We received an unsolicited email late last year and thought it may be a good idea to share this with our readers. If everything that was mentioned in the email is legitimate, then perhaps we can help each other by organizing a HairSite Buy-in-Bulk program. A copy of the email is included below. Please proceed to read the email as follow:

Subject: Export Rogaine- Attention: Director Purchasing

To: Director/Manager of Purchasing

Dear Sir/Madam:

We are in a position to export "Rogaine- 5%" manufactured by Upjohn, USA in a   special tri-pack ( 3 bottles each containing 2oz). Total 6 oz.

Depending on the quantity ordered, the current export prices for each  tri-pack will range between $38.00 and $42.00 ex-warehouse, Los Angeles, California.

If interested, please email us your requirements with full particulars in order to submit a quotation.

Samples are available, packed in one carton containing four (4) tri-packs @$200.00 plus shipping & handling.

Thank you for your immediate response.

Best regards,

HD Keyes
Chairman

We have not contacted the company at this point. For the time being, we would like to see if there is enough interest in the whole idea of purchasing in bulk for all our readers before we proceed to contact the company. As far as the logistics are concerned: we are open to any ideas that can make this work. HairSite has no intention to make money out of this. This is strictly a service for all our readers. If there is sufficient interest for this idea, HairSite is willing to purchase 100 boxes of (tri-pack) Rogaine 5% from this company in advance. In return, HairSite will disburse the Rogaine 5% to whoever wishes to purchase the goods AT COST plus mailing by prority mail in the U.S.

Currently, the cost for two bottles of Rogaine 5% in New York is about US $54, or about US $27 per bottle.  According to the above email, the cost for three bottles is about US $42, or US $14 per bottle. The cost for priority mail in the U.S is only US $3.25, which should be sufficient for mailing 3 bottles of Rogaine 5% at a time. The mathematics does suggest that we can save quite a bit if we purchase in bulk from this company.

Honestly, we have no idea what is the best way to structure this arrangement in order to make it work. Again, HairSite does not stand to benefit from this. We can already get a small quantity of Rogaine 5% at wholesale from a couple of pharmacies for personal use. We post the email here strictly for the benefits of our friends.

If you have any good ideas for this arrangement, please email HairSite@aol.com
