Ordering large order from redwolf
 
So I'm planning on ordering around $400-450 worth of stuff from redwolf. However, the shipping is absurd. Do they offer discounts for larger orders? I've emailed them several times but I've got no answer.

400-450 $ is not that big for an order !

cerealmaniac October 23rd, 2009 20:07

how much is shipping? may i ask?

Crunchmeister October 23rd, 2009 20:13

How much is shipping, and what is it you're ordering?

Shrapnel[Op-For] October 23rd, 2009 20:19

Ordering lots of pantac gear, batterys, sling. Shipping was around $80. Sorry, I'm not sure if that really is too much, I guess I was wondering if they ever offer any discounts for certain amounts of items bought. Ie. they had a jan, feb march code for discounts.

Given that shipping for a single item from Hong Kong is usually around $30, $80 isn't much for shipping a $450 order.

your crying over $80!? im looking at a $300 shipping charge from ehobby on my next order....

Pantac is readily available in Canada. ASCMart is their distributor. Batteries slings and other items are readily available on airsoftparts.ca. So unless you're dead-set on something one of those guys can't get, there's little reason to order from overseas. Yeah, maybe the base price of the items is higher here, when you factor in the cost of shipping from Asia, it's often cheaper, easier and faster to buy in Canada.

Thats great, READ my post, I'm not crying, merely wondering if they offer any deals, or discount codes for such an order. Ehobby charges a larger amount for orders because there items are marked down to compensate for the lower prices.

Yeah, I've looked at asc mart, pantac's website, and several other sites. I'm stuck with redwolf because they are the only ones who carry all the items i need.

Wasn't Kampfer supposed to be doing an order? Although I think that was in the summer so you probably missed the boat on that one.

Anyways... I think I remember seeing something about discounts from Redwolf however I think the minimum order amount was like $1000 or 1500 (that's USD)

EDIT: I'll try to find you a link to confirm that.

EDIT: So it looks like you'd have to be one of their "wholesalers" in order to get the free shipping thing. However I'm pretty sure I saw a page somewhere that said they would ship for free or something with orders over $1000 however it was probably one of those wholesaler things where the wholesalers will do more than one large order and will do it multiple times. Note, I cannot access the "wholesaler section" to confirm this as I am not a wholesaler however I remember seeing something to that effect...

$80 shipping is nothing IMO.... shipping from HK is $40 min. and thats like shipping for a bag of BBs

Last time i bought some gear from Ebairsoft it was free shipping.

...that's because EB explicity states they include the shipping price in their item prices.

And that has nothing to do with this thread.
