Q: What's a "Group Buy?"

A Group Buy is a time-limited offer where, by purchasing as a group, members can earn exceptionally deep discounts on selected educational products for their homeschools.

For example: In a recent Group Buy for art curriculum, members started out with a 30% discount. When we collected 16 orders, everyone got a 40% discount. We ended up with over 80 orders, and as a result everyone received a 50% discount! So, it pays to tell your friends!

Q: How do I participate in Group Buys?

When we have a Group Buy ready for you, we will publish it on this page and send an email notification to members that have subscribed to "Special Offers" at their My Profile page.

We will give you a way to place your order on a special, secure order form. The Co-op does NOT take your money. We simply act as your purchasing agent. But you must get your order in by the cut-off date.

When order volumes reach certain published quantities, all participants get the associated volume discount, whether they buy one item or many, and whether they were the first person to order or the last. We notify all participants when prices drop.

When the cut-off date and time arrives, we stop taking more orders, give the merchant your order information, and they take it from there. The transaction is between you and the Group Buy merchant.

Q: Is a Group Buy like an eBay auction?

No! It's the opposite of an eBay auction!! On eBay, you don't want other buyers around, because they will drive your price UP! But with a Group Buy, you want other buyers to participate because they can drive your price DOWN! So, it pays to tell your homeschool friends and homeschool groups if you want to save money!

Q: Will you notify me when you have a Group Buy?

Only if you sign up for "Special Offers" at the My Profile page. Select "Please email me all Co-op special offers" if you want to hear about every Group Buy. There aren't that many, so you aren't going to be deluged with emails.

Also, be sure you add "offers @ homeschoolbuyersco-op.org" (without spaces) to your email address book. Otherwise, your well-meaning spam filter will ensure that you don't find out about these great deals.
