Topic: [GROUP BUY]India Today Magazine, November 29 2021 - CRYPTO MANIA (Read 600 times)

sweet!

Magazines received in good standing.
Will start shipping them out tomorrow

Thank you kindly

@selassiesoildier if you check out the spreadsheet earlier in the thread you will
see who bought in bulk, like 10 or 20 and are in your area, US or EU and they might
be able to sort you!

I think you had to reserve them when he was doing the pre-order. thought someone who ordered more than one might be willing to part with a copy.

Are any available?

Thanks

Here is an update to record that I have received the parcel from @Heisenberg_Hunter today
and strangely enough no import duty was applied to it, all good. I will send PM's to my gang
later this evening.

I’ll be sending payment today. Thank you!

Sorry, but it's already late. Though, 12 books haven't been paid still so will wait for confirmation from them for a day otherwise you can get them 

Regarding orders, here is the final list :



Received confirmation from bitbollo for payment. @blucepheus and @jackbauercsgo let me know if you are willing to pay for all 12 or any reduction in quantities required. If yes, @selassiesoildier can grab some.

I've paid for all the books and received them today in great condition  :


I will start preparing the boxes of 39 to minerjones, 33 to aoluain, 25 to Mitchell and 20 to the Anon now and ship them by tomorrow morning. Will share the invoice of shipment and tracking once I go there 

Is it too late to grab one of these? I can grab one from mj

For US orders, I've a minor workaround to reduce the cost of shipping/book. If I'm able to ship the large orders of 25 books and 20 books separately to their respective locations, the total weight will be reduced to ~10kg around for 39 books and will cost $120 instead of $420. $120/40 will cost shipment charges of $3 per book instead of $5.

P.S will repay the extra $4 which @MoparMiningLLC paid yesterday if this solutions works. Also these are tentative prices and final price might be lower if I go straight to the PO and if I have an exact weight.

EDIT : I will be doing separate shipment for Mitchell and Anon member who contacted me through PM. With this, the shipment of price per book has been reduced to $3 instead of $5 for US members. Here is the updated sheet for payment :



39 books will be shipped to @minerjones, 33 books to @aoluain, 25 to @Mitchell and 20 to anon. Also, received a quote from India Today and paying them by tomorrow for all the 117 books.

Thanks for organising this H_H

In relation to reshipping to @bitdexter @Iced & @Dernoste I will send some PM's
requesting addresses and details for payment.

As I mentioned before there will be a TAX charge on the items received from
Heisenberg_Hunter because he is shipping from outside the E.U, that will be
23%, some E.U countries charge 19% others 25% so its average.
Luckily because the value of the items including shipping costs is under €150
there should not be an EXCISE DUTY charge.

understood - my txn id is 81e9cbc05017b62c5af769de9163e4306066662c3f605b009c7ea8c83a10140e

Yup, even I thought of the same. The above one was my estimate as I used to send small shipments to various parts of world till now and after a surge in interest for group buy I called PO and asked. They asked me to make an estimate through this link : https://www.indiapost.gov.in/VAS/Pages/calculatePostage.aspx

Each book weighs an approximate of 200-250 grams (120 pages). 250*84 books ~ 21 kg approx. For shipping 11 kg, it is ~$120-$150 (final charges might differ based on the location where I ship to in USA, hence posting a rough estimate)...

So $300 approx for shipping 84 books. It's $3.5 for 1 book on an average whereas it's less for shipping to EU. I'm asking an additional $1.5 per book just in case if they are higher. I will share the invoice copy image in this thread and if they are less, I will repay whatever extra I have with me. They are a govt office and they don't accept credit/debit cards, hence I need to pay through cash. So I need to have some additional cash with me before I reach PO.

Just to recheck, I tried ordering Citadel21 mag which ships from US. They charge me a shipping fee of $8/book and hence I came to a conclusion that shipping in the India Post website is approximately correct.

P.S Shipping through private services like DHL and UPS costs $250 for 9 kg whereas 11kg parcel costs only $120-$150 through govt shipments.

why is shipping $5 per book? above you said that 50 books shipped to the US would be ~$30 so how is 84 books going to cost $420 to ship?

Not complaining about the price - just trying to understand.

Hey bitbollo, added you to the USA lot.

With Fattcatt order, the Group Buy is CLOSED as we have reached 100+ books already. Each book approximately weighs around 250 gms and 84 books have been ordered from US and 33 from EU. Hence, the total weight for shipping will be ~ 20-25 kgs for US and ~8-9 kgs for EU. I will be sending in 2-3 lots of 7.5-10 kg each to the US and 1 lot of 8-9 kg to EU as the max shipment is limited to 19kg AFAIK.

Based on Postage Estimates, shipment for each book comes around $5 for US and $2.5 for EU including tracking. You can do the math yourself based on the total books ordered.

If it's lesser when I go straight to the PO, I will repay for each orders. Here is the sheet and total payment details for each user:



If anyone willing to pay through any other popular crypto other than Bitcoin, please PM me for payment address. Once you have paid for your order (which I've mentioned in the sheet), please send your txID so that I can add you to the paid member list!

Once everyone has paid, I will buy the 117 books and ship them to @minerjones and @aoluain for reshipment in their respective countries. If you have any doubt regarding payment, please PM me so that we can sort it out

Update regarding orders : I spoke with India Today Head Office (as this was a large order) regarding shipment to me and they will get me a quote by tomorrow. Once I pay them, shipment should take 3-5 days to reach my destination!

thank you @MoparMiningLLC I have completely missed that post .

OP in any case my order of 3 copies can be delivered to MJ (I have already other items to be reshipped in EU).

I'd like 10 please. Shipping to Minerjones.

*EDIT.....Make that only 5 magazines ... sorry

2 for me please also shipped to mj thank you for offering
I'll send payment once shipping is figured out
