[Johnathan]

Dario,your a saint for organizing all of this! I hope that everyone has thanked you. Getting payments, orders, trips to the bank, etc. are all time consuming.

 

[Dario]

Johnathan,

No need to thank me, I like doing it (I think)...plus need to save on the 6 kits I will get (yep just 6) [B)]. Remember I did this on my own, no one asked me to.

Last time I did this, I lost $30.00+ due to missed expenses (insurance) and an error in my calculation (gave 30% on an item instead of 25%). Hopefully I got it figured out properly now.

The most difficult part here is tabulating the orders (and shipping them out) correctly. It may look like we are only dealing with 5 kits but know that it comes in FP/RB, different finish and some have end cap options. After all is considered, it is like dealing with 38 kits and LOTS of accessories [:0].

IF I ever make an error in any order...I am asking for apologies now in advance. I will make is right, just hope you can cut me some slack if it does happen [].

Monty, Anthony, Daniel, Johnny and Mikey probably can relate better on this.

[lwalden]

Dario- I need to add to my order- I want to get 11 of the threaded end caps for the Jr. Statesman vII in Rhodium- I'm assuming this can be combined with my earlier order to save on shipping- and I'm not sure about the two different prices showing for this item- please let me know how you want to handle- I'll be paying via paypal again, so will need to include the additional 3 1/2 %. Thanks-


Paypal sent for the 11 endcaps discussed above- 11 @ 2.34 = $25.74, + 3.5% for paypal fee (.90) = $26.64

Archie

 

[Dario]

Lyle,

No problem about changing orders...I just don't want it done on the original post since I am not going to review those anymore. Of course it will all be calculated one time (one shipping [])

The 2 prices are for tapered and threaded...look at the heading of the list.

 

[Dario]

Archie,

Checks are still okay until the 5th.

 

[hombre4]

Dario; I have tried sending you an email but for some reason I can't. Please send me your address and I can get a check out to you tomorrow.

Thanks.....Archie

[Dario]

Brian (turf49)

I will leave that call to you.

I am not sure if your order will fit in one box but know that Emperors and Estatesman come in their own boxes. From memory, boxes are approximately 3/4" x 3-1/2" x 5-1/2".

If you really are not sure you can add another shipping and if it fits in one box, I'll refund you the extra amount [].

Thank you,

[turff49]

Dario,
I'll add an additional 850 for shipping just to be safe. Last thing I want is to be one that would end up costing "you" money after going to all this effort for us. I wasn't sure how much room each one would take. My order is large enough you may have to pack it in a box other than what the PO has. Paypal will be on it's way shortly. Thanks Again, Brian

 

[Dario]

The coundown is on...(as of this posting) we only have <b>7 hours to go!!!

This CLOSES AT MIDNIGHT TONIGHT (central time) NO EXCEPTIONS!!!</b>

Thank you.

 

[lwalden]

Bit of an off-topic post here, but given the kits being ordered I'm hoping for some feedback from the group. Presentation boxes for the larger pens- Emperors, Statesmens, and Gentlemens- what are you guys using? I have some of the cardboard boxes that Dario indicated would work by removing the small riser flaps, but I'm hoping to find a source for something a little more upscale. Bill Baumbeck doesn't supply inserts for his larger wooden boxes- I believe there's not been enough demand to make it worth his time, given the minimum order quantity of 2000 I believe he's stuck with. I did find a couple of jewelry stlye cases on the close out rack at my local woodcraft intended for a pen and pencil set that works for the larger size, and I really like the way they look, but they're not carrying those anymore. Not real crazy about the Regal boxes from Craft supplies- would prefer some sort of lined interior, and an additional $13.00 boxes starts adding up. Maybe I'm being to picky- but I'd appreciate any feedback you might have to offer on this- Thanks.

 

[Dario]

This group buy is CLOSED.

Thanks!

 

[Dario]

I received a few checks today...will update the main post for payments received over the weekend. I will also finalize the tabulation and post what we, as a group, will be ordering at that time.

Checks will be deposited as they come in...please make sure they are funded...don't want to be paying bounced check fees [].

Thank you,

 

[sptfr43]

Dario, were you still taking paypal orders? you mentioned possibly going until the 10th. if not it's ok, just wondering. thanks

 

[Dario]

Randy,

If you are paying via paypal...I will accept your order.
