Right most people now seem to be up and running following the group buy, one more package to send out and four camers to collect from Novus when the next delivery arrives, once they are all sent out the forum donation will be made to Martin.MY17 D5 1st Edition Namib Orange

Although I wasn't part of the group buy, this is a great result for both the buyers and the forum.
I think Russell has done a stirling job with what has been a complicated group buy and this money will help the forum a lot.
