If you have an older Indie Gala Bundle for sale, I've created a section under each bundle to list how many you have and how much you are asking. Please feel free to update this post with that info, but do it within the spoiler tag and keep your offerings current. I have an example listed under Mobile Bundle 2. If you want to purchase a bundle from someone, just PM that user and work out the details.

Happy Hour buys!
I bought in right now at $1 so I will be hosting a 4 pack when happy hour goes live.
Happy Hour:
1. Me
2. mombbsmj
3.
4.
PM if you are interested. I would give a price quote, but these things have a habit of jumping in price during happy hour. should be around 2 bucks though.

Huh, didn't see this thread until you mentioned it and I went to look for it. I'm planning to buy at least 20 copies if you'd like to join mine, should be cheaper since they give price breaks the more gifts you buy. As of this posting it's ~1.13 per copy but it will most definitely go up.

Genocidal, did you purchase the 20 bundles? If so, can I get in on your group buy when Happy Hour rolls around?
Genocidal
07-27-2012, 12:57 PM
Well, I can't purchase it until the happy hour comes online. I'm not going to pre-reserve slots because I have limited availability tomorrow if that's when it drops, and have had a lot of bad luck with people backing out of slots they've promised to buy on other things in the past. I can guarantee that I will be buying at least one group of 20 when they put happy hour online though.

Wait so they give even more of a discount for the more you buy hence it would make more sense to just have one or two people coordinate these in bulk vs a bunch of different people?
God damn it, I feel like I need a doctoral degree just to figure out how the hell these happy hours worked. It seriously is one of the most convoluted systems with not well documented rules that I have come across in a long time.

Yes. Genocidal pointed that out. So my plan right now is that Genocidal host the first 20 Pack and once he's filled up I will host a 20 pack myself. Any leftovers for me I will just give out to friends and probably set a side 5 for the steam group. So that's the plan!

The "gift packs" are disabled during Happy Hour. You can't stack the two discounts. At least, that's how it's worked in the past.
Somebody please put me in their happy hour. Genocidal, if you have a slot, let me know. If not, CheapLikeAFox, I'll take a spot in yours. :)

Do the group buys get the beat the average games, too? If so I'd be down for a spot but since I don't use Pay Pal I'd have to give Amazon Credit or a $2.50ish game on Steam (possibly Orcs Must Die 1 since it's the weekend deal but your choice). PM me if interested.

Do the group buys get the beat the average games, too? If so I'd be down for a spot but since I don't use Pay Pal I'd have to give Amazon Credit or a $2.50ish game on Steam (possibly Orcs Must Die 1 since it's the weekend deal but your choice). PM me if interested.
Yes they do. The free gift copies basically mirror the original copy you are buying at the time of the happy hour so if you beat the average then all the gift copies will get those bonuses and if you don't then they won't.
Generally speaking people who do the group buys beat the average because when you divide up the per copy happy hour price the per bundle price is pretty low even with the average bonuses.

Thanks to Blade, I've wikified the thread. I'm thinking it might be a good idea for people hosting group buys for the current bundle to update the OP with how many spots they have open so all the info is in one spot and easy to find. It might even be worth having people post in the spoilerized older bundles if they have leftovers available. What does everyone think?

Well, I can't purchase it until the happy hour comes online. I'm not going to pre-reserve slots because I have limited availability tomorrow if that's when it drops, and have had a lot of bad luck with people backing out of slots they've promised to buy on other things in the past. I can guarantee that I will be buying at least one group of 20 when they put happy hour online though.
Bolded for emphasis. Please don't PM me asking for slots right now! If the 20 gift group buy was not a glitch, rest assured that there will be plenty of bundles for everyone who is interested. Even if it was a glitch I'm definitely in for at least one four pack group and can buy extras if people want me to.

Hopefully I'm almost done tweaking the OP after importing a lot of data from the main thread. Would it be good to add a spot listing who's hosting the current bundle?
I also had a crazy idea I wanted to get everyone's input on. It might be nice to have this thread be a resource for people trying to pick up older bundles. Just as an idea, I added a section to the spoilerized part of Indie Mobile 2 listing that I still have bundles available, how much and what payment method I'm looking for. If you all think it's a good idea, I'll add the section to all of the older bundles. If it's a crap idea, it's no problem to delete the couple lines.

OK. So I have 2 slots open in a gift pack now. Taking more so just PM if you are interested. Once I fill my max I will let you guys know, but for the moment I got slots open.
If I am late getting to your PMs its because I'm on vacation so only checking CAG morning and night. If you end up in another group buy, no hard feelings at all. I'm buying the cheapest possible group buys, so if the multiple gift discount stacks that's what I'll be doing.

I am planning to host one which is less "traditional". I am planning to host one which is close to 4-dollar-ish for each bundle (probably $3.50) . My feeling is that this bundle has so many surprising good games (Armored Princess, Star Wolves, Death to Spies, to name a few; not to mention Rig N' Roll alone worth 2 dollars :) ). The developers and the charity really deserve our money.
So, if you want to donate more (but less than the usual $6.80 single bundle), you can join my group buy. PM in advance so I can start organizing.
Edit: I can only take Paypal.

Bought a second 20 pack. PM me if interested at $1.25 Paypal gift or Amazon GC per bundle. Will add my info to the OP.
So where is the option to buy a 20 pack, how is it your doing that? I paid $7 in the first few days thinking I would host, but damn, if your doing 20 packs there's no need. I'm just not seeing anything about 20's on the site. (This was going to be my first time hosting). And what is it that gives you $0.50 off the 4-pack price? :confused:
Genocidal
08-03-2012, 07:53 PM
During happy hour you get 4x gifts if you buy in the first week. If you purchase over X amount (a little under $25 right now, iirc) then you get 5 gifts, which is quadrupled into 20.
I've only got 4 or 5 copies left plus whatever people decide to back out on, so there is probably still room for more people to host. After sending out ~30 of the codes already, checking emails, making sure no one gets a duplicate code, and making sure my inbox doesn't get full, I'm not sure I want to do another one this weekend.

20 packs must be a lot of work. Big thanks to Genocidal and CheapLikeAFox for hosting them.
Don't forget: round up a few cents when you pay them for your bundle. They're not asking us to, but they're they're hosting out of generosity, and it won't hurt the rest of us to offer a little tip.

So is that the gift pack prices listed:
Give 2 gifts for more than: $12.08
Give 3 gifts for more than: $17.25
Give 4 gifts for more than: $22.43
Give 5 gifts for more than: $25.88
Am I understanding correctly that if I spend more than $25.88, then I would receive 5 for every 1, but I still can't get the math to work out. someone pretend I'm completely stupid. I've read the site, googled, and read the OP, and I'm still not getting it.
Genocidal
08-03-2012, 08:15 PM
Wow, the average shot up a lot there. If you bought in the first week and mark your purchase as a gift, you will receive 20 gifts for buying in at $25.88 or more.

O.K. So the minimum by-in at this point would be $1.40/bundle, right? I have to buy 4 bundles to get above $25.88, which would be $28. But I would get 5 bundles per every one (because I beat the average in the first week, and am now beating the $25.88 minimum) that I bought making it 20 bundle keys total. $28/20= $1.40. Did I do that right?
Genocidal
08-03-2012, 09:07 PM
No, you make one purchase of $25.88 or more to get 5 gifts, and those 5 gifts are quadrupled if you were an early buyer. So, you could buy in at $26 and get copies for $1.30.

It depends since Indie Gala sometimes raised the beat the average price during happy hour. Last time it was from $1.25 to $2 per bundle depending on who you bought from.
Right now if they did not raise the average, it would be around $1.10 a bundle for the cheapest option.
And for those waiting to jump in a bundle, I'm pretty sure Genacidal and Walkonshadows will be hosting once they find out it's live. If for whatever reason they don't, I'll be happy to host more bundles at that time but for right now my slots are full.

And for those waiting to jump in a bundle, I'm pretty sure Genacidal and Walkonshadows will be hosting once they find out it's live. If for whatever reason they don't, I'll be happy to host more bundles at that time but for right now my slots are full.
Alright, thanks for the info. :)
May be down for three slots if the average stays low.

Okay, here are the steps (and I hope they are clear enough):
1. During the first week of the Indie Gala bundle (and since I don't really know how they define week, I would do this step ASAP) go the the Indie Gala page and purchase a bundle by paying the minimum ($1). Remember which email you use to purchase this basic bundle.
2. Wait for a 4 x 1 happy hour. During this happy hour, buyers who purchased the bundle during the first week will get any gift bundles they purchase multiplied by 4.
3. During the happy hour purchase 5 gift bundles. To do this, use the SAME EMAIL you used to purchase the basic bundle. Check the "Is this a gift?" option on the page and then enter the amount equivalent to 5 "Gift Packs." To find this amount scroll down to almost the bottom of the page where it says:
Give a Gala to your friends! And enjoy our Gift PACKS!
Click the "Is it a gift?" checkbox
It will list how much you need to pay to get 5 gift packs. This is important since there is a discount on gift packs.
4. After you make your purchase they will email you your URL link and you should then have 20 gift bundle URLs there (along with the games from your original basic bundle).
5. To calculate cost add the original $1 you spent plus the amount of the 5 gift packs and divide by 20.
6. Once you receive payment either email or PM each person their URL link and keep track of this somewhere. (I make a spreadsheet showing X member got gift bundle #4, etc.)
On a side note, the BTA prices have skyrocketed between yesterday and today :(

No apology needed. I just ask people to PM so I can send them confirmation. Otherwise they might post here, assume I reserved a slot for them and then be disappointed.
I'm down to 9 slots personally and won't be hosting any other packs after I fill those up.
Edit:
Also, to clarify for those not familiar with how IG group buys work, I can not predict what the price will be. Best guess is it will be anywhere from $1.25 to $2, but likely somewhere in between. If Happy Hour were to happen right now we could get them for less than $1, but IG usually raises the average when happy hour happens so the price goes up. I evenly divide the cost amongst every bundle and we all pay the same amount per bundle.

General advice for people buying things: Don't be passive, actively PM the person you want to do business with instead of leaving a lazy "PM me" post in a thread. I see a ton of people who post asking to be included when someone is doing a group buy and then complaining later when they get left out because they didn't take the effort to make their interest known.

Ill host a group buy if someone will show me how to during the first happy hour. I don't mind putting up money and trying to trade the extras, I just wanna get the best discount if anyone could explain to me how. I'm pretty sure it says you get like 4x off the price if you have already purchased or something? Not quite sure of happy hour rules.

The first thing you need to do is buy a current bundle for $1 asap. You'll just get the 4 base games. After that, I'm in a bit of the same boat as you. Once Happy Hour hits, you should be able to buy gift bundles at the BTA price. The more you buy, the better the discount. As I understand it, the max you can buy at a time is 5. Since you bought during the first week initially, each gift bundle gets quadrupled, turning it into 20 bundles.
Then, take the price of those gift bundles, add in the initial dollar, divide by 20 and you'll have your price per bundle. Since this is a group buy and not a sale/trade thread, you should ask to be paid via Paypal gift instead of just Paypal as you'd have to pay fees on regular Paypal and end up losing money instead of breaking even and helping out fellow CAGs. You also need to pay for your own bundle as part of this. At least I do.
I'm sure CheapLikeAFox can correct anything I got wrong. Thanks for stepping up. Had I not just picked up some silver age comics, I'd volunteer to do a second group buy. I still might once I get the first group taken care of.

Ok purchased 1 bundle for a dollar.
If you would like in on a group buy shoot me a PM with how many bundles you want, price should be between 1 and 2 dollars I'm guessing not exactly sure.
Can only be paid with paypal, sorry if that's a problem ><

the OP of the IG deal thread explains it a bit. seems like its 4 bundles at a time if you buy in the first week and checking some box "its a gift" or something.

I'm not sure if this is allowed here, but I have some leftovers of IndieGala bundle 7 (king's bounty: armored princess) and 8 (sacred: gold). Can I sell them here?
IndieGala bundle 7 (2x) - $2.60 (kinda messed up on my first happy hour buy hence the high price) [$13.00/5]
IndieGala bundle 8 (1x) - $1.75 [$7.00/4]
Also, I can gift this out straight forward right, without worrying about other users getting access to the other keys right? Just by adding in the email below "Send the gift to a Friend!!! Insert email here and push the button!"?

Here's the info I gave Mr. Crabe:
Alright, here's the run down:
Right now go buy an Indie Gala bundle for yourself (NOT A GIFT) and remember the email address you use.
During happy hour go to your Indie Gala URL or the main Indie Gala page and buy 5 gift packs using the same email address. The instructions on how to buy gift packs are listed on the main Indie Gala page as follows:
Give a Gala to your friends! And enjoy our Gift PACKS!
Click the "Is it a gift?" checkbox!
Give 2 gifts for more than: $8.77
Give 3 gifts for more than: $12.52
Give 4 gifts for more than: $16.28
Give 5 gifts for more than: $18.79
All gift packs ( Gift packs are listed on the left, when you buy in a single purchase more than 1 gift! ) are FULL BUNDLES!
It means they contain all bonuses!
Just remember to check the "Is it a gift?" checkbox!
CHECK THE MAIN INDIE GALA PAGE PRIOR TO PURCHASING!!!
This is important since they often times RAISE the amount needed to purchase 5 gift packs during happy hour and you have to be sure you enter the right amount.
DO NOT enter any emails in the "Gift Email" section, leave all those blank.
After purchase check your Indie Gala URL registered to that email and there should be 20 Gift Bundle URLs listed on that page.
What I do is add the amount I paid for the gifts, plus the initial dollar I paid to be an early buyer and I divide that amount by 20. I then PM everyone with my paypal email and ask them to GIFT me that amount and tell me what email they want me to send their URL to. I also take Amazon gift cards as payment, but you do not have to. Paypal gifts will not incur any fees to you.
I then email them their Indie Gala URL once I receive payment. I use an excel spreadsheet to keep track of who gets what URL by number. I usually reserve number 1 for myself and then the rest go in chronological order of payment. Good to keep the spreadsheet for future reference. I also prefer to email URLs as gmail has unlimited storage basically so I have proof I emailed whereas CAG PM system is very limited. You can also use the Indie Gala system to email them their URLs (This is a new feature I believe as previous bundles I did were missing that option on my URL page).

Having a hard time finding a group buy host for this one (9) for some reason, and I really want this bundle. If you're hosting one and you read this, please just PM me how much to PP and where and I'll send it right away. (Will edit when I find someone.)

So far we have 3 different group buys full. I don't know if anyone else is up for a second round, but once I get the first round set up, I might be up for a second. Keep an eye on the thread. If myself or anyone else ends up hosting, I think it's only fair to make it first come first served via PM as putting the money up front for the group buy, as well as organizing and distributing the keys is enough work as it is. I know I won't be watching the thread.
Actually, anybody mind if I make that an official rule and put it in the OP?

Please do. Although my friendly suggestion obviously went ignored, judging by the last dozen or so posts, and I imagine the change to the OP will as well.

Please don't take this proposal as any kind of slight. I just think it's fair to let people know up front what is expected. If I were just hosting a 5 person group buy, I'd have no problem grabbing people out of the thread. When you have to juggle 20 slots, however, there's a lot of work involved with that. With me having recently found gainful employment again, I just don't have the time to hunt down who does or doesn't need to be in a bundle. It's not like we're getting rich off this. We're doing it as a service to the CAG community. I know I've been hooked up big time through various threads over the years and I see this as a way to give back some.

The OP is a wiki right? What about this idea:
In the OP, we have each hosters of the bundle edit the OP with a list (1 to 20) of available indie gala bundle spot
Each person who wants to buy a gift edits the OP themselves to put their names on an available spot
OR
In the case of no available host, a list of 1 to 20 will be on the OP. Any one interested in a spot edits the OP and adds their name (& profile link) to the list.
A CAG who wants to host can use the list to PM each interested person.
Rules:
1) If you take a spot, you must PM that hoster you signed up for to arrange payment and etc.
2) Do NOT send PMs to other hosters which did not sign up for a spot.
Pros:
Hosters may have an easier time looking for people who want a bundle (as oppose to having to look through individual posts)
Cons:
Maybe too confusing?
People who don't follow rules and PMs every hoster
The Goal is the make it easier for the host. Don't know if this will work but its a thought.

I too made my post because there are no groups currently available and I wanted to express interest for more. I did PM someone but was too late. Please don't make assumptions about us ignoring anything.
Anyway... I think voken's idea is great.

09-23-2012, 12:46 PM
Ok, I edited the OP to have a list of indie gala spots.
Those interested in buying up a bundle, please add yourself to the OP list in the format [Username (Profile link)].
There's no host yet but hopefully this makes things easier for someone to host. (not having to browse through posts for interested buyers)
mink-e
09-23-2012, 01:10 PM
I'm all for seeing how it works out. My one big concern is that since the wiki can be edited by anyone, we all know that at some point, somebody will screw with the list and someone will end up getting removed from the list.
That said, if I end up doing a second group buy, I'm willing to give it a shot once and see how it goes. I'll end up just taking down the user names, sending one group PM and go from there.
As an aside to people hosting, if you take a group of 20 people for a group buy, delete all the usernames so we don't get any overlapping.
For people wanting to get on a group buy, only put your name on the list if you're ready to send funds immediately. If you get a PM saying your bundle is ready but don't respond within two days, the hoster has the right to move on to someone else.

Okay since people seems not to follow the current conversation or the OP. Here the note:
If you are interested in a bundle spot, go to the OP and add yourself on the list to let potential hosts know.
Rules:
1) If you take a spot, you must PM that hoster you signed up for to arrange payment and etc.
2) Do NOT send PMs to other hosters which did not sign up for a spot.

That is ridiculous. Co-ordination is fine the way it is within the thread.
1) When you are dealing with 20-pack group buy, anything that can potentially make things easier for the host is welcomed.
2) Things are obviously not as fine as you think they are, otherwise mink-e wouldn't have to suggest a easier way to hunt for interested buyers for a 2nd group buy. I, for example, have hosted group buys and have either had the trouble of finding buyers OR had tons of PMs in my inbox and having to go to the trouble of replying to people. (only to find some people having already bought it from another host).
3) Its takes little work to edit the OP to add yourself to a list so when a host is available, he already has a organized list of buyers.
4) If you want to host, you can always implement your own rules. Its a suggestion, not law obviously.
