It took me awhile figuring out exactly how to do that as word 97 is not as simple when it comes to scanning things into a word document, but I did it, and resent out the order, import permit attached. I had thought about doing it before this, but my scanner was not in a cooperative mood, so it did not work.

Just to update folks- sorry, but I have not heard back from Best Carnivorous Plants yet. You must remember they are probably up to their ears in orders right now as this is the hight of the season for them, but they will probably get to us soon. If not soon, I will get on the phone early someday and call all the way to Czechoslovakia myself to find out what's up.

I finally have an answer from Best Carnivorous Plants. to let you all know. I did not include the entire invoice to save space. They are out of Dionaea Cudo, they have no Drosera esmeralde, they have no Dionaea clone Z02 and they don't like to ship spagnum. I have askedhim for his account info and pay pal so he can have his money and we can have our plants. For those who did not ask for particular freebies, I asked him to surprise us.
Here is a proforma invoice. Please notes:
1) Remaining bonus is EUR 41 - please select another free plants. 2) We don´t have D. esmeraldae, D. hybrida as bonus items. 3) We don´t have Dionaea Z02 - we added Z04 which is simillar. 4) We don´t have Dionaea CUDO which is sold out 5) We don´t like ship sphagnum as it is problem to package parcel properly - it may damage plants as pack is heavy.
Please confirm this order so I can ship you my payment details.
Kamil
BCP Order No.: 1000583

I have never conducted a group order before. Well, it may take a bit as part of the money was in Pay Pal, part in my own account, and I do not have a major credit card. About seven business dyas. Sorry for the holdup. For any interested parties, I just transferrred 1,000 Euros!, the grand total for everything, shipping, plants, photosanitary, handling fees, mailing, wiring charges and Pay Pal charges, etc etc. Wow! A lot of money!

Now I address a reality. I was hoping to wire the entire sum mentioned above to Kamil Pasek. However, I spent two days arguing with my bank which insisted it did not have all the information it needed to do that. I had Kamil Paseks bank name, Bank address, account number, swift code, and IBIN number. Kamil was having problem trying to understand what was happening. Thinking it was not fair to him to keep him waiting for money when it was my bank that was the problem, I went the entire amount to him by Pay Pal. Kamil charges a 6% fee for using Pay Pal. I had not allowed for this when figuring what fees and costs were, so I have paid $80.60 from out of my own pocket. I would appreciate it if people could give me some of this back as this is a lot of money to me. Pay Pal is fine. cathy_desmond@rogers.com

After I get my plants I'll be able to spare another 10-15 bucks to help you but unfortunately until then I won’t be able to send money.
