2013 Calendar for sale

Post by bfons »

Hey all,

I have the proof approved and now will wait for the print. This will be about 10 days max.

I'm looking for an AU distributor since it will cut costs tremendously.

Ron agreed to take care of EU.

I'm hoping somebody will act as distributor. It's a ton of money to ship these to AU

As I have no responsibilities I will take on the distributorship for Australia so long as you tell me in simple English what is required.

Hoadie / M6dave apologies didn't look to where your location was.

There is a buy site for Canada / USA and Europe, where does Australia pay our money to.

AU is ready....

Guys, I'm really sorry that shipping is so much. A small secret is that over the past years, I have eaten a large part of the AU shipping costs. I just can't do it this year.

Ben needs about $10 to get them to you and I need quite a bit to send them to Ben. It's frustrating as I hate to charge SO much. EU is so much cheaper yet 1000s of miles further. I just dont get it....

Brian,

Try using one of the USPS Priority Mail Flat Rate Boxes. About $50 for a decent sized box that you can stuff at least 20 calendars in. Now, if only you had 20 on order, that would make it more economical. Good luck.

USPS will only mail via Express Mail to AU.

Brian; can you make a decent size box to fit, out of a larger box with a box cutter?? Send it regular mail? ](*,) :idea:
My Grip thing is kickin' in.
When you cut the new size, only cut through a half layer, fold to fit & use some really sticky tape to re-enforce the new edges & corners you've created.
Maybe go to a Costco to get a coupla boxes.
I've asked them for some boxes & they've always said to get what I need.
TIP: Don't use duct tape! It's wimpy. I have some slammin' Grip tape! Give me your address & I'll send it to you, in a one roll tape box I'll create.
As a back-up, maybe use the string that you tie you christmas tree to your car with as a back up. You know how to wrap a ribbon around a present right?
Same-same.
Well, I'm through Grippin' for the day anyway.
Thanx for all you do,,,,Greg
Ps,,,Seriously, you need this tape! PM me. 8-[

I shipped speaker grills to AU in a box that would easily hold 20 calendars and it was like $75.00 US Mail, took over a week to get there. Not Express.

Thx for trying to help guys.

In 8 years of selling calendars, I've had 2 packages that never made it to AU or UK.

Costed me some serious coin. These are going over either UPS or Fedex. Time is also an issue and I cannot take my chances with USPS at this time

Since that's the case, you must charge accordingly, right?
I know our Aussie & Euro friends understand.
