group buy
Bulk discount together
A group buy is a collective purchase where multiple buyers pool orders to secure bulk pricing or access limited-production items.
Common in enthusiast communities—mechanical keyboards, audiophile gear, specialty goods—where manufacturers won't produce without guaranteed minimum orders: The group buy for those keycaps closes Friday.
Participants typically pay upfront and wait months for delivery.
