Update 11/11/08

I received a nicer quote today. It's a go!

How does $18 shipped (in the US) sound?

$15 per calendar plus shipping.

I went from New York to California. Shipping if 13oz was roughly 3 bucks.

If it is over 1 pound, it jumps to $4.80

Does that sound good price wise? Does it seem fair?

Hey Chris:
FWIW the PO used to offer a "media" (aka "Book") rate, which was a bit slower, but a lot cheaper....

I was up at Mars the other day ... and yes you can get it shipped up. Well technically picked up. You have to go to your local Martian Post Office and tell them you request a sample for documentation (if you say sample you don't get charged for duty charges) from earth. If you tell them that you could possibly invade earth sooner they'll get it shipped out express for free! Just helping a fellow rotor head from another planet ... just try to not ruin my car if you invade us.

On another note if you're worried about getting caught then you chould ship it the slow way, tell him have the package shipped out to:

"Your Name"
USA space shuttle # 439
Moon Sortation Plant
Destination Mars
Galaxy #1

I've had them loose stuff in wormholes before though ... so i don't really recommend them

Will the calendar be shipped first to the folks here in the continental US, or will the inter-galactic orders go out in the initial batch.

out of curiousity ... will those lines be on the actual calender? I don't think that the inside ones flow that well (ie the ones around the pictures and the name) it just makes it look too busy ... follow the K.I.S.S rule

No, none of those lines will be on there. Not the pink, blue nor black. If you downloaded the PDF file, it will be printed like that for the most part.

I changed my mind due to a member suggestion; member location. This will be below the car owners name.

Also, Justin, I will be in contact with him ASAP. Thank you very much!

Update 11/19/08

All information is ready. I will be contacting my printer tomorrow morning. I will have him review the file and layout and make sure everything is set.

Lets start a tally of who wants some!

Lets recap on price;

$15 per calendar.
$18 for one calendar shipped to US.
$15 per calendar PLUS shipping if more than one.
$15 per calendar PLUS shipping if out of USA

I will work out deals for those who are buying a few (maybe 5 or more? I am a nice guy, just contact me)

Put down your NAME, USERNAME, QUANTITY and LOCATION if you are interested!

1. Rich (64mgb) - 10 - USA
2. Mike (Team Gooch) - 10 - Canada
3. Aaron (notveryhappyjack) - 1 - USA
4. Mark (WAS:21A) - 5 - Australia
5.
