Thx Mark! I received your PM. Since there was no price in the PM, I assume I am suppose to contact Jason to get the price?

Yes please do. It's best to have one person communicate all of the details.

I am also wanting to know the price, but I don't want to swamp Jason with PMs.

I'm assuming that if we are on the list already that he will let us know soon?

To save a lot of grief on your part, perhaps you can include price for the 10 and 20, estimated delivery date for each, and cost for any special tuning you do. I know Id be interested in all of this and any other info you have. Thanks so much.

Good idea; I'm also interested in both.

Just curious Mark, from what you know is the AVS pre-order list for JVC new models complete (over) now ?

Definitely not. I suspect the pre-order list will continue for quite awhile and I encourage you to talk to Jason.

Fwiw, this whole thing got started a few months ago when I was considering buying an RS2 and asked Jason if we could get a good price if we did a group purchase. He told me to collect some names which I started to do and then I put the brakes on the whole thing when I heard rumors about something new from JVC. Once the RS20 was announced some of the people from that original group asked me if I would organize a group purchase for the RS20 instead. Which is what has just happened. Because it's a new model the response has been huge and it makes sense to fold the group that I organized into Jason's.

Jason, I hope you get a free RS20 out of the deal, what with bringing all this volume to JVC...

Jason,

Just a clarification: is it a correct assumption that you will automatically PM the price info to the folks on Mark's list? There is no need for us to PM you first, correct? I also second the above suggestion that sending the pricing on both the RS10 and RS20 along with anticipated delivery dates, if available, would cut down on a lot of back and forth. Additionally, you might also include pricing for the optional QC and QC+tuning you have done in the past.

Thanks!

Hi there,

Best to single click Jason's name(post #9) and you will see the option for private message.

Hi there,

Single click and Mark's name(a few posts up) or Jason's name(post #9) and you will see the option for private message.

It's best to PM or call Jason from here on out. My role was to see if there was "critical mass" to get a good group buy but we're at supernova stage now :)

Out of morbid curiosity, how many people do you think jumped on the powerbuy thus far?

I'm not sure, but even if I did I would think that this info would be confidential to AVS.

Jason - Did you starting making the contacts to those on the list you combined with Mark's? I didn't hear anything today.

I already thanked him via PM, but I'll definitely thank Mark for helping organize this once again in public now that I'm officially in for an RS20. :cool: :D

It was official yesterday...I'm in for my first projector and it will be the RS20. Thanks Mark and Jason for helping me buy what I believe is a great product.

Thanks again guys. I wonder if having an AVS thread titled with my name qualifies for my 15 minutes of fame? :)

Visoneer, you don't know how fortunate you are in getting an RS20 for your first projector. You missed all of the previous generations of $8000 projectors with 800:1 contrast ratio.

yeah and I been chasing this darn thing for 3 years. My luck a month after I get one there will be a rs20x with 80,000 :1 and 1500 lumens and 10 db with a msrp of 4500.00.

Yes.....it feels good to come under the radar of all the previous generations. However, I've had my share of other electronic first out of the box with similar expensively unfavorable results. We all get good karma every now and then. Anyway, it was your passion and Jason's that sold me on the RS20 where I was about to get the Pana 3000 or the new Epson. I'm excited and can't wait to get it.
