looks like email money transfers work well using your online banking account
i dont seem to get charged and neither does the sender so please use this rather than paypal.

good news and bad news!
good news:
They are giving us a good deal on blues and neutral whites which I posted on first page

Bad news:
They will be shipping UPS

So, that means im going to get dinged with a brokerage fee but split between all of us it shouldn't matter too much.

btw feel free to invite your friends to this group buy. Someone extend an invitation to our bcquaria freshwater buddies.

Call UPS and signup with them as your broker and it should reduce the cost. Or find a good broker and notify UPS that way you'll pay less.

Or ship to Hagen's of Blaine.

ok peeps, we need to vote on this delivery stuff
if i go UPS ground and go to Blaine to pickup the package, its going to be about 2% extra of the total charges and we wont get the LEDs until after Christmas Dec 26th.

If i go UPS world wide saver we will get it around the 16-17th and its about 4% extra of the total charges.

Jaws and I would be taking the biggest hit at about $40-50 on each of us if we go the fast route (which I dont mind since i dont have to drive to the US and im still saving a bunch on the LEDs). I can try chatting up the LED lady and see if I can get her to drop the price by 4% but i dont think it will happen.

Fast route cost:
Milad $39.96
Ferret $8.18
ScubaSteve $1.28
Monocus $3.30
Jaws $48.04
elias $16.52
nlreefguy $2.05
mseepman $30.66

Slow route cost:
Milad $19.98
Ferret $4.09
ScubaSteve $0.64
Monocus $1.65
Jaws $24.02
elias $8.26
nlreefguy $1.02
mseepman $15.33
