Hi Graham

I believe that this is the frame, but I have requested confirmation from the exhibition committee just to be safe. If anyone can advise, could they post here so everyone is aware.

With one day to go, a few more orders have come in and I have updated my spreadsheet according. PDF attached as before.

It is worth noting that we are approaching the next discount level on three items.
  • Antique White (WM501) requires just eight more to get to the price down to £2-40 a sheet from the current £2-50. Prices are ex-VAT, so that's a total saving of 12p per sheet. It does not sound like much, but it all adds up.
  • Midnight Blue (WM566) has been surprisingly popular. Two more sheets will drop the price by 5p (6p with VAT taken into account) per sheet.
  • The biggest savings are available on the Nubord backing sheets. If I convert all the orders for Nubord2 into the thicker Nubord1, I am just two sheets away from getting the price down to £2-19. (For some unfathomable reason, Nubord1 has a better volume discount that the thinner Nubord2.) With VAT on top, that's a saving of just over 19p per sheet.
If no further orders come in by the end of tomorrow, does anyone want to increase their order on the relevant items?

Also, if everyone happy that I order Nubord1 across the board if we can get the combined order up to the magic number of 50? I propose to do this unless there are any objections.

Mike

This applies only if others help to take the totals to the next level!!

If it helps you can INCREASE my order by the following:
2 x Antique White
and
1 x Midnight Blue

Hi Mike,
Thank you very much for all the effort that you are putting into organising and procuring this order at the best price.
With my Logan Compact Elite Mat Cutter I am just able to cut the thinner Nubord 2 relatively easily which I shall not be able to do with Nubord !.
Additionally Nubord 2 is lighter too which I prefer. Hence please could I stick with order of Nubord 2 (x5) & Antique white mountboard (x7) .
Sorry,
Iggy

Hi Mike,

I'll take up the slack on the midnight blue if that helps (2 sheets).

That colour is great for school presentations (the joys of being a granddad).

Well done.

Tom
