Ed S Posted June 2, 2005 Report Posted June 2, 2005 From $8 to $5. Just got the new catalog with the Slack and Richards Selects. Looks like they're finally realizing that the old shipping cost was not competitive. Quote
tranemonk Posted June 2, 2005 Report Posted June 2, 2005 for those of us who haven't got the catalog yet....Anything else in there we should know about? Quote
andybleaden Posted June 2, 2005 Report Posted June 2, 2005 No changes made on international rates! ← ← Now that does annoy me One of the boens with the seclts for me was the shipping was a bit steep for the box sets as they are less to post that the old sets Not impressed with that Did not mind the price for big sets but for these...bit naughty really Quote
ASNL77 Posted June 2, 2005 Report Posted June 2, 2005 (edited) Last time I ordered two big boxes, I had to pay for custom taxes when I received them! With the shipping costs being so high for overseas customers, I feel they could make a bit of an effort for those who live in the 'old' Europe and elsewhere. Edited June 2, 2005 by ASNL77 Quote
brownie Posted June 2, 2005 Report Posted June 2, 2005 And the Euro is on the way down against the US dollar. Already lost about ten percent in the past few weeks and this should just be the start of a further downfall. I blame France and the Netherlands for this Quote

I blame France and the Netherlands for this ← The Euro's fall is good for Europe, though -- it makes European exporters more competitive. It could help yank Germany and the other stagnant European economies out of their economic slump. Guy Quote

sidewinder Posted June 2, 2005 Report Posted June 2, 2005 (edited) I blame France and the Netherlands for this Yes, I'll blame them too for shafting me with a surcharge on my future Dusty Groove and Mosaic orders! I was just getting to enjoy £1 = $1.9 Edited June 2, 2005 by sidewinder Quote

I blame France and the Netherlands for this ← No offense but we in the US have been getting hit hard with the exchange rates so I'm not upset to see the Euro take a hit. For those going to Europe, we'll get more bang for the buck, so to speak. Quote
J.A.W. Posted June 2, 2005 Report Posted June 2, 2005 Well, the euro was on the rise again today after yesterday's 8-months low, though not by much. Quote
Brad Posted June 2, 2005 Report Posted June 2, 2005 Well, the euro was on the rise again today after yesterday's 8-months low, though not by much. ← Well, what can you do. My point was let's not lament about it when we have been suffering from a bad exchange rate for awhile. Quote

Uncle Skid Posted June 7, 2005 Report Posted June 7, 2005 Purchase Value Shipping by Surface [6-10 weeks] ← I'd cry like a little girl if I had to wait 6-10 weeks for a Mosaic order! I guess we're a little spoiled here, used to 1-2 days with DHL. Quote
Alfred Posted June 7, 2005 Report Posted June 7, 2005 They reduced airmail too: Airborne Express or US Air Mail [1-3 weeks] Up to $40: $12 Quote

The lack of shipping options (ground, 2nd day, UPS/FedEx, etc) is sometimes aggravating, but who I am kidding -- when I place an order, I WANT IT NOW!!! Quote
