Yes but then only 33.3 people can get them! I still think we should set this up to work like a magazine subscription and take orders for the whole year and then every month a new one comes



I would like to mention that i love this idea.

It would save time on having to collect orders and re compile a list every time.

Its like a cheese of the month club.

Multiplying like rabbits


I was looking at having to sort around 5000 keys for the Novelty Buy so I was forced to make the appropriate arrangements to fit the timeframe I had proposed.

also, how is shipping in Australia? 6 of you are from around there, would it be cheaper if somebody was a proxy and you guys shared shipping?

I was going to suggest becoming a proxy for this, but it really requires everyone to go along with it to make the shipping maybe $1 less (but it seems like it wont even be cheaper). Assuming I go with priority shipping for $18, the current shipping price between us is 6*8 = $48. Take away my cost to ship leaves $30. $30 to ship to 5 other people puts it at $6 per person. $1 for the cheapest padded envelope and sadly (unless I checked it wrong before), it'll be about $5 to post that padded envelope via standard postage.

This also assumes $1AUD = 1USD, but at the moment the Aussie dollar is a tad stronger.

It seems to be only beneficial for everyone if I could get that many keys posted via first class from the US, and/or if the actually postage costs in Australia were a lot less (I may have put in the wrong numbers in the auspost website).

I'm happy to have my own standard shipping to australia as its already been paid for. Shipping within australia is so **** its not worth shipping it all here then shipping it again. Shipping from Victoria to West Australia costs a lot as it is.

But if you want to ship me the lot and PM me the address for the other 5 i could do that, not sure how you wanted to work out postage refunds to the other buyers though as I'm guessing they also have paid for shipping?

I am pretty sure 500ct is $.51 and the 750 will be $.46 with 1000 being $.41... dunno though; yours is a much cheaper price scale than the novelty buy was. 1500ct was our $.41 price.

$1.44 is expensive as hell. That is why these cost in the range of $.51 now.

so are they .51 or 1.44 now? OP says 1.44 doesn't it. only $14 at the end of the day. I just wanted to help out and order some more. Ill probably use 4 and give some to my mates.

If it .51 ill order 20.
