Re: [AGA-mcm] TAG and PAM inventory



Done, on website stuff. Wow, we're catching up fast -- so only 2008 TAGs remain in back issues -- Cheryl, I'm gonna need those PDFs for the e-archive...

In terms of "flat", I was thinking more along the lines of including the shipping PER item. i.e., individual TAG or PAM - $3 extra; APH $7 extra; etc. Then I could have the website show two options for each purchase, the domestic and foreign.

Maybe we could get someone on the management committee to calculate a ballpark cost to ship each of these types of items.

PAM Spring 2001 (Issue #5) - Officially SOLD OUT.

TAG 20 v 2 - SOLD OUT (technically 1 left)
TAG 20 v 3 - SOLD OUT (technically 2 left)
TAG 20 v 4 - SOLD OUT

Also - be sure to update the 6+4 (now 5+4). 

As far as the flat rate foreign shipping - that would certainly make my life 
easier.  I'm not
sure what a fair price would be.  Depending on what they get (APH vs. TAGs), 
shipping generally
runs between $10-15.  I've had a couple more than that, a couple less, but I'd 
say that's a good
estimate.  I can dig up more receipts if you'd like to see data breakdown.  
Please let me know
what the Board has to say about adding this?

Website now updated with these

      Another thing that I've been wondering - Is there any way to make it 
easier to
      catch people who forget to pay the foreign shipping charge?  I keep 
missing
      them, and I really *really* really hate asking people for money, 
especially if
      I catch my mistake after I've already sent the magazines.  I think many of
      these people just don't see that they have to ask for a shipping estimate 
-
      can we make it clearer somehow?


The best way I can see is to have a fixed price for foreign orders for 
EVERYTHING, so they
have to select one or the other.  I think it was left the confused way because 
Diana
preferred to calculate the shipping based on the total order.  But if you could 
figure out
a simple flat rate that covers most/all countries, then we could just allow 
them to
pre-select.

Aside from this, I don't think we have any sort of magic calculator app that 
will do it
for us, nor does PayPal offer it. :(
