Seafood to Melbourne.

[Ean Austral]

Gday All,

I will leave it up to you guys to work out amoungst yourselves if you can get an order together and 1 person to be the point of consignment, as I dont like asking 1 person to put their hand up without realising if it will get support.

So I need a minimum of 70kgs and sent as 1 invoice and 1 consignment ( same as last year )

Will offer the following.

Tiger Prawns u/10 ( XL-Large) 3kg box $72

Endeavour Prawns U/15 (large ) 3kg box = $53

Endeavour Prawns 10/20 (medium) 3kg box $43

Bugs Whole 1kg bag $16

So its now upto you guys to decide if you can get together and put in an order.

Will look at sending this Tuesday 3-12 . Will go to Subzero coldstores as per last year , so would arrive Melbourne 9th

As always, check local prices as I have to build freight charges into the price.

Cheers Ean.

[Ean Austral]

With how early in December I want to send this, I would think close off date of monday 25th November, so I can Invoice the consignee and $$ can be transfered and cleared by the freight date.

I will leave it to the designated person if they are happy to close off earlier or later, but I would look at it being somewhere around that date.

Cheers Ean

[D110V8D]

Well put me down for the following....

Tiger Prawns u/10 ( XL-Large) 3kg box X 3 = $216

Endeavour Prawns U/15 (large ) 3kg box X3 = $159

Endeavour Prawns 10/20 (medium) 3kg box X 3 = $129

Total of 27kg at $504

Hope the others come along soon and chip in for the min 70kg's. :D:D

[D110V8D]

C'mon boys! Don't leave me hangin!!:D

[EdC]

I am interested in a box but as I run a "one man show" business, pick up time colud be an issue, especially leading up to christmas.

Anyone know how it has worked in the past?

We all meet at the Brooklyn cold storage depot to collect but if you cant make it some one who lives nearby might be able to collect for you.

I'll ask around here at work as i'm sure there will be some takers.

[Mick_Marsh]

How many bugs would be in a kilo?

[loanrangie]

How many bugs would be in a kilo?

Depends on the size and i was also wondering how many, might need 2kg i think.

Ball park figure for catering purposes. Don't need an exact figure.

Gday Mick,

Work on 10-12 per kilo. Yes does depend on size but these are run of catch so work on this.

Cheers Ean

[Mick_Marsh]

3kg of bugs for me please.

[Hymie]

So far I have...

3 X Endeavours @ $43
1 X Bugs @ $16

[steveG]

I'll take:

1@ Tiger Prawns u/10 ( XL-Large) 3kg box $72 ($72)
3@ Endeavour Prawns U/15 (large ) 3kg box = $53 ($159)
3@ Bugs Whole 1kg bag $16 ($48)
Total $279

Steve

[Ean Austral]

Gday All,

You guys will need to find someone who is going to be the point of contact, and the person who collects the $ and who i supply the invoice too.

Cheers Ean

[D110V8D]

Pretty quiet this year. :o

I'll put my hand up for the point of contact etc for the order. :)

[Hymie]

Update


3 X Endeavours @ $43 = $129.00
1 X Bugs @ $16 = $ 16.00
1 X Tiger Prawns u/10 ( XL-Large) 3kg box $72 = $ 72.00
1X Endeavour Prawns U/15 (large ) 3kg box = $53 = $ 53.00

[loanrangie]

Pretty quiet this year. :o

I'll put my hand up for the point of contact etc for the order. :)

Beat me to it, if you need any help let me know.

I can put the orders into an excel spreadsheet if you like ?

[steveG]

Pretty quiet this year. :o

I'll put my hand up for the point of contact etc for the order. :)

Are you going to stick with a close off date of 25 Nov as Ean suggested at the start of the thread?
If you can PM me account details I'll transfer the money sooner rather than later (SWMBO would neuter me if she missed out 'cos I didn't pay in time :eek: ).

Steve

[D110V8D]

Hope the others come along soon and chip in for the min 70kg's. :D:D

Updated my order.

So by my count we have a total of 70kg so far, so we're good to go.

Happy to stick to the 25th of Nov if that suits everyone? I'll PM everyone bank details now.

I posted the list more so I could keep tally and see if anyone had been missed, not to say you were short in Kgs.

I will add to that post as people place their orders, that way you can check its correct also.

Cheers Ean

[fclandy]

I'll take some - just confirming numbers with a few workmates and family.

[Ean Austral]

Gday All,

If anyone is thinking of oredering any more tigers or havent place their order for tigers can you please give me a rough idea on how many as im right on my stock limit and will order some more up if I need to, but that will take 4 days so dont have alot of time to play with.


Cheers Ean

[D110V8D]

Ok I've PM'd my bank details and mobile phone number to everyone who has expressed interest or placed an order in this thread.

The 25th will be the cut off date. You will need to have finalised your order in this thread and deposited funds to my account by then so I can forward the funds to Ean as soon as I receive the invoice from him.

Well Done, Slow start but came home with a rush.:D


Mick will send Invoice today with the payment details and will provide you with the Con-note details and arrival date.


Cheers Ean

[D110V8D]

Thanks Ean. Paid the invoice yesterday morning. Looking forward to a wicked prawn laksa. :D

Can everyone PM me their mobile numbers (if you haven't already) just in case I need to reach you directly to co-ordinate the pick up of the prawns.

\m/

[loanrangie]

Thanks Ean, Mick i love the Laksa idea along with a thai green curry :).

[D110V8D]

Love a green curry to mate! Hurry up next Thursday. :D

Speaking of which.....are we all good to go for next Thursday? Assuming the delivery arrives on time can everyone get to Brooklyn on Thursday next week?
From memory we met there around 2pm last year.

FWIW it was 2.45pm last year.

The 12-2pm window suits me best, but both myself and my wife are working within about 15mins of the pickup point at present so no drama if it has to be outside those times (one or other of us will be able to get there).

Since you're the one who needs to get the consignment out of the store, most importantly the time has to fit with you !!

Steve

[D110V8D]

Thanks Steve. My memory is hammered at the best of times. :D

Doesn't matter that much to me what time we pick it up, but the afternoon is usually better.

Stay tuned......

Gday All,

Spoke to Gilberts today and your seafood is in Adelaide and we leave on Wednesdays truck.

Cheers Ean

[D110V8D]

OK. Not sure what happened to Wednesday's truck outta Adelaide but I just got a call from sub zero cold storage and they have the consignment there now! :D

He suggested that Thursday pick up isn't ideal because they tend to be quite busy through the whole day (7am - 3pm) with trucks etc coming and going and in the limited space of their car park we might be in the way a bit. :eek:

So how does everyone feel about tomorrow, say 2pm? Afternoon is better than morning according to sub zero.

[Mick_Marsh]

Suits me.

[steveG]

Fine with me.

Steve

[steveG]

Given that its only about 24hrs from now, probably a good idea to get an SMS out to everyone in case people have to make work arrangements etc.

I'm about 10 mins away from subzero (work in Altona North) so could grab a large esky and some ice if anyone can't make it until later in the afternoon. They'd just need to pick up from me before about 6pm.
Need to know tonight if that's the case.

Steve

If you grab them just put it in the esky WITHOUT any ice as they will stay frozen , if you add ice they will thaw faster as the ice is only about -2 whereas they should be atleast -18.

Just put them in the esky and close the lid.

Cheers Ean

[Mick_Marsh]

so could grab a large esky and some ice if anyone can't make it until later in the afternoon.
Esky yes, ice no.
There is a post on last years pickup about that.

Edit: What he said.

[D110V8D]

Group text sent. :)

Mick Marsh I don't have your mobile number, but obviously you are aware of the proposed new pick up time. :D

Yep. 2pm tomorrow at the place just off Somerville Road, Tottenham.
I'm registering a trailer in the morning. Should be able to make it in the afternoon ok.

Most of you have got back to me and it's looking ok for 2pm tomorrow.

I'll be picking up Hymie's order for him.

Still waiting to hear from SlugBurner, EdC and FCLandy.

[EdC]

Sorry. I left my phone at work.

14:00 okay for me....( or maybe my wifey!)

Ed.

OK got the message. Wife will be there at 2pm.

Ok I've heard back from everyone. I've notified Sub Zero that we'll be there at 2pm today. :)
