Kurrk, I would prefer not to unless it was a lot cheaper. I find that city link tends to be cheaper/or the same price to the EU.

I waiting for my tax slip to come through the door, then I will pack everything and work out your postage. Then when EVERYBODY has paid, they will be then collected by parcelforce. Looks like 2-4 days to most of Europe.

OK got my invoice to pay (well, actually I rang them up, they said they sent the invoice on the 2nd stupid royal mail). Came in 2 boxes, each invoice is for 26.15*2=52.3
Each person needs to pay 5.23gbp import tax. If anyone wants a copy of the import tax invoice for any reason, pm me. I'm not posting it up here because it's got my info on.

I need to order packaging materials. 3 ways of doing this.
1, I order boxes and include it in your shipping charge
2, I order brown paper and bubblewrap and include it in your shipping charge.
3, I make boxes out of cardboard I have and order some bubblewrap. I would like 1gbp per box I make as it's going to take quite a bit of my and my girlfriends time. Then the bubblewrap on top.

I would prefer 3, not for money but because I need to cut down on the cardboard I have stored in my bedroom and I don't like throwing packaging out... :) If anyone wants to go with 3 but doesn't want to pay the 1gbp for my time, that is fine just say.

I will leave it until tomorrow mid day for what people want me to do, so I can then order supplies. I need to get these shipped by next Friday at the latest because I'm hopefully going back to work the following Monday.

Any joint orders please say so. 7bit and half-saint, already doing yours together.

I'll do 3 then. OK, I have hospital tomorrow, bike fitting on sat, so I will get everything packed up and weighed on Sunday. Sunday evenings I will just make a post in this thread on what everybody owes. Once everybody has paid it will be collected the next day. Shipment will then take 2-5 days depending on where you live.

Can no one pay for the tax yet? I've had one person pay and I will deduct it of his shipping bill, but to make things easy for me, I want to do it with one last payment.
Cheers guys,
Dave.

I don't want people to pay for the import tax yet. I want them to pay it when they pay the shipping cost.

Shipping and tax combined. Shipping was more than I thought it would be so I'm not charging you anything for the boxes as it was only my time and have a lot of that to spare atm.
Ascaii and halfsaint = 14gbp eachBOTH PAID
7bit (2boards) = 28gbp
Webwit = 28gbpPAID
Pasph = 28gbp subtract 5.60 that you have already paid for the tax.PAID
Kurrk = 28gbpPAID
Fruktstund = 33.50gbpPAID
002 = 55gbpPAID
Make sure you cover paypal fees or pay by gift. I'm really broke at the moment so can't really cover mistakes. Any questions just ask. Kurrk, you have still got to pm me your address.

Once EVERYBODY has paid I will transfer the money to my bank account (24hrs), then set up the courier (next day if I order before 8pm) then the parcels should be with you within the week, maybe a bit longer for you 002.

If anybody NEEDS to delay payment I can hold a package back but PM me so I know what is happening so I can send the rest.

Cheers guys.

Is it OK to send £2 more to cover all costs when paying £28?

Fees should be 1.15. If anyone wants to work it out, it looks like it's 3.4% plus 20p.

If I'm wrong can someone please say so. Any leftover money once everything is paid for will go to deskthority.

Should I be marking things as sent or shouldn't it matter as it's only a few hundred quid?

This is to cover the shipping from you to us, right? What's that with me and Ascaii? :D

I sent 1.15 for the fees.. didn't realise that was for guys paying 28 pounds. Well, keep the change!

All "change" is being donated to deskthority at the end anyway. And the amount is to cover shipping from me to you and import tax.

OK everyone has now paid. I'm transferring it to my bank account. Shipping will be booked tomorrow for Thursday.

Edited the "not" out of transferring it to my back account.
