Exoticblanks group buy
Well you asked for it, you got it.
Dawn & Ed over at http://exoticblanks.com have a great selection of stuff we can't get in Australia, and with the Aussie dolalr being so high, now is the perfect time to stock up.
So anyone who is interesting in possibly making some group savings, post your christmas wish list here, and I'll haggle with Dawn for a while and see what she can do for us
As usual, shipping will be the deciding factor, and is unknown till we collate all the info and get a quote, but I'm finding after all fees charges etc are taken into account, with the dollar sitting around 90c exchange rate (remember paypal etc like to exchange a few points lower than the published rate), you're usually looking at a price into Australia of about 20% more than the stated US$ price. Add $6 for a 500g satchel or $10 for a 3kg satchel in Australia to get your final price.
No particular rush on this one while I finish up the bin buy, so have a browse around over the next couple of days and let me know what you fancy.

I don't think so, but I may have a cookie set. Are you going to the right site?

Oh, also, for those who do want to buy stuff, you don't necessarily have to buy a whole pack of an item if that's the way it's sold.
For example, dip pens are sold in 5 packs. If someone wants 3 dip pens, and someone else wants 3, and someone else wants 1, that's fine. We can just order two bags and I'll most probably take up the 3 extras, and then split & separate the packs when they get out here.
Of course if you want 1 of something in a 5 pack, and no one else wants any, you'll either have to take the whole pack, or go without.

great people to deal with. I buy blanks there often.
As an added bonus, you can even go to eroticblanks.com and still get there
They seem to stock several items from other vendors on IAP .. so you can save some
money on shipping. Sort of a " One Stop Shopping" thing.
ALSO .. check out their "Private Reserve" ink cartridges. Much better than the Parker
refills. That refill alone can sell a pen. I believe they're Schmidts but without the name.
I tried them and then replaced all the refills in my cigars.

You might be able to go there, but once you've gone down that road, you can never come back..........

Yes, despite the fact I'm selling Noodlers bottled Inks myself I am going to get some PR catridges, as the "unwashed masses" still fail to see the economy and flexibility of bottled inks over catridges. I wanted to resell the PR cartridges here to compliment the Noodlers stuff, but minimum order quantities gave me heartburn when I originally enquired. So this is a perfect chance to try some. If people only want 1 or 2 to try, I'm open to doing the pack purchases and then sending on just a couple cartridges.
I better put an extension on the dog house though, cause I may end up living in it for a while

I went via your link. I can see the home page, and it starts to load the catalogue page, then goes back to home again. Prolly just as well. I'm broke enough as it is.

Hi TL,
Which browser are you using? If you have more than on on your 'puter, try the other one
The other thing it could be is some sort of wierd cookies issue. Are you blocking them?
Cheers,
