I would like to coordinate a group buy for the Mad About Sound microphone preamp PCB. Shipping to the USA is 16.00 (UK$) which comes to about $26 (US dollars); group buy is intended to spread the shipping expense over several people.
Vikash has kindly reduced the price per mic PCB to 2.80 (UK$) for DIYAudio members.
Ten orders: ( 16.00 + 10*2.80 )*exchange rate (1.61 dollars/pound) comes to $70.84.
Individual PCBs would be shipped by me for $7.08 + shipping to USA address.
Any takers?

Mad About Sound Order
At this point I have interest from four parties (including myself), which accounts for 8 mic preamp PCBs.
If there is no more interest over the weekend, I will place an order for 10 (=8+2 extra) PCBs on Monday morning. I will pay for 100% of it and will figure out "distribution" later.
If there is more interest over the weekend I will also include you in the order.
Thanks!

Hi BarryV,
can you ship 2 downunder?
Thanks, sp
I'll look into shipping costs ... you think it'll be cost effective?

Hi BarryV,
it should as I have found UK post to be fairly expensive and unreliable but US post to be cheap and quick.
For example I recently got 3 x B1 pcb sent in a padded bag for US$3.96 postage.
In any case I don't want you to be out of pocket or wasting time over a small transaction.
Thanks,

According to Vikash at Mad About Sound, I should be expecting the boards any day now (1/26 -> 1/27). I am still awaiting shipping addresses from some of you (you have received a PM from me).
Total cost to me thus far has been $82 US for 12 boards; $82 = (16+12*2.80)*1.65 dollars/pound. This comes to $6.83 US per board, or $13.67 US per order (everyone ordered 2).
I am thinking that the cheapest way to ship these to US addresses is USPS First Class. This precludes tracking info (as far as I can tell), and will cost in the neighborhood of $1.00.
Thus, initial cost estimate for USA shipments will be:
- $15.42 ( = $13.67 + $1 shipping + Paypal fee ); Paypal is 2.9% + $0.30
Is this shipping method sufficient?
For Australia, the cost will be a little higher ... maybe ~$4 ... I'll have to find out when I go to Post Office.
