[ MORE BOOK STUFF ] Possibility of hosting group orders + shipping holy grail
So I discovered Priority Intl Mail. There is hope for cheap shipping lol.
This is for the INTL 12"x9" Flat rate envelope. It's roughly $26
(this photo is for Korea but the price is the same for multiple countries like Thailand, Chile, Britain, etc)
I say envelope because the $26.50 small international flat rate BOX is too small for the book itself :-( These are the box options. Smallest is #1. The dimensions don't work for a book that's going to bc 6x9. There IS a thing called a "large video box" for the same price, but it's 9.5"x6.5" just perfectly for the boox size with a 2 inch width of space.
The MEDIUM box (#3) is pricier. $66 US dollars (It says korea but its the same price for other countries, again)
I think the envelope is great for individual orders (seriously, the price is A+++ because the other options range from $30-$90 (sigh pies)/). As for the medium box, I really (really really reaaaally) think it COULD BE cheaper than the envelope despite being $66 IF YOU GET A GROUP OF PEOPLE IN YOUR COUNTRY/SCHOOL/NEIGHBORS (i dont know who you read my stories with lol) AND SPLIT THE FEE. If you get AT LEAST 6 people, that's $11 per person. Even less if there's more pep[leand the medium box has a 20 pound limit and the book is only going to be 172 ounces or around there.
The boxes/envelope won't cost a thing. I can get them for free at the postal office.
If you guys want to see the shipping options for your country, this is the rates calculator from the USPS [HERE :-D]
Group orders are heavenly, I have to say. The $10/500 pesos just covers the book + freebies. Shipping depends on how many people to be honest. I know many of you are okay with whatever the shipping cost will be, and that's cool! The envelope should be great for you. I'll stop by the Post Office tomorrow or sometime this week to get the boxes so I can check the sizes and how I would fix a 6x9 book + other items. I'll see if they also have that large video box that actually fits the book.
I'll also look into using FedEX.
So there's this survey [here]. It's for those if you're willing to host group orders if you're interested.
If you're not interested in group orders, you can do this survey [here] . It's just a country survey. If you're from the PH, just answer the country survey so i can get an idea. My beta will hold the group orders (she's in Manila).
ABOUT FTBRBTY
Tonight (9/7/2015) I will be uploading (and hopefully) buying a copy of the book from LULU.com so I can have a physical copy of it, see how the cover is, what I need to fix, beta, make notes in it, etc etc. I will update you guys when the book arrives :D
ABOUT NOT INTENDED & 10080
Not Intended is over 500 pages, you guys. It would take approximately $22-23 to make, not including freebies if you wanted, and shipping (tears). But if you really really really really wanted NI bc you're rich and you're JAmes Reid (marry me huuu), then... I'll try to work something out with you an an individual. I am already editting NI. Have been for 6 months here and there, so we'll see.
10080 is 22 pages. I guess that can be added in. I'll see.
