any Americans willing to help me out?

[Dr.Agon]

hi all, so i tried to order some UGC's from videostoreshopper and got as far as an invoice, then they stopped answering my emails!, its been 3 weeks now without a word,

so heres the plan; someone in the US buys 200, i worked out that the maximum i will ever need is 160, so whoever it is gets to keep 40, i would fully pay for the 200, plus any additional shipping costs to securly pack them and ship them to me in the UK

any takers?

Yeah, I'm in Columbus, OH and I'd be glad to help you take care of that. I've never ordered any of these cases, but I'd love to try them out. So, I guess I'd order 200 and then ship you 160 of them? Not a problem! mediashelving.com?

You can email me at thmarioxb at gmail.com with all of the details.

Dr.Agon email them. I just got my 200 off them a few days ago but the only way to pay them is to wire it via your bank which is expensive as you have to pay your bank fee and there bank fee on top of paying for them and shipping, then you have to pay the import tax when they arrive. A guy called Mark sorted it all out for me (same guy sorted my first case out a year ago too).

Man, you shoulda hit me up about a month ago.  I JUST sent Azarkhel a case

cool!, thanks a lot!

yeah, like i said i'll only ever need 160, but i cant order that so it'd have to be 200, the remaining 40 would be your reward for helping me out!, the only unknown at this point is the cost...

Man, you shoulda hit me up about a month ago.  I JUST sent Azarkhel a case

damn! didnt think to go this route 'til a couple of days ago!
where is Azarkhel?, any chance of a rough estimate of shipping?

its not gonna be this month, i have to get my dad a birthday present, but it'll definatly be next month!

[Azarkhel]

Shipping was like $130 dude.

[marioxb]

I'm sure it would cost me a LOT less than that to ship them overseas. What's the shipping like for mediashelving to USA?

[Dr.Agon]

Shipping was like $130 dude.

where is that from/to?, mediashelving quoted me $150 shipping for one box to the UK

I'm sure it would cost me a LOT less than that to ship them overseas. What's the shipping like for mediashelving to USA?

for some odd reason they only use fed-ex, im sure the US postal service would charge a lot less

[Azarkhel]

Shipping was from US to Australia.

[wiggy]

USPS Priority to Australia ended up being almost exactly $115 for 100 cases.  If the box I used had been 1" larger in any direction, then I would have been forced to use Global Express, which would have cost about $250.   


If you want to calculate how much it would cost to ship to you, then go here

http://postcalc.usps.gov/

The box will weigh about 22lbs for 100 cases and the dimensions for the box I used were 13"x16"x20".  Girth restrictions vary from country to country, so you may be able to get away with a larger box or you may end up being stuck with Global Priority for a box the size that I used.  As an FYI, they BARELY fit into the box that I used with minimal extra padding.  I only had room to brace the corners with an extra layer of cardboard.

1 Box from the US to the EU costs around 80USD priority. You have to add the domestic shipping on top if you have someone who resends it to you.

[wiggy]

That's what Azarkhel and I did.  I think his 1/3 of the shipping was 18.50 (I ordered 3 cases, so I really only needed him to pay a portion of it).

[Dr.Agon]

cool!, thanks for all the info/help guys!
sadly i have to delay these for another month because the tax man has decided he needs all of my money!
