The first shipment has been recieved...in
Brazil! Shinyspirit PMed me to let me know it arrived safely!
Also...the shipments have been made to Ireland and North America!
Regarding the North American shipment...all stock was mailed to
Megan in Canada...she will forward 1 to Idoladdict and the 3 US bound CDs to Congrazia...Congrazia will then ship the remaining 2 within the states.
Make sense guys? You will need to PM each other the appropriate sending addresses!
I am still awaiting an address from revanraider to ship to Singapore...I will do a shipment of 3.
Revanraider, I know this is far below the 15 requested, but it would be great if some of those who requested them from you would come online here and make the request themselves! What do you think?
So, heres the current shipping list,

PENDING- AWAITING ADDRESS!So, now that that is done....Janny and I would like to take a break from this...we've done a fair bit of buying and shipping, plus the fact that both of us will be gone from the board for a while these coming couple of months...
We still have a partial order pending for revanraider in Singapore should anyone wish to fill it, or do as much as they can to...
The method that Janny and used of one person buying then sending to the overseas shipper worked really well.
If any of the following volunteers are still interested, I would consider finding a partner to do it with:
The donators/helpers:Winterlong (temporarily retired!)
Jim
Belinda
Neski - buying
Cin59
Janny (temporarily retired!)
Memi
Something else for shippers to consider...as long as you keep the bubble wrap to a minimum (one layer both sides) and use padded bags, it is most cost effective to ship in quantities of
3,
7 (7 is borderline for weight...6 is safe!) or
11 ie it costs as much to send 6/7 as it does to send 4 due to weight thresholds.
And example of costs:
Shipping 3 CDs by Air:
To Asia: 7.25
To North America: 8.25
To Rest of the World: 9.75
(add $1.20 for post pack and extra for bubble wrap if required)
by Sea (long delay)
$6
(add $1.20 for post pack and extra for bubble wrap if required)
Shipping 6-7 CDs note that weight is on threshold..7 may be overweight!
by Air:
To Asia: 11.50
To North America: 13.50
To Rest of the World: 16.50
(add $1.40 for post pack and extra for bubble wrap if required)
by Sea (long delay)
$9.50
(add $1.40 for post pack and extra for bubble wrap if required)
Shipping single CDsSingle cds in a mailer box count as a letter!
To Asia: $2.50
To Rest of the World: $3.70
(add $1.50 for mailer box)
I hope we have enough interested parties to keep this little scheme going!
Also...can I ask a little favour?
Shinyspirit, we (and D) might get a kick out of seeing the NOML in a typically 'brazilian' location (mind OUT of the gutter, perves! :
..
How about those who receive them sending us a pick of "D" in an overseas location? I'd love to see that!
