wholesaler but YMMV. The QC on Chinese stuff has always been hit or miss and these masks are no exception.

Would I buy these same masks again?
Probably not.

Would I deal with this wholesaler again (assuming they had a different product)?
Yes.

Well you guys were all there to pick up your 2 boxes, not box 2's.

MelonBoy 04-11-2020 06:35 PM

Hey everyone, bad news.. The supplier has ran out of stock. Unfortunately he wasn't expecting such a big turn out. I will have to cancel everyone else order who hasn't paid yet. Please contact me if you have paid and did not pick up your order. I will try make sure you get your order.

Restock is unknown at this point. Pricing may be increasing & time line is could be up to 4 weeks as of now. The other groupbuy might be a good alternative

lowda9 04-11-2020 06:36 PM

Too bad I just saw this now. Any chance there's a few boxes left?
