Okay, that is a slug in the guts. $515AUD duty, tax and admin fees for my chips to be 'released'. :eek: Its like a ransom demand. "I'm gonna need more than 48hrs to come up with money, ya gotta believe me!!! I won't involve the cops, honest!!!" Gee whizz :sick::sick::oops::sick: All they needed was a sawn-off and balaclava emblem on the form.

Now to come up with the dosh. Man, I was happy about these, now I just feel ill. Sorry gang, will get them soon, and get the samples out asap after that.

Tip for young players - get two boxes with separate invoices, which 'somehow' are under $1KAUD.

Hey Ad, as per my previous post, I didn't realise that daylight robbery was still a pastime of my convict-bred countrymen. Bush-rangers (ie. Highwaymen/Outlaws etc.) went out last century :). They have held the chips until I can come up with $515. I sold a few of my possessions (PT Studio gym equipment), to get these chips, so I don't have that kind of money readily available. Its a bit of a cheek, but I did ask for some help on this I'm afraid. Lesson learned.

Thank you so much to all that have responded, and in some cases, chipped in a few extra bucks :). It is well received and shows what a great community we have here (@Tommy) :).

The chips should be with me next week, and the samples will be heading out straight away, right after some pron :).

Kind regards mates :),

Funds sent. LMK if more is needed -- would be disastrous to have the package sent back stateside due to non-payment of import taxes.

Thx so much BG. I scrounged together the money so it could at least get released :). I have bought heaps of stuff internationally and have never even considered customs duties and taxes, so when I got pinged I didnt expect this amount. really appreciate the sentiments.
 
Hi all,

An 8-chip sample set has become available for anyone interested. If you are keen, please PM @Puggy for payment. Once he confirms receipt of $25.60USD, I will send them to you :).

Cheers
A.
 
Samples are being packaged as we speak and will be heading out over the next week. I have been away for work for most of this week and will be gone half of next, but they will be coming, rest-assured :). Will advise when all out.

As an aside. The 2M plaques proved to be quite popular, so much so, that an 'outsider' came to PCF after searching for James Bond/Casino Royale plaques for his collection. He promptly ordered 30 of the 2M Casino Royale Plaques, and bought all remaining 'Blades' plaques. He has expressed his delight with these plaques by commissioning me to have a 1M plaque (94mm x 66mm), made for his collection, of which he desires another 30. So, numbers are not a problem, as I might grab another 10 for myself. There is no pressure, and I won't be upset as I know it can get pretty expensive with all the samples being offered, but I didn't want to forget you guys at all just in case. :)

Does anyone want a 1M plaque at all? $5.76USD + $7USD shipping ($12.76USD).

If anyone else has a burning desire to see another Casino Royale plaque denomination created, and wants 30, let me know :)

Hope you are all having a swell day.

In for a sample pls. If anyone does order more 2m's I'll take a sample of that too pls.
 
Righto, after working away for a week and a half and now having bronchitis, the first international packages are heading out today and during the next week as I am able. If you could not post pics of the content in the Top Secret package until all packages are confirmed received, that would be grand :).

I will PM you when your package is posted.

Cheers,
Adam
