Chance,

Considering a number of people don't use Paypal, it would be wise to check that the system Randy set up to allow for Credit Card payments is still functional too.

:cool:

Did you read my last post?
 
I've been checking my user console everyday now.
As soon as I receive an invoice it will be paid immediately.
 
The out of country USPS orders, like I said, are painfully slow. For each order, I have to input all the shipping information from the stored names in the address book (as if I were shipping) just to get the quote. After I receive payment, I must do it all over again along with customs forms all filled out to print the label. Once the label is printed, it is deducted from my account. This is for EACH out of USA order.

With Fed Ex, I can have everything ready to ship right from the address book, with the label afixed, and I am not charged until the order is picked up/scanned.
 
No Invoice yet but I'm ready to pay. I ordered a 73 so I'm assuming that the mics and pres will ship together.

I too am interested in any leftover gear (esp. a ACM-1200 and another 73). My brother told me last night he's also interested in "unclaimed " or leftover gear. You shouldn't have any problems unloading any residual stock, Chance.

Paul:D

BTW, how about some more pix, please.
 
Shipping Invoice Available: NO

I just have two 73s, ready whenever you are, Chief.

hey chance, if space is an issue, my order was for 16 preamps and 23 mics. i can pay right this second if you need. that would clear some surface area for you... thanks again, chance!

Never mind about that, I just realised that won't work...I have split my order to avoid customs duty. Carry on :)


Also the amount requested by email was also present in the GB console, so I have paid the shipping requested. That is payment done for 1 of my orders !


edit: just realised I'm in the same boat as rmaier. I just paid, but the shipping invoice total was for 0.31

I just checked and I received a payment from you for .31 cents. I don't understand. I haven't even sent you your invoice yet.

Does it make sense to do a bunch of US-domestic orders up front to help with cash flow? Just askin' :D:D

Thats not the problem because with domestic orders, as Fed Ex scans the pkg when they pick up, then and only then it automatically deducts what you paid.
In other words when x dollars come in (your pymt), x dollars goes out (to Fed ex)

Compared to USPS, Fed Ex is painless and fast.

Chance,

When you're entering the shipping information with USPS for each order, are you just trying to get a quote for your own reference, or are you printing out a quote with each address the first time?

If it's just for your own reference, with this calculator, when you switch the destination country to something other than USA, you only need to enter in the weight of the shipment, to get your options, and price quote, if that's all you need.

My business does a lot of overseas shipping.
Easiest way we have found is flat rate USPS Priority International boxes.
Free from the post office and they will deliver the boxes in bulk if you order them from their sight.
They have a multitude of box sizes and dimensions.
Canada and Mexico $29.95
Everywhere else in the world $49.95
Not sure if every order would fit into specific boxes but it might be worth a look.

I could square up immediately if that was up.

Thanks.

Of course there isn't any shipping info, your order has not been invoiced, packed and calculated yet. There could be 300 people ahead of you.

I am using Priority International with USPS. Thats the cheapest rate. They DO NOT offer multiple pkgs like Fed ex. Many have several pkgs in their order and must be treated as an individual order. They say 6 to 10 days. I haven't invoiced anything under $100.00 total shipping cost yet.
 
I'm now going to take the last-phase-of-the-group-buy pledge, because I see that I need to, based on my recent posts:

[hand over heart] I, antichef pledge not to post anymore to this thread in a way that requests a reply from Chance until after the last of the Group Buy orders have been shipped, even if my ass falls off, because Chance has enough to do and I want him to be able to focus on getting the orders shipped without worrying about replying to my posts. I promise to read this thread frequently, and to check my email and user console for my shipping invoice frequently, and to pay up right away as soon as it's clear that I can do so.
