Hi All, Thanks Nick for the spreadsheet - I guesstimated the postage at about $50 for the bulk order and $20 for the individual units, based off past experience shipping stuff from the US - didn't even think to use the Aus Post calculator.
In other words, I trust your figures over mine :-) For other Aussies, Nick's figures show a cost of $465 for bulk vs $481 for an individual order. Nick, would you mind if I posted your figures on the Group Orders wiki? Chris. On Fri, 16 May 2008 03:59:49 pm nickd wrote: > That's strange.
