I hate to be one to post something like this, but can someone post links to every site that currently offers UMCs? I'm in Canada for those who don't remember. I'm looking to buy somewhere in the neighbourhood of 200-250 cases. Thanks.

I think the only shops selling UGC's are mediashelving and thevideostoreshopper.....

The links to their sites are:

http://www.shopperinc.com/product.htm?pid=572959

There are no other stores i know about where they have UGC's.... But you're luckier than I because I think they at least ship to canada.....

Yeah I placed an order at the videoshopper for 230 and the guy called me and said I HAVE to place orders in increments of 100...so I'm going to probably end up with way more than I need, because I need somewhere around 220. 200 alone isn't enough. Since I know there are people here that would like the cases but can't access them, would anyone be interested in re-buying my unneeded ~80 or so cases? Canada Post could easily ship them internationally. That is, assuming they arrive undamaged. Man I still can't beleive some of what you guys have been through.

If you could hold 50 off them until july I would take them in an instant.... I just ordered 50 from another forum member yesterday so this month my budget for UGCs is used up but as I said next month.....

Just if it's possible for you....

Okay people.....I have a new problem. I'm going to call the video shopper tomorrow to try to work things out, but this is what it looks liike.

300 UMCs - $126 USD
Shipping - GODDAMN $250 USD
+ undisclosed interional customs taxes/fees.

That seems rather.......rediculosuly expnesive. And I'm just in CANADA! So I'm in a bind here. What can I do....maybe that sending it to the US and then back to the country you need thing some of you have done? But as said, I'm going to call again tommorrow and see if I can strike a deal with videoshopper. If not, is there any other alternitive seller of these cases? Maybe my questions and concerns have already been answered, Ill have to completely read the earlier posts later, but I'd like some assistance if possible. Thanks everyone.

  I know those problems with the videoshopper very very well! I can assure you that they'll never offer you any cheaper shipping options.... You can talk to them for ages and the'll still say sorry but that's our shipping carrier....
Maybe mediashelving will ship it cheaper? I think I once read on their site that they ship to canada as well...

Okay well I've contacted mediashelving too, which seems to be more organized. Since the cases are heavy (the guy at the videoshopper said 300 cases = ~50 lbs) shipping goes incredibly high, espically for international orders. I'm wondering for those who have already bought them: does it make more sense to simply buy them 100 at a time? If I made three seperte orders of 100 cases, I think shipping overall would be cheaper. That's my theory anyway. 

[satoshi_matrix]

Mediashelving is much more reasonable...

300 cases = $126.00
Shipping = $79.85 FedEx Ground Shipping
total $205.85 (FOB Simi Valley CA)

I'm still worried about extra customs charges though...
