Cosworx Batch Order (Wigs/Boots)

By CMKMStephens. 20/02/09, 01:36 pm

OK, anyone in Wellington needing to buy a wig? I have two people that wish to plus I'll probably get something myself. Now is probably the latest you can leave it before Armageddon. It's only two months away and shipping can be SLOW.

A BATCH ORDER OF WIGS IS IMPERATIVE due to the current economic climate as it saves money on shipping. Any wig you see on cosworx, multiply the price by 3x! That's how much it costs to buy one wig on its own. The NZ to US rate is at .51c, and that means double the price. Double on the wig, double on the shipping. However in having multiple wigs in one order that cuts down the price considerably by eliminating the shipping price for most of the wigs. Among six people you go from an individual shipping price of $19 ($38NZ) to about $9NZ.

Example:

One 'Scruffy' wig = ($35 + $19 shipping) = $108 NZ
Six seperate orders would then = $648
Six Scruffy wigs in one order = ($210 + $27 shipping) = $472

But wait, there's more! After cosworx had a bad case of retardation last time I ordered from them I received a $20 gift certificate. That's $20 US. In other words, it would cover much of the shipping.

Who needs to buy a wig?

Oh yeah, cosworx is also good for boots.

Might be interested.
When's the batch deadline?

By CMKMStephens. 20/02/09, 02:00 pm

I dunno, a week? When I get enough replies and details I guess.

You rock Chris. 'preciate it.

Wasn't Caddyl's wig the wrong colour?

I'll take a gander at the wigs on cosworx, but just another query.
I'm not from Welly, but I might be going down for Geddon, so I'd be able to pick up the wig then. Also, if they don't arrive before Welly, I'd be happy to pay postage to have it sent up to Hamilton.
I'm just wondering if that's alright, or is it just for pickup in Welly?

By CMKMStephens. 20/02/09, 06:06 pm

Yes it was, but I sorted that out remember stare

and yes sure, I can do it for other people as well, it's just less complicated trying to keep the focus on Wellington.

By Cassiel. 21/02/09, 12:22 am

Why yes, I do remember stare

Decided on the wigs I'd want to get. I'm looking at two Punky wigs in red atm, which would come up to US$60, or NZ$118.37 as of now. If I confirm my order, when would you like me to cough up the cash?

... oTZ /wallet shrivels and begs for mercy.

[eta, note to self]
punky x2 (red) $30x2
willow (silver) $40
extensions x2 (silver) $8x2
|| total: $116

Well I'll keep the thread open for a while yet an then post costs and details. I have four people including you and myself, that's the number I had last time.

I think it's just Cosworx with slow shipping. I ordered wigs from an eBay shop and it took less than two weeks. It amazed me a huge amount when they showed up.

I might be interested. I'll take a look at the wigs some time this week.

Alright then. Please to be excusing the editing of my previous post, I am horrible at keeping track of what I want. XD; Need somewhere to jot it down.

By CMKMStephens. 26/02/09, 01:56 pm

So, we still have four people, shall I place the order?

**Guest** Guest

Still keen~

By CMKMStephens. 26/02/09, 05:04 pm

So you're after the two red punky's? Is the 'red' you want the one just called 'Red'?

**Guest** Guest

Sorry for the late reply-- internet's been horrific lately so I keep missing updates.
Yup, two punkys in Red.

By CMKMStephens. 07/03/09, 05:34 pm

Oh good, considering I placed the order Razz

**Guest** Guest

Haha, okay. (:
My sincerest apologies for the late reply though. >_<

By CMKMStephens. 10/03/09, 12:34 pm

443.18 NZD @ .487USD, USD$216 (after application of my $20 voucher)

My Stuff= $80
Syne's Two= $60
Li-Bai's One= $30
Reisilverfang's One= $30

Remainder of shipping = $16, thus $4 each way.

Syne = $64 = $131.40
Li-Bai = $34 = $69.80
Rei = $34 = $69.80

Like last time, no need to pay until you actually get them especially if I must wrangle. Also, arriving in tiem for Armageddon is rather iffy.

By Cassiel. 10/03/09, 12:57 pm

Okay, thanks a lot Chris!

**Guest** Guest

Thank you~
"... arriving in time for Armageddon is kinda iffy."? I'm assuming it'll arrive after arma?

By CMKMStephens. 10/03/09, 01:24 pm

I mean that since since I ordered it at the point of 6 weeks to go until armageddon that it might arrive before hand, it might arrive shortly afterwards going by previous encounters with cosworx.

**Guest** Guest

Mmkay, thanks for the clarification~

By CMKMStephens. 18/03/09, 06:13 am

The order has apparently arrived in NZ Customs so it should arrive this week or next. Looks like they've improved on their speed.

So if you were planning costumes for Armageddon with these weeks you should be good, plenty of time.

If they're the right colour of course. And if the custom officials weren't having a conviniently timed costume party =/

**Guest** Guest

Oh, that's great. :3
I'm still looking to pick them up from you at Wellygeddon, if that's alright?

By CMKMStephens. 20/03/09, 08:33 am

Ok, I have everything, everything is the correct colour. Sacks of money kthx.
