Title: WTB: JSB Predator Polymag .22 cal
Post by: barqy on September 03, 2010, 09:39:57 PM
Hello

Does anyone have any JSB predator polymag .22 cal pellets for sale?

I'm in Canada, so shipping costs are almost the cost of 1 tin from online retailers


I have paypal (verified/confirmed) or can send cash (US dollar)

thank you

Has anyone responded to you?  Are there are no retailers in Canada that sell JSB pellets?  There has to be someone.  I read a few years ago that there is a JSB distributor in Canada.  We pay a lot for shipping in the US too.  You are not alone.
 
Since it seems you got no responses I will post this publicly so other new members may learn something, but this is very common knowledge.

Whether I get 1 tin or 4 tins from Pyramyd Air (4th tin is free), they charge me $9.50-10 for shipping and I am only 2 states away.  You need to order more than 1 tin to make it worth-while.  You also need to use Pyramyd's 10% coupon (code) which is always available at forums.
 
Shipping costs have gone up with both US Postal Service and UPS or Fedex.  I traded 1 tin with another member earlier in the year on the East Coast as me, and it was over $7 to ship with the lowest priority, ground.  So I don't think ~$13 for ship. 1 tin to Canada is that unreasonable.  If you get the 3+1 free at P/A it won't go up that much.  The only problem is Predators are a little hard to find. and P/A is out of them about every other month.

Too bad the free shipping with a $100 purchase doesn't apply to Canada

thanks for the insight

i was hoping someone had a few tins and wouldn't mind selling me just 20-30 pellets just to test out is all

should have made that more clear

I ship to Canada all the time. You can save money and get up to 3 tins shipped to Canada for less than $12.00

He wants to buy a few Predator pellets and have them shipped to Canada to "save on shipping costs"...  So it it's a legitimate post and belongs here no matter how bizzare the request is. 

If there any more comments about shipping costs, etc. the thread will be locked or moved to the non-productive posts section.  I am a little guilty about that myself. 

If anyone has a genuine interest in shipping a few Predator pellets to barqy in Canada you can post, or respond via PM.

thanks
Harry
