I have a reply about extra prices. All prices would be in EUR.
Shipping here and transfer fees here will be divided. Shipping to you would also be on top of this.
Just cause of the distance, I imagine 1st priority post would be best, any other opinions??
I'll keep everyone updated with the process. For those curious, the order will probably be put in a week or two after I get my import permit. Estimated date if everything goes well would be mid-April for placing the order.

Hi prmills,
I've done several orders with CZ Plants. I always use EMS Express. I've had parcels shipped out on Tuesday, arrive three days later on a Friday, which was the fastest plants have ever arrived. That's the best case scenario, but for what it's worth, that's the shipping option I prefer.

If shipping can be that fast with EMS express, then I think that will work. Thanks for the info/help I think there are about 10 of us interested right now Everyone will be welcome

To my surprise, the government worked faster than I had anticipated! I now possess the much needed permit for this and have the green light If your interested in joining the order start pm'ing me your lists. I was thinking we could put the order in the end of March, unless that does not work with everyone. Let me know.

That works perfectly for me. I just forked out nearly $1000 for a baseball bat and glove for my daughter, so the ol' bank account needs a bit of time to recharge itself.

Hmmm would you pay for the plants yourself, and then when they arrive get repayed, or how would the payment work?

Oh! I have a question as well, when they arrive at your place, you're going to send them to our places from there, so would we pay you for the shipping from your place to our place after the fact? I mean I guess there might be a way to sort of estimate how much it will cost... I'm assuming you'll want the money before we order, because it's going to be a pretty pricey order from what I understand, so would we pay for the second shipping fee separately? Sorry, I hope that makes sense. The reason why I ask is... I have a paypal account, but it's linked to my debit card since I don't have a credit card. Transfers are not instant, so I was going to transfer the money to my paypal account, and then transfer it to you so it's instant for you (it takes like 10 days). If I could know the total beforehand and all that, I wouldn't have to make you wait 10 days for payment haha, I feel terrible doing that. Anyway.. I hope this garble that I just wrote makes sense... And THANKS for organizing this!

K....I use paypal as well. You can instantly send people money. Your account needs to be verified and it probably depends on the bank service you use. But my paypal allows me to send the money right away and then in 10 days it deducts it from my bank account. See if you can get that working that way. Just go to send money and send the person money. It should say somehting like instant checkout or something.

If you could send the money up front, it would be the best for me. I can handle a few late payers if you need to. I'll do my best to help figure out the final cost of everything before payment needs to be done. For the cost of getting the plants, you'd be responsable for the price of the plants and shipping to you. The costs for shipping to Canada, the phyto docs, and transfer fees will be divided up between everyone who orders. If you have more questions, ask away

vraev: It won't let me do that because my address is not verified (for some reason). But I can try it. prmills: Is there a way that I can pay the shipping fee when you send it to me? Like, I don't know if you can do this... but so that when I get the package I pay for the postage to the post office? I don't really know if you can do that... I know at least that I can pay you before the order for: the plants and my fraction of the phyto/shipping to Canada... If I had to send you the shipping from your place to my place a bit slower, would that be alright? But maybe I'm not understanding something! All the plants are being shipping to your place first, correct? And then you're sending them all out to use individually...? Haha... sorry. But that's how I'm thinking about it? Anyway, I'll try to get that instant transfer thing working...

Let me know your estimated up front cost for my share and I'll forward a cheque. Then when you find out there were additional expenses let me know my share and I'll forward a cheque for the balance. These things happen.

Tael - You got it The plants will come to me and I'll ship them out to everyone. I can ship with you paying for it when you pick up, but it looks like there would be a $7 added charge for it. If you wanted to pay for the shipping to you after, that's fine with me. Brain - When I know, I'll let you know and send you my address. Lets go with orders in by March 29th. The following week I'll be able to get final prices for everyone and our plants coming Also, if you have a preference on how you want your plants mailed to you (ie: Priority, Xpresspost or Regular) let me know. If not specified, I'll send them out Xpresspost (3 business days).

prmills: Alright, thanks! I'm just finalizing my list of plants, I just sent the site a question about one of the plants I wanted to get, hopefully they'll respond soon. As soon as I'm ready I'll PM my list of plants and we'll work out the first total, and I'll get that money transferring. Thanks!
