Hi guys.. Well as you know, I've been wanting a gaming headset. and after reading all the reviews and such. I decided to go for the Astro A40's with mixer (and im making myself a custom tag for them (waste of $25 but meh!).. Aaaaanyway, My problem is. the website wants $75 to ship them to my postcode, in Australia. However, they say they have free shipping to persons in Continental US (whatever that means?). http://www.astrogaming.com/products/det ... io-System/ Thats the website, the pair. I will be getting the rechargabe battery, but ordering my own custom tags not those MLG ones... Does anyone live in Continental US? If you do, could you add those to your cart and see what the shipping is. If its nothing, or less than $75 please let me know... AND, then, can you help me work out how much it would cost YOU to send it to me. Because, I know I can get it cheaper. I've had stuff from further away, that weighs more and it was cheaper! I'm trying to save moolah. All help appreciated ^_^ (The problem would be... Do I trust you enough with my $300 headphones.. so not everyone will be eligible to help me. Unless you've got your own $300 to buy them with, and have me repay you /sell via ebay so i can claim a paypal insurance.)
Shipping Charge: + $145.08 Don't quite think I can help The reason shipping charge is so high is that it'll be insured and signed for upon your collection. If they arrve in america, then person X posts and they get lost, You get no refund/no reassurance. Posting from america to aussie will be like $40 at least I'd say. I'd pay the extra just to be 100% safe. If its too much, look for a lower model.
I'm getting that model no matter what.. Was just trying to save on some shipping. Not to mention, it appears they won't ship the customs tags... Weird. So I'll need someone to get the tags for me.. Which shouldn't be too hard. Anyway... This is the two shipping choices it gives me. Does anyone know what the difference between the two is?
Oh and does anyone understand what the TOSlink cable is for?? Will I eventually need one (They're cheaper on ebay/local shops than off the site )
PS:Its the spam corner, no rules PPS: When you fail to use it, everytime has been outside the spam corner. i've just been too lazy to warn you
Because I can't find any "quality" pairs in Aus... And to Denied > Like SoC Said.. Spam Corner.. You can double post ^_^
Why can't you use one of those mail forwarding companies? Like shipito.com only not because I've heard negative review about it...but yeah, there are site that do this kinda stuff for you.
Because they DO ship the headphones.. Just not my custom tag >_> (might just contact them about that ) Aaanyway, I did think about one of those side companies.. Just not a fan of it.

Geography Fact for Junior: Continental US means all states excluding Hawaii and Alaska.. everything that's landlocked between Canada and Mexico lol. And I'll either PM you or edit this post when I figure out how much it would cost me to do it for you EDIT: Depending on how big of a box it ends up being, it would probably cost about $45 or $55 ish
^^^ditto. Junior, shipping's free to me. Where to in Australia? If you want me to do it, I'd need you to put the money in my paypal before I bought them, because even if it gets reimbursed, I'll get slaughtered if $300 shows up on my debit -_-
Postcode for Australia = 5114 I can get the box size if you'd like.. But in all honesty if tis only going to save me $30... Is there really any point? Saves stuffing you guys around! I do thakn you all very much for offering to help/provide good answers. And John.. WTF?
Yeah, it'd be $43.25 to ship from here :/ If you want me to I'd be more than happy to, but it'd take another week or so to get to you, in total.
Hrrrm sounds good Phee. I've just contacted the website to get an exact cost to get everything I wanted shipped.. If they are too much more expensive, I might use your service Phee. However, I don't have the money for two weeks anyway (had to buy a new transponder key for my car.. $250 later ).. I will PM you/post here then to see if you're still willing to offer it. Thanks to everyone. All got +rep (except Phee.. I've got to wait till I can give rep again )
