Anyone want to split an order from keyscritters (clean-up) NW Indiana

[homebrewdude]

This isn't going to be much of a group order.

I have 220 of each snail type.
Thats it.

It doesn't really matter what is left.
It looks like we buy in lots of 50

How many do you want?

if cost still around 39 cents a critter, i can go for 100, somthing like 50 snails and 50 bluelegs

just trying not to spend more than 50 or so dollars

 

[homebrewdude]

I just sent this e-mail. I cannot find the phone number on the website.
Otherwise I would have called. I think we need to round to even 50 numbers, but I sent it as it is.



We are looking into a group order
So far we have the following, but have additional items we would like to add if they are included in the shipping:

Astereas Lg Ceriths Blue Leg
220 270 100

If there is a minimum qty of each type, we can round up.
How does the cost structure work?

Can we also include some of the following in the shipping cost? (is there a min order or each?)

Brittle Star or Serpent Star
Sally Crab
Emerald Crab

I got a quick and crappy response

Pete, good evening

I have no idea what you mean by included in the shipping cost. FedEx charges by the size and weight of the package. We have no way of knowing what your shipping will be until we know the total order.

The qualifications for group/club orders are on our website:

Thank you

It says that we need a $500 order to qualify for a group order. Since we aren't close to that maybe we should just make out own orders. Or we can get a WOW special and a package #6 that is about as close as we can get to what everybody wants with free shipping.

 

[homebrewdude]

Those prices include shipping twice.

I am leaning towards going elsewhere.

Apparently our order was not big enough for them to deal with.

I recently bought from http://sealifeflorida.com
Great to deal with, items were great. Mushrooms and Ricordia
We can also buy different types of stuff to take advantage of the same shipping.
I sent the same e-mail to him, waiting for his reply

 

[homebrewdude]

Keyscritters would be about $.44 per critter

Sealifeflordia would be about $.58 per critter (waiting for e-mail)

http://www.reeftopia.com about .40 per critter (Cerith are high)
free shipping over $120

No the packages do not include "shipping twice".

Pete, you are asking for a quote on shipping. We need to at least know about what the order will be (size and weight), and most important, where it will be shipped to.

You have not sent the shipping address.

We tried to explain. Bulk inverts are packed dry. Starfish, cucumbers, emerald and sally crabs are packed wet. Depending on how many you order, you could add a lot of weight to the package. Two crabs will not add much weight, 50 will add a lot. You have given us no indication of how many you want in the order.

Without knowing what the order is, not having a shipping address, we can not give you an estimate on shipping charges.

We get a large discount from Fedex. We only charge exactly what Fedex charges us.

Your price break down, in the quantities you have, for club orders is:
Astrea $.29 ea
Lg cerith $.36 ea
blueleg $.22 ea
