OK CA is $3.75 per lbs. and mag is $2.00 per lbs. We will split the shipping costs . If I am to order this I'm going to insist that all money is in my hand before I order.

So I'm in for 30lbs of Mag
Scott's in for 10 Mag 5 CA
Chad ?
Butters ?

I want to help you guys out.

Get enough poundage and I will ship via a different means and I think I can get shipping costs down a lot.

I would say 100lbs or more should be enough.

Once you guys have a rough idea on the total I will research for you.

:biggrin:

Jason McK
12-28-2006, 05:06 PM
Very cool

So we are at 95lbs now. I'll take 5lbs more of Mag to get us over the 100lbs.
Lets hold off on the total number until Tuesday to ensure everyone who is interested gets in

J

littlesilvermax
12-28-2006, 05:55 PM
OK, how about Wednesday?

I will total things up on Thursday, and get prices all figured out then.



PS: you will likely have to divide the shipping up in a per lb basis. So when I figure out the cost per lb (taxes in) I will let you know.

Will everyone be paying me seperately, or just through one source?




Bonus: Get 175 lbs of stuff and I will give you 6% off.:mrgreen:

Hi Jason, Ben,

I'm very interested in this "alternate shipping" as this might make it a very atractive for me.
If the shipping drops to less than a $0.50 a pound I might take full bag of MgCl (50lb.).

I think for ease to you we will try to make one payment.

I increased the amounts I will take. I edited my first post to save a little confusion I hope.

I know .70 per lb is do-able.

Somebody send me the address it will get shipped to and I will see if .50 is do-able.

12-28-2006, 10:39 PM
OK, I searched and I searched.

DHL, UPS, Fedex, Post-office, Grey-Hound, all around the same.

I tried Reimer express, but they won't do it from me unles I have a business.



I am going skiing in Mar or Feb so if you can wait that long I can take it with me then send it from Fernie BC.

The costs then are .61 per lb




If somebody has a business that can arrange a pick-up from me then maybe we can do something sooner.

To offset I can offer 10% discount (sorry for misleading anybody). If I offer more of a discount then that my net profit is nothing.

littlesilvermax
12-28-2006, 10:40 PM
FWIW the costs on a large order from me right now (from Winnipeg) is .97 cents per lb.

Jason McK
12-28-2006, 11:17 PM
OK Everyone.

CA is $3.75 per lbs.
MG is $2.00 per lbs.

Less 10% for this group
then there will be a $1.00 shipping charge Per pound.

I would like everyone to reconfirm there order now that things are a little more set.

Jason 30lbs MG Total =$84.00

Chad
12-28-2006, 11:49 PM
Ok, so according to the above,

Chad 20lbs MG + 5lbs CA = $77.88

Scott.....20lbs MG + 5lbs CA = $77.88

Scott's post reminded me about kalk.

Caleb 20lbs MG + 5lbs CA + 10lbs Kalk ($2.50/lb w/ 10% off) = $110.38

vanreefer
12-29-2006, 09:01 AM

P.S I am really happy with the Mag

Ben, did you try inquiring with CP railway cargo (i believe it still exists....)? if you are looking at 150-200 lbs range their rates might be more reasonable. If the shipping rate gets lower, I'm in for sure but at this point, I still got lots from last shipment.

Ben
its www.cpr.ca (http://www.cpr.ca)
it looks like they ship rail car's of material and it doesn't look like they ship smaller items but i've sent the following question to their quote department and awaiting a reply:

Do you ship smaller packaged item in the 200 lb range? (do you have a minimum size/weight?)
IF you do ship smaller items, can you quote a price for a box that is about 24x24x24" at about 200 lbs? it will contain a few bags of residential ice melting compound.

I'll let you know what their response is when received.

OK I think we can start talking how we get out money together. there is several ways but I would like to find the easiest and cheepest way for us all.

1.most online banking will do online money transfers. this would be my Ideal method. it is simple and does not cost me anything
2. Pay Pal. If you were to paypal me I would be forced to add a 3% charge to the cost to cover my expenses
3. bring me cash. this is the hardest for all as I don't live in the most central location

Please let me know what is best for you and we can do it.
I will give my e-mail address through PMs when you post here that you will e-mail money transfer

no responses from CPR so I'm assuming they don't do freight. Sorry for keeping you waiting.

To all: I will be moving from Winnipeg to the Greater Vancouver Area come February 15th, and I would like to offer that I can offer free ground shipping from My old house in Winnipeg to my new place. I estimate I will arrive February 18th, and would need a few days to get myself together - but if you would like to do another order after this I would be more than happy to help. I will be contacting LSM myself in the coming 2 weeks to get some in preparation for my new 225 I have been planning for close to a year..

Ben can hopfully answer any further questions.

First load shipped out yesterday, Jason has the tracking number.

It will be a 1 to 2 week wait for the rest, so if yours didn't get shipped I apologize.

If anybody else wants in on the GB they can send funds directly to me and they will still save 10% and have a flat (tax in) ship rate of $1 per lb. I can only do this up until I ship out the last load (unless you personally order like 50+ lbs) as the combined shipping is what saves money. All will be shipped to Jason.

The next GB I will not be packing the chemicals individually, as this is a lot of work for little money, but for this shipment all will be individually packed.

Any questions let me know in this thread or pm me.

Thanks,

Chad

The order finally came in (2 weeks late). I will be picking it up on Thursday or Friday (400 lbs worth of stuff) and unless somebody needs ASAP I will ship it on Monday, c/w tracking info.

So if anbody needs more stuff or anybody else wants in pm me directly and pay me directly. 10% off still applies as does $1 per lb shipping.

After Monday 8AM it will be too late.

Hello Dave, was wondering if your offer still stands?

If so, lets start a new thread for those interested in ordering more Mg, Ca, etc from LittleSilverMax and then picking it up from Dave when he arrives here on the "Best Coast". :)

To all: I will be moving from Winnipeg to the Greater Vancouver Area come February 15th, and I would like to offer that I can offer free ground shipping from My old house in Winnipeg to my new place. I estimate I will arrive February 18th, and would need a few days to get myself together - but if you would like to do another order after this I would be more than happy to help.

Still stands. Going to ask that people put in their order before the 3rd of February and get payment to me shortly thereafter. I'll pick it up from LSM on the 11th or 12th - Will be in BC for the 21st or so or the weekend after that just to give me some time to deal with unpacking. There is also a seperate thread in the same subsection that outlines it..
