Just out of plain curiosity. For those of us in the North American (lol, its probably just me) and also those of us in Europe. Do you guys want to organise something as far as keeping shipping costs down. I read somewhere you did that for the keeping place. (which i still do not have:))

Yeah, we've talked about sneding a care package to Britain/Europe, as there are a substatial number of members there, so it'd ultimately keep costs down for them all.
If you know of any other members in the US that want the Sending, then we could do a similar thing for them (maybe 5-6 people?). If it's just you though, you'll probably find it cheaper - and faster - to just order it online with a credit card. I know elspethseeker's from america somewhere, but I don't know of any other american members.

Our dear Elspethseeker is from California. And the lovely Half Empty Teacup resides in Pennsylvania, I believe.
So, that's 3.

i dont have a credit card, i'm 16 and i live in iowa. i dont even have a cell phone!! i'm pretty much in between ES and HET, so you could send them to me and i can send them to those two, i'm getting my summer job back with a raise from 6.50 to 6.75 an hour so i can express them too.

We'll organise something when the Sending has actually been released then. No one knows how much it'll cost, or how much postage will cost anywhere OS. Yet Grunty - if you don't have a credit card, how have you been buying all the other Carmody books online (you indicated the other day that you had bought the whole set?) And yes, sending them to one person would be easier for us, so if you could forward them on when the time comes, that'd be awesome.

Care packages are a fantastic idea and I'll certainly help out if I can. Yay to all our overseas members! It's going to be very annoying for you when we're all reading the Sneding and you don't yet have a copy but I assure you there'll be lots of us who can get together to make you sure you can get copies ASAP

Ah, you need to check at the top of the members message board, there's information there about the sending. Also check out the thread called "letter from Isobelle". I'm not technological enough to know how to post the link here, but send a PM to Elspeth and our web tekkies are bound to help you out if you're lost.
Are you new to Obernet?
