I would like to wait, still $48 dollar is still money...

However, I'll go with majority decision and agree to use Fedex. :wink:

All seat covers posted via slow ship in a bulk together. This takes a long time. 3 weeks. Also it has to be cleared of customs and delivered to my address by the customs broker. So add another week.
Then I normally send all the covers to individual buyers (via COD) one by one. Postage takes up to 1 week.
So, all up, we are looking at 5 weeks.
COD cost average $20 to each buyer, depands on the location it could be more.

Now, we are all paying additional $48, in reality $28 only, as everybody has to pay for the postage around $20 (COD) anyways.

So, we are paying $28 to receive the covers at least 4 weeks earlier.

I do agree money is money, however, I see this as an opportunity rather then waste.

Guys,

I think we have a definate group agreement with a big majority is positive towards the FedEx, non against, and two people that we havent heard from.

Production is to finilise today as far as I know, and quality check coming after.

So, can I please ask everyone to send the latest postal details (Full name, full address, and postcode) and forward $48 to my previous account details.

NZ buyers no need to send any additional funds, but address details.

Sorry I have a little question, isnt' that package will send with COD. Which we pay for Fedex when we pick it up? Wouldn't that be double charge $48. Sorry I've never use/receive Fedex before, please correct me if I'm wrong :)

fto22,
You only need to forward me a $48, this will secure a FedEx airmail postage for you.
There are no other postage cost.
