Hey guys, to help you with cost figuring, for the bag buy I organized, I placed each bundle of 100 in a large light brown envelope (the kind with the metal clasp).

Shipping a package of 100 baggies cost me between $5.25 or so and about $6.50 (Parcel post) each, depending on destination.

If I can remember to do it, I'll get off my fanny tomorrow and order a 1,000 pack from the vendor. Anyone who wants in can let me know how many they want. We don't have to wait for 1,000 to get them ordered.

As for the cost, I'll leave the shipping method up to each person. Priority mail is easy as I can print the labels at home and just drop them in the box. For the Canada folks, I can send them parcel post or Global Priority or whatever. A flat rate envelope to Canada is $9.00.

I can accept ****** for payment, I just ask that everyone kick a little extra as ****** takes 2.9% plus .30 off the top and I don't want to lose money on this deal

If I don't post in a day or so and say they are ordered, someone PM me and remind me.

okay. I went ahead and ordered the bags. I'll post here again when I have them. Pricing looks like this: Cost for the box = $48. Shipping to me is $12. Total = $60. So, $6.00 per hundred plus shipping. Priority Mail to anywhere in the U.S. is $4.60, so the total is $10.60.

****** is going to hit me for 2.9% plus .30 in fees, so by my calculations, if I get $11.23 via ******, after fees that will net to $10.60.

If you want me to ship via some other method or to a country other than the U.S., let me know and I can figure out the cost. I have two PMs so far, one from chinomalo and one from karmaz00, both for 100 bags. I'll probably keep 200 myself, so that leaves 600 remaining.

As I said, I don't need to sell all of them now to make this happen. The bags are ordered. If you want in, send me a PM with your ebay name and I can send you an invoice. Let me know where and how you want it shipped. My guess is that Parcel Post won't be that much cheaper, but it's up to you.

okay, so we are down to 500 bags remaining

[jim@mindofmen.com]

Okay gang, bags came in today. Weight of 100 bags is 1 lb, 9 oz with packaging. The problem is that the flat rate for Priority mail goes up once you go over 1 lb, so Priority mail to the West Coast from my place is $7.50. You don't save much with parcel post - $6.15 and it takes longer. Media Mail is an option for $2.47. If the package does not have to go all the way to the West Coast, it will be cheaper.

I will be shipping from zip code 01772. You can use the USPS to price things out and choose what method you want me to use to send it to you. Please also provide me your ****** address and I will create an invoice and send it to you. Once I receive payment, I will send out the bags.

I will ship them in lots of 100, and I still have several hundred left if anyone else wants in. Again, keep in mind that I will charge a bit more than the postage plus bag cost to cover the 2.9% ****** will hit me with. See my previous post on this. I won't make any money on this, I just don't want to lose money.

PM me with your choice of shipping, ****** address as well as the ship to zip code so I can figure out the correct shipping price.

thanks

[karmaz00]
