Hi Anthony,

When are you thinking of closing this GB? Also,
what are the numbers looking like?

Thanks,
Dennis

Hello Dennis, I would like to close it out within the next two weeks.

So far 20 x 12" and 28 x 6"

So it looks like we will be at the 25 Piece Pricing.
6" 35.50
12" 63.64

Some members have indicated they may be in for more but this is all I have comittments for at this time.

I am hoping I will be able to pay just one setup fee of $50 instead of two, not sure yet. Canadian Members will have to pay the tax, not sure if I can arrange seperate shipping within Canada from R-Theta for provincial tax savings. I am still hoping I can have R-Theta ship to a US member for redistribution to avoid US members having to pay Canadian taxes.

The 9012 is quite nice peice of kit in the 6" length. Here is a thermal plot of three devices dissapating 24 watts each and the junction temperature is only 135 Deg. Fahrenheit.

I have confirmation from R-Theta that they will ship a consolidated shipment to a US address.

So I guess the question is who would like to take care of redistributing to US members. It would need to be someone who has easy access to the post office, can drive and lift rather heavy packages as these things wiegh 17 pounds per foot.

At this time there are only a couple of US Members on board.

A Wiki would be nice, but I suck at that sort of thing. I tried to create one and got stuck on the directions after it said "How to create a wiki with eNABLe" or some equally baffling verbage!!!

Thank you Argo,

I have updated the wiki with all the commitments I have so far, please log onto the wiki and check if I have them recorded correctly.

Please feel free to add any additional requirements, or if you are following the thread and have not committed as yet now is a good time to do so.

I will be able to place the order after the 12" sections get to 25. When we get there I will collect the funds and place the orders.

Ok if you have not sent me your mailing address, please do so right away. I am going to look at the US addresses and see if I can get a consolidated East and West coast (sort of) shipment out of R-Theta. This will take a little pressure off of niner and may reduce shipping costs a little more.

I have started posting Canadian shipping costs for those who have provided addresses.

Please remember the 13% taxes, sorry not my fault. Tomorrow I will add a column to the wiki to show the taxes.

niner have you got ground level access to receive the US shipment? Perhaps a Garage to bring them into?

The Profile we are ordering has a published weight of 12 Pounds per foot, I am trying to verify that.

If this is the case then the shipment to niner will be 360 pounds. I have asked R-Theta to quote the shipment cost.

From where niner is to a few sample addresses in Texas and Florida the USPS.COM site indicates a cost of $20 to $35 US depending on shipment size. The average shipment size for the US orders varies but a simple calculation shows between 12 and 48 pounds.

Once I have got a shipping quote back from R-Theta and received all the Mailing addresses I can post all the rates from niner within the US using www.USPS.com.
