Xmas 2014 Group Buy

Waesfjord

Hi folks. My first group but here, just updated the spreadsheet. Just let me know when to pay. :cool:

Cheers!!

adrian522

Any other takers? I'll look to get this ordered on Thursday so if you need to order please do so by the end of Wednesday.

Am I reading/converting this right - €25 for a 250g bag of the Kenyan? this better be good!

adrian522

260 SEK /KG = €28

I presume that would mean the 250g comes to around €7.

At least that's how I read it.

RasTa

Order added to spreadsheet..

Order added thanks for this

As an aside I got the following from coffee collective, may be worth considering for next time though VAT Number may be an issue.

"Hi Adrian,



Thank you for your email. If you can make an order of a total of 10 kilos, and have a VAT number for the invoicing, we’ll be able to sell to you at whole sale prices. We will need payment before shipment, and you should expect the shipment to be around DKK 305.00."

Delivery is about €40 with them.

I can sort you with a VAT number for the next one.

Actually I'll organise the next one, maybe in Jan or Feb?

adrian522

May be a bit soon, but yeah thanks for the offer.

I replied to him asking about the VAT number and to send me the prices but he is out of the office till Monday, be interesting to see what the prices are like.

snollup

I would happily organise this early in the new year. Might help us all to beat the January blues! Hows about I open a spreadsheet on 1st Jan??

adrian522

Finalizing this order tomorrow morning so get the sheet updated today if you want to be included,

If we're going with coffee collective I can give VAT num.

adrian522

Can everyone double check the spreadsheet to ensure it is correct?

Looks like someone may have messed things up slightly with the Costa Rica one, as the top line had 250G (instead of the name of the coffee so want to make sure everyone's is correct..

Yes please!

Mine looks spot on.

I've upped the ante on the formatting to make it easier to read and navigate.

Also, here's the link again so that people don't need to search for it

( Slightly)Bad News on the coffee front

Sorry to let you know that we don’t have Santa Rosa or Biftu Gudina any longer..
But we do have a new Rwandan coffee called Nyungwe Pea Berry. We have this as our Christmas coffee ”Nutcracker” ( 240kr/kg )

Maybe go for this instead?
We don’t have any 750g bags.. Only 250g.

Please let me know asap and I will send you invoice today.. As soon as you send me a receipt for the payment we can send the coffee:)

Are people that ordered Santa Rosa or Biftu Gudina happy to switch to the Rwandan coffee?

Namely: beanian, snollup, CarlLedge, Planet X, krusty_clown, wigsy.

I'll send them PM's now to try and get this moving.

beanian

yeah im happy to switch to that

Hi adrian, would it be too late to come on board this group buy? Are you hoping for all participants to collect in person or any chance of sending on via post (with buyer paying postage of course) ?

Hi, To be honest I'd rather not get into posting things on. Is there anyone you know in Dublin who could collect it?

I've just sent in the order but can amend it if you can arrange someone to collect up here?

RasTa

What beers(if you drink)are you into btw Adrian?

LOL, no need for anything like that, all I'm doing is sending a few emails and I've benefited from many of these group buy's in the past.

adrian522

For what it's worth I received the following reply from Blue Bottle

Thanks for the message.

Sorry it took a little bit to get back to you! I checked in with our special orders department to see if we could do this, and I'm sorry to say that we aren't going to be able to fulfill your oder. We're still just getting our feet wet with international shipping, and so far it has been kind of a bumpy road. Check back in with us next year, we may be able to do it then!

Sorry again we were unable to help out with this.

Where are you located, feel free to pm me.

adrian522

I've received the invoice, it's not quite correct, they need to make 1 small change but I've created a spreadsheet with the prices for each of us. I've calculated the cost of each coffee in SEK and also added in the shipping cost.

I've divided up the shipping cost based on how many bags of coffee you ordered (500g counting as 2 bags).

I've then converted the whole lot into Euro. I've rounded up on the exchange rate a bit as I don't want to get stuck if the rate changes between now and when I pay. (Todays rate is €1 = 8.95 SEK, but I've calculated based on €1 = 8.9 SEK which adds about €4 to the overall order.

Anyway, spreadsheet is here, I'll PM you bank details if thats how the majority want to pay?

Put your username as the comment when you are transferring the cash so I know how has paid.

If you want to pay with Pay Pal let me know.

Thanks Adrian, no worries I guess I missed this one but I'll be keeping an eye on here for the next one if it happens and may get someone to collect in Dublin.

Thanks for the offer quadrifoglio verde, if I take part in a future group buy I may drop you a PM

Back to Filter (Cork city) for me so to purchase my beans before Christmas

Mr Magnolia

Paid, sincere thanks again Adrian!

RasTa

Is everyone not paying the same shipping? ie they send someone a box with 30kgs of coffee?

adrian522

No, Shipping is calculated based on how many bags of coffee you ordered. Works out pretty cheap anyway, only around €33 in total.

RasTa

Ok, cool.
