This split has Stuigi's approval:

I would like to propose a split of
12ml bottle of Amouage Homage Attar &
30ml
bottle of Amouage Tribute Attar

Costs:
30ml bottle of Amouage Homage Attar - Landing is GBP299 or around Australian $525
30ml bottle of Amouage Tribute Attar- Landing is GBP299 or around Australian $525

Portion Costs:

1ml Homage - A$17.50 (earlier cost in 12ml was A$23.75)
1ml Tribute -
A$17.50

THE FINAL COST WILL SLIGHTLY VARY AS THE EXCHANGE RATE ON THE DATE OF PURCHASE WILL BE APPLICABLE

Portions can be made available in 1ml sizes and above, upto a max of 5ml.

1ml & 2ml portions will be filled in dip stick vials. If you want I can use 5ml roll on for this too.
If dip stick vial is used, I will further put the little vial in a 8ml plastic atomiser(with the stem cut) so that it offers protection to the rather fragile glass vial during shipping.

3ml & upwards portions will be filled in a high quality glass roll on of 5ml+ capacity with steel cap and steel ball.

Container Costs:

Dip stick glass vial cost + plastic atomiser casing for protection = A$3.50 or
High quality Glass Roll (5ml+ capacity) with steel cap and steel roller ball on = $2

Postage & Packaging:

I will try to post the packages through Airmail Letter post, which costs around A$4.50 (inclusive padded bag) to the USA. Postage to Europe is marginally higher, at around A$5.00.

HOWEVER, the thickness limit for the package is 20mm for this post. I will try to see if the clerk at the PO, allows me to use this service if the packages are slightly thicker. I have managed to get it out this way, in the past but it depends on the clerk at the counter. Please note that if I use this postage choice, I will not be able to use any padding around the glass vial/roll on and therefore chances of breakage are there.

If I am unable to get it out this way, then I'd have to send them through Regular Airmail as a parcel weighing under 250gms and the cost for that is around A$12 (for USA) & around A$14 (for Europe) (Auspost just increased their prices marginally 2 days ago)

I would want that initially participants pay for the higher postage and if I manage to get it out cheaply I can issue the partial refund.



Payment:

I prefer that participants send payment through paypal using the PERSONAL option. Buyer pays all fees even when using Personal option.
If you don't wish to use the Personal/Gift option and want to pay through Regular Paypal, then you will have to pay for Registered Airmail shipping & also take care of ALL paypal fee (around 5%).
Registered Shipping to USA (under 500gms) is available for around A$20, for Europe it is around A$25.
Registered Airmail will obtain signature on delivery and will also give proof of postage.

Once all portions are spoken for, payments will be called for in advance and when ALL payments are received, I will go ahead and purchase the flacons.

Portions Available/Taken:

Homage - (managed to get this in 30ml size too thereby reducing our cost significantly)

Me - 5ml

I have sent out individual PM's/email to overseas participants requesting for payments. Members within Australia will hear from me tomorrow.

Please post your interest through PM or email me at [email protected]

Disclaimer: I will not be responsible for any loss/damage/confiscation/custom duties for any package sent to the participants. I have shipped 100's of packages overseas and have never had an issue in the past. I will ensure that I package them to my utmost satisfaction and once the package is sent, it's beyond my control on what happens to it. Thank you.

A 2nd bottle of Amouage Homage has been added to the split due to excessive demand.
Please note: NO MORE FURTHER BOTTLES WILL BE ADDED.

ALL SPLITS SPOKEN FOR.

I will soon be updating the thread asking for payments. It's just a bit delayed as I have emailed the seller since I am unable to get VAT reduced to zero from the invoice. VAT should not be charged as I am outside of the EU. As soon as I am able to get this fixed, I'd do an update here. Thank you all for grabbing the portions so quickly.
If someone is having 2nd thoughts about their purchase, NOW is your time to let me know as I can then make available your portions for someone else.

I'm sorry I didn't notice this. I would have totally been in for a ml of Homage. :(

Update: 3rd July 2010

I have received shipping confirmation of the package. Since it does not have tracking I can't predict when it is going to arrive however I am hopeful it should get delivered sometime during the coming week.

Update:

I called up the seller in the UK again today since I hadn't heard anything from them regarding the shipping of the flacons.
The lady there said that the flacons will be shipped out to my by the end of this week and will take around 7 days from the day it is shipped, to reach out to me. She convinced me that she will email me with shipping confirmation.
The first time when I had called her (2 days ago), I had specifically asked her if she had the flacons in stock and she said they had them but today she mentioned that they are on the way from Oman.

I will update once again, hopefully by the end of this week, when I get some info from them.
Thanks.

Update:

Both the flacons arrived this morning. Everything all good. I am still waiting for the roll ons to be delivered. They should be coming any day now. As soon as the roll ons arrive, I should be able to decant & send out the packages within 2-3 days. I will send individual PM's to recipients as soon as their packages are mailed out. Thanks

Hey all

The roll ons have arrived and all juice has been decanted.
I will try to get the packages out by midweek, next week.

I apologise for the slight delay in posting the packages & for not being able to reach out to everyone individually but I have just had a rather unpleasant tiff with my landlord and am having to move out yet again on a very short notice. So things are rather hectic with me as of now. I am just trying my best to balance out everything.

Thanks for your patience.
