Probably mid to late November if there's enough to order. Minimum 10 items to qualify as a group order with free shipping to AUS. So I'll need a few people interested to place the order.

Here's the list of people interested in buying a timer/mat:
Tim 2
Feliks 1
Matt 1
Michael 1
Ninja 1
Paul 1
Rawn? 1
There's 8 so far and we need a minimum of 10 items to qualify as a group order. As soon as we hit or pass 10 I'll place the order
Here's an brief price comparison:
Timer & Mat via NZ Speedstacks (individual) =~ NZD$57.90 + NZD$10 shipping
*AUD$59.29
Timer & Mat via NZ Speedstacks (group) = NZD$52.90 + free shipping
*AUD$46.19
Timer & Mat via Cube4You (group) =~ USD$40 + $x shipping
*AUD$59.75 + shipping
Anyone else come across better prices?

Hi All,
We've enough to place the order. But first I'd like to confirm a few things before placing the order:
- Do you want a Generate 2 Timer (data port/memory) and full size Mat?
- What's your name if you haven't specified already?
- Would you like to get one from me in person or pay to have it posted to you?
- Are you able to pay? I.e. youngins who might not have a job
Here's the list:
MELBOURNE
Tim McMahon
Matthew Wanstall
Feliks Zemdegs
Xuan Pei
Mingren Lu
Wenliang Cai
Sidney Tarray
SYDNEY
Nicholas Chen

People: 9
Timers & Mats: 10
Total order: NZD$529 ~ AUD$462
I'm a bit concerned about the Sydney orders and the youngins. I don't want to end up with spare timers laying around lol
I'll place it after everyone's confirmed

I'm John Phung, I'd like to have it shipped to me, unless it arrives somewhat close to whenever I'm going to to Melbourne, and I have paypal.

Hi All,
With just 10 items it turns out that shipping will be NZD$52.60 so that's an additional NZD$5.26 (AUD$4.56) for each item. There appears to be only free shipping with larger orders (i.e. $2,000 worth of products).
Timer + Shipping = NZD$34.95 + NZD$5.26 = NZD$40.21 (~AUD$34.86)
Timer & Mat + Shipping = NZD$52.90 + NZD$5.26 = NZD$58.16 (~AUD$50.42)
Please Note:
The shipping here is from NZ to my place and not after distribution.
I'll probably use paypal which may attract slightly higher rates as they typically use a crap conversion (i.e. today 1 USD buys 69 AUD but they probably have it listed as 64).
So depending on the conversion rate you're probably looking at:
Timer ~ AUD$35-37
Timer & Mat ~ AUD$51-55
Is this ok or does anyone want to back out? Please confirm. I'll place the order once everyone is happy.
Kind Regards,
Tim.
