Would you be bothered with this?

We have a shit loads of iPhone 4 cases we want to get rid off

Problem is, it cost to post and banks charge a minimum of 10c per transaction

we rather do a fund raiser to give it away

E.g gold coin donation (so $1 is the going rate)

Was thinking of doing a click and collect,

Instead of posting, we post a deal and customers prepay to collect

But would you honestly be bothered in the first place?

We are clearing out iluv iPhone 4 cases (normally listed for $6) gabt.com.au

    A fundraiser? Like to a charity?

    So we donate $1 to charity and you bear the cost of post/bank fee?

      "Instead of posting, we post"
      I guess I thought my confusion was reasonable… :/

    How do people prepay without involving a bank and you getting charged 10c?

    • Aceboy884 on 26/04/2013 - 13:28

      bank deposit instead of credit card payment

        Why not just get people to preregister to pickup and give you a gold coin at pickup and assume half won't turn up.

    that bumper case can be bought on ebay cheaper than $6 and it 99% same as what we get from apple store including packaging with apple logo etc. but yeah for $1 some people will be happy.

    Just donate the goods to a local charity? They can sell them at a market day.

    Aceboy, I'm not sure what the demand is but I'm happy to distribute the iPhone cases at our Melbourne meetup in May. I think we'll be giving away t-shirts and Entertainment book vouchers.

      Hi Neil

      You are expecting 60 peeps on the day right?

      • neil on 27/04/2013 - 18:45

        Hard to say at this point. 10 confirmed as of today.

        66 people were interested in a meetup on Friday in May, plus maybe others. Usually with these things, people tend to RSVP closer to the date.

        • Aceboy884 on 27/04/2013 - 21:48

          let me know closer to date,

          spent the whole arvo shifting through our products today… time for a nap!
