Fed Ex tracking says the shipment should be here Thursday. I have an exam Friday morning, and then I am headed towards Houston to meet a friend. I could meet anyone who wants to that afternoon.

Order is all in stock and will ship soon, I just got the email asking if I would like for it to proceed.

I will keep the order as it stands right now, I think. I am already absorbing any difference in shipping and hazmat with the removal of my varget powder, but I can call them tomorrow and inquire if they have any idea when things will be moving along. I do apologize for my misguided optimism at the beginning of this process and any hand wrenching or obsessive forum checking it may have caused participants. I am struggling to stay patient along with the rest of you.

Yeah, I guess I was just foolishly optimistic about when all of the stuff would be arriving. I traded my AR and was just ordering some different powders to develop new loads for my .270 and my father's .257, so I'm not in any hurry to get the stuff. I feel more grief that all of you guys have to wait longer.

The primers still show as being on backorder. Currently they show no information on when they will be available

When I placed the order it said they would be available March 23, so I guess their order either got pushed back, or they did not receive enough to ship ours.

Not yet, the order says we are still waiting on the primers. I log in once a day to check so I will send out any updates if I get them

Now just waiting on the small pistol primers

I don't want you to get reimbursed by the participants of the group buy based on that $709 total, only to discover that the hazmat fee gets tacked on at shipment time & wind up having to solicit another round of reimbursements from us.

If you pull the subtotal and shipping out of the $709 total you will notice the hazmat fee is built in.

Bump to add the print off from Midsouth and announce that RHenriksen has added the breakdown of hazmat and expected shipping cost to everyone's totals. You can mail me payment, or we can arrange to meet up and shoot the breeze for a while and then exchange payment. I would like to meet some more of my local forum members if time permits. If you decide to make it down for Mardi Gras this weekend I would be glad to grab a beverage of some sort with you at whatever locale you feel comfortable.

Ok, I will be looking for an alternative supplier. I will update everyone when I find a solution.
Edit: 1/31/13 I have a midterm tomorrow morning, so I have not had an opportunity to find another vendor. I will have plenty of time tomorrow afternoon.

Just called PV and they confirmed that the order does not hit the card until it ships. I trust the members of our forum, but I would like to get payment as soon as possible to avoid making the wife angry when it does hit. I am still planning on sending this order 1/31/13. Please get any changes to your order confirmed with me by the 30th.

Any failure to pay will result in me putting your items up for auction at twice our low price

Can I add 1000 CCI small pistol primers?

Done. I got your email I just have been busy studying for midterms.

When is the cutoff date? Please PM me with details... I am looking to buy primers...

I still have one person left to add to the spreadsheet (attached in OP), but you are welcome to join in if you would like. We will be placing the order from Powder Valley, hopefully the 31 of January if I can get everything finalized. just shoot me a PM or email of how many you would like and when I send out PMs to the participants tomorrow I can send you more details. It looks like we will be in for a backorder wait with the shipping policies and product availability the way they are.

I will be sending out PM and emails to group buy participants in the next day to arrange payment and finalize everything.
