    I brought mine back home in my checked luggage from prime. They were totally fine. Then again, I packed it in the middle of my clothes ;) but the box itself was solidly packed with bubble wrap.

    I know, I was supposed to post a photo, but time... Life has been too nuts.

    I got mine, it holds glorious beer, and is now one of my favorite steins.

    Thank you for organizing it :)

    Read the OP :)

  • punziepunzie Cookie Pimp Registered User regular
    Alright so I've hit a couple snags.
    The first one is time. I had to put this on hold while I took care of some life and work issues the last week or 2. To be safe we need to allow 3-4 weeks for delivery from the time of order and PAX is about 5 weeks away. That's cutting it close.
    The second major issue is delivery and storage on my end. I'll need someone with a truck (or other spacious vehicle) to help me pick them up from the shipping destination. Then I either need to store them at someone else's huse, or lug them up all the stairs to my 4th floor apartment, only to carry them all back down when I take them to PAX (no elevator and narrow stairs that turn every 5 steps make luggage carts unusable).
    I've already sent out a message or 2 asking for help, but I dunno guys. It looks like I might have to say I can do this :( If someone else in the Boston area wants to jump in and take charge right now, let me know and we can work together.

    By any chance do you have a price for a rush order? they should have an option to rush the order with a fee

    Even if we cant get them in time for East, id still be up for getting them shipped out to me since i missed the last run if there is enough interest.

    I'd be willing to help make this a reality in whatever way I can. I'm not local (I'm down south in Philly), but let me know if there's anything that I can do.

    I already have some so I'm not in on this, but have you considered potentially having them shipped directly to Boston? You can ask your hotel if they'll accept the packages (normally not a problem, but depending on quantity I can see it being more of a potential hassle) and arrange for the delivery to get there on PAX Thursday or something. Just a thought so that more people can get their hands on these! (I ordered mine and had them shipped from the Prime order - they're totally awesome)

    Ok it looks like we might be ok here. Everyone thank @khadour for helping. And tune in tomorrow (hopefully) for more updates.

    Also, you may be able to get them shipped directly to the hotel- I've never had /that/ big of a shipment sent, but I've frequently gotten things mailed to my hotel destination, just called to warn them.

    @khadour is pretty much the best.

    The problem with getting them shipped to the hotel is that many of them need to be packed for individual shipments to people. So I'd still need to get them to a shipping place to take care of that. I expect even many if the ones being picked up in person will need to be packed up for safe transport back home so that's me taking them to the for asking and then right back to the hotel for pickup.
    It's cool though. Khadour's got our transport and storage needs handled. (Most likely. I don't want to say for sure in case something comes up.)

    Haha, actually, I'd love to see Khadour as an HK unit. Meatbags everywhere.

    The steins usually arrive on a pallet, and are pretty labor intensive to track and pack.

    @khadour and @punzie - thanks for pulling it off.

    Happily on Sabbatical. Don't bug me.
  • LexiconGrrlLexiconGrrl Registered User regular
    Also @punzie - if you need extra hands to deal with these at PAX, you know where to find me.

    I'd be fine with having them direct shipped after pax...less fuss.

    I've got it covered. The HHR will fit a significant amount of cargo, so a full pallet of steins should be no problem, and we've got plenty of room in the garage.

    I did the last of my homework this morning and updated the pricing list on the OP. Steins will be $8.50 each. Yes, it's $0.50 more than last time. While I didn't see Lexicongrrl's math and stuff, I suspect most of it is because they have to travel across the country to get from the factory to me instead of the 2 states they had to travel to get to her in Seattle.
    I'll start work on the order form in a few. Expect it to be up this afternoon.

    Hear ye, Hear ye, Here's an order form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1XmEd6PqSfBHIQH5Lu0tCyCtBW6-H-MIpgDKhALljvb4/viewform
    Isn't that an attractive looking link?

    Directions:
    1. Fill out the form.
    2. Wait for a Paypal invoice (I'm doing these manually, but I'll try to be speedy).
    3. Pay said invoice. I want to put in the (first?) order on Monday, 2/25. That means if you don't pay BEFORE then, you will not get in on this order. We may be able to do a second order, but it will REQUIRE you to pay for packaging and shipping from me to you because they will not be here in time for PAX.
    4. Wait.
