Matt, hope you don't mind me asking, for my order of the 4 tweeters, and shipping rate of USD21.57, what would be the method of shipping? Hope it's registered, coz our postal system seems to lose items once in awhile.

For that rate, it would US Postal Service Priority Mail International. The USPS web site says that delivery is 6-10 days and includes "Tracking to major destinations". They do not specify what qualifies as a "major destination".

There are two higher level services available:

Express Mail International - 6 days - $35.88
Global Express Guaranteed - 1 to 3 days - $79.92

The full and nearly-full boxes are easier to pack, so I'm doing those first. Once again, unless some of the above fail to pay, all the tweeters are sold - there are no more available.

Hi Matt,

I can't seem to PM you since my username is still under moderation as I have only had few posts.

I would like to buy 6 tweeters if any others have pulled out. Shipping can be lumped together with a friend of mine, Shehzad, whom also bought some from you.

Let me know or please email me if you can.

Many thanks.

Update -

Several people have asked to increase their current order if any of the people who have not yet paid back out. So I will hold on further shipments until Thursday.

happy.gringo and neutron7 - You will need to get payment to me by Thursday, September 20th, or your orders will be canceled and your tweeters will get sent to someone else!

Landoctor - your payment is showing as "uncleared" in PayPal. As soon as it clears, your full box will ship.

Sorry for the delay, but I want to be fair to both those who have not yet paid, and those who want to get those unclaimed tweeters without paying double shipping.

Is there any information available for how these tweeters were being used by the original owner? What type of speaker were they used in or intended for?

Ed -

Not a clue. I found them in the original manufacturer's boxes. There are no markings of any kind on the boxes or the tweeters. The only way I knew what they were was four additional tweeters in the lot that had Vifa labels attached to the back. It looks like those four might have been samples that went with the rest. It is not uncommon for OEM products to bear no markings of any kind.

There are 16 tweeters not yet sold, but I am pretty sure they have already been claimed. I'll be gone for the weekend, but when I return, I will sort through the emails and forum postings to see who gets the extra tweeters on a first-come, first-served basis. Shipments should resume Monday or Tuesday.
