I have time.  If you can get enough for a group buy, I can pay up front.

So is this all coming together? Since I only wanted 500, how much money we talking before the shipping price to me? I assume it e=would fit in a medium flat rate priority mail box where the weight wouldn't matter.
Some people think I'm paranoid because I have so many guns. With all my guns, what do I have to be paranoid about?

Sorry guys I have a day time job too.

Looks like we got either 6,700 or 7,700 claimed out of the 8,000 minimum depending on BigBehr.  I was hoping some one would step up and put us over 8,000.

I'll post this over on the 1911 site and see what happens there.  Price would be 17.70 a hundred, 177 a grande etc. plus flat rate USPS shipping, or if I can get a better deal at FedEx.  We'll have time ot sort that out later.  Cheapest USPS flat rate is like $5.50 I think and that would hold a couple hundred I would think.  That would still come out to a few cents over $20/100 which is cheaper than Midway for regular brass.  I always thought the nickel plated was more robust.  I have some that is almost back to all brass after making it through a dozen reloads and short of the rims getting a little dogeared they look fine.

Problem here is what if you go OVER the 8000? Somebody will end up very disappointed.

I can go anywhere between 500 and 1000 if needed to make this go.

There's one more that's kicking the tires over at 1911.com.

Debbie from Starline said in even 100 increments over 8,000 is OK so no one has to worry about getting shorted.

BigBehr: 

Are you in for one or two grand?

OK, Were on.   

I won't order it until I have your cash money in my hands.  I'll place the order on my debit card then, and not before I have all the funds.



The Earl o Sammich

DONE.

I will PM everyone here and on 1911.com with my address.  Read the last post.  I won't place the order until I have every bodies cash deposited in my account and cleared.  I will then place order on my debit card.  I just ordered some 10mm from Midway a few months back so I will try and estimate which USPS Flat rate box you're looking at for shipping.  Actually I'll let you know how many cases fill how many cubic inches and then you can check it out yourself.

I got your PM, but I don't think shipping was included. When the time comes, I can pay for shipping with my USPS account and sent you the shipping label in a PDF file. You would only need to print it out, and glue it on the box. --- Or I can add the cost of shipping now.

Do you take PayPal gift? Money sent as a gift doesn't get anything deducted on your end.

I'm not very PayPal savvy. It might be the way to go though eh?  I could just use my debit to pay them.

As far as shipping goes that sounds like a good idea.  For everybody else I wsa intending to just use the USPS Flat rate boxes.

The Earl o Sammich

There.   I think I got everyone.  If not PM me.

I got 500 rounds of nickel plated in a box 7.5" X 4 & 7/8" X 4 & 7/8" 178.24 cubic inches.

Each one hundred would take up 35.64 cubic inches.  The small flat rate box is 75.33 cubic inches so that would hold two hundred brass.  Cost is $5.80.  Cost go up from there.

Go to the USPS site to figure your cost.  We'll sort that out once the brass is here.

Hey guys I had a couple expenses come up. if my 1000 is going to make or break the deal, I'm in. if its not I might sit this one out. I could really use the brass, but in kinda a tough spot.

Looks like we're still barely "behrly" able to go.  I'll remove your part.

Bigbehr

OK just let me know if that changes ill stand by my word, if we need it to make this a go.
