Pretty sure most freight forwarders won't ship enough glasses just for display purposes. Pretty sure you'd need to buy *cough* in bulk *cough cough*. I could help you bulk up your buy Jesse *cough cough cough*

Never used them myself but have heard they are pretty cheap and reliable.

Yob

you're ordering glassware and its not a group buy? whats going on in this crazy world

 

[Yob]

Pretty sure if I do a bulk buy atm I'll lose certain things I'm rather attached to...

Pick-up may be different story but I certainly don't have time to package and post

Hey Yob,

Had a quick look through this one and it seems Price USA might be a good option? Recommend to have a read too though...

Cheers,
Idzy

How much are we talking? Swmbo works for a freight forwarder but she normally deals in container loads.

I have used hopshopgo before but they aren't that cheap..

 

[Camo6]

Container load? Now your talking Yob's language.

Teku would be nice

Not cheap, but cheaper than some others. We are looking at trying to buy a cold plate and weighing in at 15kg it is a pricey item to ship, but this mob seems to calculate out at a reasonable price.

Just get divorced

Then you can do as many bilk buys as you like, whenever you like. These things are important in life you know B)

 

[Yob]

Yes.. But then I won't have a house to put my shiny glasses in..

Could always organise a house bulk buy.

Way back when the exchange rate was better than "dollar for dollar" I used PriceUSA to purchase and ship a M311 STIHL Chain Saw. Process was simple and straight forward with I think a charge of $0.03 in the dollar to cover their costs

I would use them again if/when the situation arises
