Skoda / Czech style number plate surrounds

devonutopia · 07-01-2007, 22:13

Brown paper is very cheap on Ebay I've found. I bought about 40 square metres of the stuff last time around and I'm not even close to using it up.

Bubble I usually just keep and recycle from packaging I buy stuff in. But to buy, it will probably be cheaper than lots of large jiffy bags. Brown tape is fairly cheap too, and I've found it useful to get one of those cheap and nasty tape dispensers with the blade on it.

You can always pinch a bit from between the layers of bananas in the supermarket!

Put my other one on at the front and I actually quite like it now.

And now for the good news... I have ordered 50 of the buggers, after I received a price that was bearable by the credit card. Am expecting delivery sometime in the next week or two. Until then you are free to admire mine and add your name to the list, as you will have the 1st refusal to the 50 available. First come, first served

The price works out as follows:

* Surround (per item): £9.50
* Packaging&Handling (per order): £0.50
* Postage (per order): At cost. I am awaiting delivery of my packaging materials at the moment and then I'll be able to give an accurate price for this. Collection is of course also possible.
* Paypal fee (only to be added if paying by paypal): At cost. Once I know the cost of postage I will be able to calculate this too.

Any more questions? Let me know!

So £10 + post. Sounds ideal. I would imagine two will be around £1, as I don't think the package will qualify for the smaller envelope (thinner than 25mm), in which case it is £1 minumum. Then it depends on weight. I think it's £1 right up to 100g

0-100g 100p
101-250g 127p
251-500g 170p
501-750g 220p
751-1000g 270p
1001-1250g 474p

Quinten · 10-01-2007, 14:58

The new postage prices have thoroughly confused me, so I'm not even going to try and estimate what the postage is. It will be somewhere between £1-£1.70 I imagine if the above are the weights associated with the size of the package.
