Australia/New Zealand Soft Release Bulk Order

Hey, this is the first post here :)

There seems to be a growing number of members in Connecticut and surrounding areas. I am thinking of placing an order for softies from Tom Abrahamsson's site. He is offering a discounted price of $7 per softie (or mini-softie) for orders of 20 or more pieces. This is a significant discount over the usual $10 (or $15 if you get it through Cameraquest). The price includes shipping.

http://rapidwinder.com/#softrelease shows the original soft release. The mini soft release (for Bessas and others) are shown in Cameraquest.com.

If we can reach a critical mass of 20 pieces, I will email Tom for color availability. To make the savings feasible, the order will be delivered to one place and we can probably arrange a meeting or pickup point somewhere convenient for all interested.

This can probably also be adapted on a larger RFF scale, with necessary re-mailing. Will cut down on your savings, especially if you are only ordering one piece, but may still be worth it.

Any interest?
 
I'm getting one from DAG for $5 along with my CLA, but at only $7 I'd probably pick up another (or two)
 
they're great. I was planning on getting two softies and two minis.
 
Excellent idea Ray. I would take 4 minis and gladly pay for the second shipping to Illinois.

colorwise ~ (if available)
3 titanium
1 black matte

I have to admit to having two. I took them off my cameras at one point, and can't for the life of me figure out where they are.

Count me in for 3, I think I like the mini. Chrome, does that matter, it must.
 
At that price, I'll take two minis. Shipping to Ok is on me, I would guess about $1.00 but if it is more, I'll gladly pay.

Tom's website says he will be away from September 16th unti October 4th...

I saw that. That should be enough time for us to put together an order.

It seems there is some interest internationally. Any suggestions as to how to manage the shipping details and differences in shipping cost?
 
I'm not in "New" or "England", but could you count me in? --- I'd like to order four. Three black one silver; "normal".

Hi Ray,

...I think it's best that people pay their shipping on top of the price of the softies... even to places as far flung as Australia for such a small item USPS is pretty cheap.

By the way Ray I have also sent you a PM.

Cheers!
 
I would like 3 minis, please. I used to think I was in New England but apparently not. Not really mid-Atlantic states either...anyway, if available red or green(I think I saw those on Tom's site?) if not, then black.

maybe if we itemized the order, Tom would send them to the individuals directly?

You always have a way of nudging people in the right direction don't ya Brett ;)

Cheers
