Participatory subscription
​
The subscription period is open from 10/20/2023 and will close on 12/31/2023.
We think that it is not useful to leave more time, either this project speaks to you and you decide quickly so as not to miss this opportunity, or it does not interest you and even if you had more time, you would not subscribe!
You still have 2 months to decide, but the sooner we arrive at the result, the sooner manufacturing will begin! ​
But, we have no doubt, thanks to all of you, we can make things happen!
You can be one of those who help the French “0” develop more quickly, rather than letting it stagnate.
For this, we need the greatest number of participants as for the refrigerated wagons which received a very good reception from enthusiasts.
We have no doubt that this project will quickly find its fans.
Support this project by financing the first phase of manufacturing through your subscriptions.
You will thus be able to be proud to have advanced the French “0” and at the same time to be able to offer yourself beautiful models to which you have contributed to their creation at reduced prices to reward you for your support and trust.
Through your subscriptions, you will also help us define the quantities to produce for each decoration.
The pre-sale is set at 200 examples of these essential wagons with markings that smell of France.
There is nothing utopian in our proposal since if each member of the Circle of Zero reserves a copy, fundraising is assured and in view of the subscriptions which had been recorded for the refrigerated wagons.
To thank you for reaching this goal of 200 copies, we are offering you a reward in the form of a substantial discount depending on your involvement rate.
From -5% to -25% depending on the quantity of model subscribed.
The prices indicated in parentheses are the prices excluding VAT (excluding tax) intended for amateurs residing outside an EEC country and to whom we will send a shipment with the obligatory administrative declarations to validate the export.
For residents of an EEC member country and France, the prices are inclusive of VAT (All Taxes Included).
Subscription and reservation rates are no longer valid. They are there for information purposes to show the prices that subscribers were able to benefit from by trusting us from the beginning. The current rate as of 10/2024 for orders is: €198.00 (€165.00 excluding VAT)
The estimated base price when the model is released today is €195.00 (€162.50 excluding VAT)
So take advantage of the decreasing prices that we offer you
- 1 copy = €185.30 (€154.40 excluding VAT)
- 2 copies = €175.50 (€146.25 excluding tax) each = €351.00 (€292.50 excluding tax)
- 3 copies = €165.80 (€138.20 excluding tax) each = €497.40 (€414.50 excluding tax)
- 4 copies = €156.00 (€130.00 excluding tax) each = €624.00 (€520.00 excluding tax)
- 5 copies = €146.50 (€122.10 excluding tax) each = €732.50 (610.40 excluding tax)
To obtain the strongest discount, mixing between the different references is possible.
You are not obliged to buy the same model 5 times but you can also do so since certain versions are offered to you with 5 different registrations!
You can also group up with; friends, friends, members of your club to get the best discount.
In this case, a single payment, a single delivery address and a single contact person are requested to simplify communication. ​
For enthusiasts who want several copies (from 2 wagons) but who cannot budget for it in one go, we offer the possibility of paying for them in 3 installments free of charge.
See the conditions on the subscription form page 2.
Shipping costs will be defined when the equipment is made available.
