QUOTE(nick_drake @ Apr 22 2006, 10:21 AM) ok this is what aron said If you let me know how much you want, I can invoice you for the total. Aroni said i'll find out how many then. this is his reply. Thanks.
The cost to ship is really more than 80 cents for 2 switches. It hasn't been 80 cents for a couple of years now since USPS raised their rates. In fact, depending on where I ship, I have to take a loss on the shipping but I do it because it would be too painful to have to to constantly calculate shipping based on every single country. The only reason it can be shipped a little cheaper is due to a flat rate mailer.
In almost every case the online shipping guide at usps has been quoting too low.
Let me know if you decide to order.
Thanks,yea.... the shipping is actually priced pretty well..... heck y are this switches so friggin pricey??? cuz their built tuff????

ok. i have emailed aron.
i made a mistake requesting for 4 switches, not 4 PAIRS. nvm that. he still quoted me $28.20, which is the original price at the website including shipping.
this is kinda confusing, as if u refered to my earlier postings of aron's replies, he says shipment is $5 or something, depending on how much he can fit it.
----------------------------------- Money Request Details -----------------------------------
Amount: $28.20 USD
Note: Hi Ben, <BR> <BR>Note that this is sent first class delivery - no insurance or tracking. It has been reliable in the past for me. It is sent USPS to your country then your local carrier takes it from there. <BR> <BR>Aron
so, i have just sent him another reply, this time requesting for 8 switches, and the total that has to be deposited to his paypal.

Ah well LOL. we'll wait.
technically if its USD5 for the shipment of all 8 switches, you would save USD2.40 if you were to count it as 4X1.60USD (if we were to order individually). So that means technically we save RM2.22 each person LOL. Hmm, i wonder if thats worth the hassle of passing out the switches to everyone.

Oooo... then the logistics sound perfect haha. We'll see his invoice soon. If he still charges 1.60 per pair, I'll just pay the bulk price, you guys pay me, and ask him to send to our individual homes. if he charges less, then we'll just send to one of us.

hmm...we pay the bulk price...and he delivers to our seperate homes....i wonder if that is possible. should be , cause USPS drops it here for our local carrier. surprising and quite..unbelieveable, how our $1.60 can go so far. this is so confusing. one minute its not $1.60, the next it is.

dammit. he hasnt replied. i think he has gotten sick of me. let's just send in a bulk order of 8. if the delivery is $5 , its still alright. and if we pay whatever is stated on the paypal invoice. that way we wont go wrong.
everyone with me here? or something else?
