Anyone want to chip in to get cards at a cheaper rate? - If we have enough people to get 100 packs from the UK, we can get them for about $9 £2.83 each: link to buy 100 packs

The normal price for 12 packs would be nearly $18 each (with international post) so that's about half price! ridiculously cheap!
I don't mind coordinating the delivery, so there would be another £4 (or thereabouts) to cover postage within the UK. It looks like the delivery will miss Xmas this year, but you could be very early for next year! I probably would want about 12 packs, but reply to this thread or pm me with how many you want, and we'll see if we can get some to spread permaculture in the UK.


(edited to change link and add revised price and comparison)

OOh! I've signed up to the Permies affiliate program - and this weekend only I can get us 80% off the cost of the cards (not including postage though) This would bring the total price for a pack of cards to just £2.23 * $2.81 pus postage within the UK.

Anyone who lets me know that they want some before the end of Sunday 26th November today: I can pass the full discount on if we get enough people together.

More info about the cards on the lovely gardener's gift site here

I will need a stooge to actually buy them so we get the discount, but I don't mind sending the money over - I'm sure we can work it out!

Surely there are other UK Permies who would love some of these cards! I've been drooling after them since I first saw them and always discounted getting them because of the international postage, but this is such a sweet deal don't let's miss it!
pm me or reply to this thread if you're interested!




*depending on conversion rate at time of purchase.

I've got a few people interested but still need some more....

and a correction to the price - they will a bit more than I'd thought - due to card fees on foreign currency, and the affiliate fee only applies to the cards not the postage of course!
As best I can tell the price would actually be about £2.83 a pack (plus UK postage) - still a really good deal if we can swing it!

Let me know ASAP if you want in - the deal is only till the end of tomorrow (Monday)

Last chance to be in!

I'll consider posting in Europe at cost - that would be about £8 for one deck, £10 for 4, £12 for 10 decks.

I still need a couple more to go for it! less than £3 a pack.

It's looking like a no go at the moment - anyone want to come in at the last minute and make my day?

Last chance for using my affiliate fee to get a super deal on the permaculture cards!

pm me or reply to this thread if you want to chip in.

OK, I'll call it a day there. Sorry we didn't make it :(

I'll see what the affiliate cut goes back to after tonight, and let you all know what the higher price is likely to be then - likely about £4.80 a pack I'm afraid.

Thanks to all of you that expressed an interest. I'll get back to you individually tomorrow (bedtime now).
 
I agree. Here's the link: http://stoves2.com
