I think that is 63, I will add them up again and pot with siizes to clarify. I will try a nursery or two and see if they want to take the leftover bags.
If not I will put the order to Aurthur and see what difference it will make to the unit price.
This is my guess. $13.5 a bag wholesale x 100 + $450 caratge to NSW = $18 a bag will result in $13.50 a bag x63 +$400 cartage = $19.85 a bag.
Then there is the $2 we are adding on for cost related to transpoting to a collection piont if needed.
It might be best if people state now if this would be a deal breaker before we get a new quote for less bags.
It would sell for about $25 from a nursery I would expect. What where you paying sreeve?

$22 is ok for me

I am doing a demo / talk next week at the School of Bonsai Wednesday night group re Alternative soil mixes, and will be taking along some info re this deal then so maybe some interest can come from that.
I have also sent out a mail tonight with this thread as the topic to all my Bonsai buddies so maybe some of them might spring as well

Not to late to put in an order Nereus but pick up is near Parramatta NSW. How soon before you hit the mainland. I would think courier costs to Tassie would cost a bit?

Hey Nereus, I move from Hobart to the sun in Sydney two years ago, I still love visiting there in the summer though (shack at Orford)

Will you have trouble getting the stuff in through quarantine? It's already done quarantine coming in to WA but will they stuff you around down there again coming from another state? :?
