Hi, I am trying to put together a group buy for a MARS ME0709 DC motor. A group buy is where a bunch of people pitch in to buy an item at a quantity discount. I don’t think we need to be in the same geogrophical location as the items will be shipped to you.

I will be contacting half a dozen suppliers or so trying to find us the best deal. These motors sell for approximately $500 bucks plus shipping. I hope to make the purchase sometime in June. Please contact me and let me know if you are interested.

EV Drives is able to go $440 each if we buy 5 motors from them. They are in Oregon so there’s no sales tax. Your shipping would be additional. Please let me know if you are interested.

The motors are in a warehouse in WA 98368 and they ship them by UPS Ground. The weight is 38 lbs. To ship mine to Sacramento, CA is $25 bucks.

Please contact me if you are interested, this is looking like a good deal. I am also hearing confirmation that this indeed is a good motor from those who have installed it.
