Hey international members!

I'm hosting a group buy for any of you people out there that are interested in the Finding Nemo EMPTY Metal Box.

Cost will be $10.50 each to cover shipping from Best Buy.com, Sales Tax, group buy fees....and bubble wrap and other packaging.

LIMIT of 2 copies per member.


I will not be able to combine shipment with the Brave gb.

Only mint / new copies will be passed on to members here.

Additionally - these pre-sell gifts usually come wrapped in cardboard slips. I'll do my best to inspect them, but I cannot see underneath the cardboard.

PLEASE NOTE: I would like to ask that you make sure you do NOT have to fulfill YOUR request from ANOTHER group buy on this forum.

Please make sure you can drop from that group buy BEFORE posting here.


Shipping options:

QUOTES are for 1 EMPTY CASE ONLY. If you want more than one, individual quote will be required.

I will pack in the following manner - case will be bubble wrapped, cardboard added around it. Extra padding will be added if a box is chosen.

Please note - with non-trackable shipping - you the buyer understand that I cannot verify it's delivery - as I leave the choice up to you, this is not my responsibility. Insurance can be purchased through a 3rd party if desired.

I will retain proof of shipping for each package.

I hope the Topsham store has more than 10, because that's where I am headed right now. Just kidding Andy.
 
Yeah this looks like ten per store, and they are definatelty trying to stop the Ebayers, with this title.
 
When do you require payment for these and the Brave steelbooks?

Brave will be invoiced shortly, as they should be arriving by the end of the week - so around then.

Since my store did not have many copies of Nemo, I'm forced to order them in another manner. As such, we have to wait until beginning of December for those.

is it possible to order 1 case with B shipping to France ?
thx

Sure.

Hi Andy, if possible 2 copy for me [ITALY]
thank you.

1 case only Dom - I'm pretty sure it's gonna be very hard to get 2x.

FYI - note to other members, I will be closing this list in another day or so.
 
Update - these are shipping soon from Best Buy.

I believe I have ordered enough for everyone to have 2x copies. Because of the way I had to do this, I'm waiting for these to be in hand and to inspect them before I can confirm that.

I wasn't sure I could get 2x copies, so this might be some good news.

Keep track of this thread for further updates.

Thank you.
 
So I have some good news and some bad news.

The good news is that the Finding Nemo cases have arrived.

The bad news is that many of them arrived damaged. :(

I have 44 mint copies in hand. What this means is that everyone that requested a copy will get one. However, not everyone that requested 2x copies can get 2x copies.

Here are the options.

1) You can elect to wait for me to ship your case - as I have a few more on order from Best Buy. They state these are on backorder - but they could be cancelled, I don't know for sure. I might have something free to give you if you choose this option.

2) You can volunteer to only accept 1 case of Nemo. The first 3 people to do this will have the opportunity to purchase a copy of the Brave MB to combine with their Nemo copy.

3) I can pick members at random to only receive 1 copy.

Once I have five people that decide on one of the three alternatives above, I can begin to invoice the remaining members for payment.

Thank you.
