MS5 Thread Will Be Locked Today and will be closed 01/19/04, 5PM CST

Please gp tp mt last post for the info you need most.

You read correctly, we have enough people together to get BRAND NEW copies of MS5 for $299 each!

Here's the deal: if enough of us band together to create a quantity order, we can save Shawn and Lizzie a lot of labor and save ourselves a few bucks. If more than one copy of an AES title is preordered at one time, then the cost per copy would be as follows:

$319 x 7-11 pieces
$315 for Case of 12
$309 x 13-23 pieces
$305 x 2 Cases of 12
$299 x 25-35 pieces
$295 for 3 cases of 12
$289 x 37-47
$285 for 4 cases of 12
$279 for 5 cases of 12 ($100 below MSRP)

I live 4 hours from Shawn and would drive to his location to pick the games up in person to save shipping cost. So that saves $8-$14 depending upon where you live (as opposed to someone whom would have them shipped once to them and then need to reship them again to the final location).

I can provide over 100 references for anyone whom might have any questions. Or you can just click on the links in my first post where my feedback is.

Since I will pick them up, the only shipping cost is from me to you and that would be the same as Shawn would charge. I'd be sure to pack them really well. I'll even line the bottom of the case with paper towel to help avoid the SNK logo from scuffing the back of the cart. I would ship all items wthin 24 hours of the game's release.

Right now all that is needed is a commitment for either a JP or US MS5, payment (by Paypal or USPS MO) will not be required until early February. YOU DO NOT have to put up any money right now. DO NT commit unless you plan to follow thru!

Payment will be required by Feb 1, 2004.

IF YOU ARE INTERESTED, PLEASE SPEAK UP.

1.rimm_rs, 2 copies JP

Can you only accept payment via Paypal?

I will take Paypal or USPS MO.

In the case of an MO, I will need to get it 2 weeks ahead of time. I DO NOT want to tell Shawn, I'll be buying X number of games and then not deliver. That would be uncool.

If youre using Paypalyou'll have to add 4% to cover the fees. If you're paying with a MO, there are NO ADDITIONAL FEES.

Shipping cost will be at cost all I need to know is 3 things:

#1. Type of service Express Mail Service or Priority Mail.

#2. Delivery Confirmation (required for Priority, it's 45 cents) OR insurance (will be $4.30). EMS offer $100 of insurance, so if you use tha service add $3 for full insurance if you wish.

#3. Your zip code; so I can figure your rate.

It's not for lack of trying on either of our parts that we've done no deals! Phillip and I have miised like 3 times. EVERY time he's PMed me about an item, it had been sold and I just had not had time to update my ad yet!

Well that's over!

Of course I'd be glad to hook you up! See the top post for the list, you're on it.

ANYONE (and I do mean anyone) whom wants to sign up is free to!

Again no money is required until 2 weeks before the thread closes (the thread will close 2 weeks before MS5 releases) and that will be February. So you can save some $ AND support Shawn.

You'e on the list.

I will need the 4% for only 1 reason, I have a Premiere account and I pay 4% on all transaction for that very reason. There's no way around it. ;-(

Still 4% over the reduced cost is still a GREAT deal.

Still MOs will save you the most.
