rachel2205.livejournal.comSo... guess who just updated? Yep, Villainess! Anyone interested in running a group order? (I can't! But I'd buy into one I think!)

Villainess - sent!
Sep. 17th, 2008 02:20 pmjheya.livejournal.comThis is a rather belated notification that all the packages for the Villainess group order were mailed out on Monday! I know one package two packages have already made it to their destinations, so your goodies should be with you soon if you haven't got them already. :)
Postage totals have been sent to everyone at their PayPal email addresses. Thanks to everyone who took part, and I hope you all enjoy your smellies!

Villainess - arrived!
Sep. 12th, 2008 01:35 pmjheya.livejournal.comTo those who took part in the Villainess Group Order - the big box o' goodies has arrived!
I've had a quick check through, and everything appears to be present and accounted for. I've got a few birthday plans for the weekend, but hopefully I'll still manage to get everything packed up safely, ready to be sent on its way on Monday (or even tomorrow, if I can possibly manage it). :D

Villainess - ordered!
Sep. 1st, 2008 02:37 pmjheya.livejournal.comHi everyone! I just wanted to let people know that the Villainess group order was placed earlier today. :)
Thanks to everyone for participating at such short notice, and I'll keep you all notified as the order progresses!

Villainess is a-go!
Aug. 30th, 2008 06:28 pmjheya.livejournal.comNow that it's a more sociable hour (and not the dead of night), I thought I'd post again to say that the Villainess group order is tentatively going ahead!
For all your wonderfully Smoochy needs, come on over!
It's staying open until tomorrow night, at which point I'll need all payments in to ensure I can place the order before the sale ends on Monday. Full details are contained within the linked entry. :)

Villainess, anyone?
Aug. 29th, 2008 11:48 pmjheya.livejournal.comWould anyone be up for a quick and dirty Villainess group order? They're having a 3-day, store-wide, birthday blowout sale (25% off), ending Monday.
I don't mind running it if enough people are interested (I've run one once before), but I'd like to have it all wrapped up and paid for by Sunday night, to ensure I can place it in time.
So, any takers, or are we all broke? :)
=====
Order tentatively going ahead.
The Site: Villainess
The Goal: $100.00 USD
Current Total: $230.00 ($172.50)
Shipping: Free!
Status: Closed.
Sept. 1st - Order Placed!
Sept. 12th - Order Received
Standard group order rules apply. I can accept all types of PayPal, though no e-cheques, please. You pay for your items now (minus 25%, plus PayPal fees), and I'll invoice you for postage from me to you once the order has arrived. I'll be using standard 1st class mail within the UK, and regular airmail to the EU. If you would prefer I use a different shipping method, just ask and I'll do my best to oblige. :)
Any shipping costs from Villainess and any customs charges we incur will be split equally amongst participants. Due to the short ordering window, I'll be issuing refunds if any items run out of stock before the order is placed, rather than trying to organise replacements in time. (Well, unless anyone specifically wants to leave me a backup list ahead of time)
Any other questions? Just ask!

Villainess postage
Jul. 18th, 2008 10:58 pmparmavioletuk.livejournal.com![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif){kind=small}
rachel2205. I've tried to get in touch with you 3 times over the past few days, but I'm assuming there's something funny going on with your email, as I haven't had a reply. Could you please check out the message I left for you on the main Villainess group order post. I need to let Brooke know whether to send another lot of kabooms or a refund.Apart from Rachel, everyone else's parcels have been sent out! I'm afraid my Personal PayPal account has been maxed out by all the recent group order activity (I didn't think I'd received £250 to that account, but PayPal tell me different :/ ) so could you please send payments (which include fees) to my Premier account (address under the cut). If anyone's really against paying the PayPal fees let me know and I'll see if I can "borrow" my Mums account ;)
( Postage totals within )
Thanks to everyone who took part, and enjoy your Villainess! :)
Villainess arrived
Jul. 16th, 2008 02:32 pmparmavioletuk.livejournal.comThe Villainess parcels arrived late on Thursday while I was at work. Brooke was very generous in adding some extra LE soap samples, but it wasn't quite enough to go around all of us. Everyone will get a sample with their order, just not necessarily an LE one. I've also randomly given out the other little extras - chocolate, Q or D? promotional thing, and wagon charm.
I sent out a few parcels on Monday, and the bulk of the remaining parcels yesterday, so the majority of you should be getting your Villainess any day now. Unfortunately though I have had a few problems (and a cold *sniffle*), that mean the remaining parcels will not be sent out until Friday. For one thing I have totally run out of tape! I was going to nick my Dads packing tape from work, but he'd run out, so I nicked my Mums cellotape (sp?) and ummm... used it all up *note to self, buy Mum some more cellotape* I'll be getting some more tape tomorrow night whilst I'm at work (gotta love that 10% staff discount) so I'll have a marathon packing and posting session on Friday to get the last lot of orders out, and I'll probably make a post on Saturday with everyone's postage total...
As a side note, to anyone planning on ordering the Kabooms! from Villainess: don't bother unless you don't mind it turning up in powder form! That's what happened torachel2205's Crushed Kabooms! and apparently it's not just an international issue. The new packaging for it is a little tub, and there's just too much room in them for the bombs to rattle around in. Brooke's aware of the issue though, so hopefully she'll be changing the packaging for them sometime...

Jul. 4th, 2008 03:56 pmparmavioletuk.livejournal.comAll Teapigs orders were sent out this morning. I just sat down to work out the postage, and taking into account the 15% discount from the order, the charges are so minimal that I'm going to let you have postage on me! Two people even had a credit, so rachel2205 and flostygritter should be getting a partial refund from me soon ;) I'd be grateful if people could let me know when their tea arrives. I'm totally paranoid when it comes to Royal Mail. Although I did get an empty bubble-mailer in the post a couple of weeks ago, that should have contained a Silk Road Trading Co. Odalisque soap, so my paranoia is a little justified >:(
We have a cns from Villainess already! You can track the order here. It should take about a week to get here, but as the order was so huge I hope people don't mind if I take my time to get all the parcels sent out once it arrives.

Villainess group order
Jul. 1st, 2008 12:07 amparmavioletuk.livejournal.comThe Site: Villainess
The Total: $359.50
The Goal: $100
The Shipping: FREE!!
STATUS: CLOSED
This is going to be a blink-and-you'll-miss-it order, as I want to get it wrapped up before all the limited editions end up out of stock. I'm keeping it open until Midday Wednesday 2nd July. Postage is free on orders over $100, but we'll easily make that target. As usual postage from me-to-you will be charged once the items have arrived.
I can take all types of paypal, and as I have two accounts - one Personal (basic), the other Premier - anyone paying with funds or bank transfer does not need to pay paypal fees!!
Because of this I'd be grateful if when placing your order you would let me know what type of paypal you will be using - funds, bank transfer, credit card, debit card - so that I can give you the correct paypal address, and add fees to the total (or not) as necessary.
My feedback can be found here!
ETA: ppcalc is really letting me down. It's just not calculating the fees accurately! If it were a matter of a few pence I'd let it go, but it seems to be an average of 30cents per transaction. As a result I'll be adding the difference to the postage costs from me-to-you. Sorry about this :(
Also it seems that the Trauma soap was mispriced when it was earlier showing as $3.50. The price has now gone up to $5.00.

Teapigs cns + new Villainess goodies
Jun. 30th, 2008 06:48 pmparmavioletuk.livejournal.comI got an email from Teapigs today to say that our tea is on the way!! With any luck it should arrive within the next couple of days and I'll try to get everything packaged up and ready to send out by Friday.
I also got an email from Villainess about the new goodies (Trauma whipped & smooch! Quick or Dead?!!) and was wondering if anyone fancied doing a group order? If no one steps up then I'd be willing to do a quick group order (as they tend to sell out of the limiteds very quickly, and I'd like to keep it quite small), but I'd be grateful if someone else could do it... Oh, and fyi, if you didn't see it posted in the Villainess blog, shipping is now free on orders $100 or more, rather than the $75 it used to be.
Villainess Group Order Arrived!

Villainess Group Order
Feb. 9th, 2008 06:40 pmgalenx.livejournal.comSTATUS : ORDER PLACED
Hello, folks.
Seems like there's a lot of people interested in a Villainess group order this time around. Free international shipping isn't hard to reach - we only need to collate a $75 order!
So, belatedly, I'm offering to run one. I've run a couple of BPAL group orders in the past, and several Villainess ones (see here) albeit not for a wee while now! My feedback page can be found here
Feel free to post below with whatever you would like to order from the Villainess site, catalogue or limited edition, and I'll give you a total as soon as I see your request.

Villainess - All sent!
Dec. 17th, 2007 11:11 amjheya.livejournal.comI just got back from the Post Office, which means that all the packages are on their way! Please check your e-mail for individual postage costs, and here's hoping for quick passage through the pre-Christmas postal maze. :)
The Villainess has arrived!
Dec. 15th, 2007 01:38 pmjheya.livejournal.comJust wanted to let everyone in the Villainess group order know that the big box o' goodies has arrived! (and man, carrying close to a stone of bath products home from an out of the way PO isn't the easiest of tasks, heh)
I'm going to try and get everything packaged up over the weekend, and should hopefully be able to get it all out in the mail on Monday via 1st class/airmail. UK orders should hopefully make it to their destinations before Christmas, EU probably not, I'm afraid. :(
If anyone has any special requests, just let me know and I'll see what I can do. :)

Last Call for Villainess!
Nov. 30th, 2007 01:14 pmjheya.livejournal.comI'm planning on closing up the Villainess Group Order (free shipping target reached!) tonight so that I can get all the payments in, ready to place the order over the weekend. So if you were waffling on anything, now's your last chance to join in!
I probably won't be able to respond to comments until evening, so if you don't hear back straight away, don't fret, I'm not ignoring you. :)

Villainess Group order
Nov. 26th, 2007 05:30 pmjheya.livejournal.comThe Site: Villainess
The Total: $218.50 USD
The Goal: $75.00 USD
The Shipping: FREE!
STATUS:
(Dec 1) Order Placed!
(Dec 4) Order shipped, awaiting arrival.
(Dec 15) The Villainess has landed!
(Dec 17) All mailed out!
As there were a few people interested, I'm opening up a group order for Villainess! I'm planning on keeping it open until the end of the week, but if we hit free shipping and it looks like certain items are going to run out of stock I may place it earlier. If we don't manage to make the shipping target then postage will be split equally amongst the participants. :)
The plan is you pay for your items (plus pesky PayPal fees) now, and then I'll invoice you for shipping from me to you when the items have arrived and I know exactly how much it'll cost. If you want to request a specific postage method (Recorded mail, etc) then just ask, and I'll be happy to accommodate you if I'm able. Otherwise I will probably use standard first class within the UK, and airmail to the EU. As the postal times tend to get very unpredictable the closer we get to Christmas I can't guarantee you'll get your stuff in time for it, but I can hope.

jheya.livejournal.comI'm sure everyone's already wiped out due to the large number of seasonal updates recently, but Villainess has just unveiled a new line of products using Possets scents.
So, would anyone be up for a group order? I'm tentatively up for running it if people are interested, providing it doesn't get too huge. I've never run a group order before (hence why I'd like to keep it small-ish!), but I do have feedback from BPAL swaps/sales if anyone's interested in my credentials. :)

Nov. 12th, 2007 08:10 amwikkidraven.livejournal.comVILLAINESS--order is in! I wasn't able to add Unicorn Poo to my shopping cart, so I've emailed Brooke to see whether they are a) out of stock (again) in which case I will refund those who ordered it or b) available, in which case hopefully she will invoice and add them to our box. Will keep everyone posted.
BPAL SALONS ORDER OF DOOM--I am waiting on a shipping quote at the moment for our ridiculous amount of bottles, and will invoice as promised. However, after checking out this announcement I thought that some of you may want to take advantage of the discounted shipping and tack on some new anniversary blends (and new Poes!) from the Lab and Dark Delicacies. I've already been informed that our order will not ship until after Will-Call so we should be timed correctly.nisaba I know that you are after a Death of Autumn bottle and those are only up until the 15th, but I'm pretty sure I've got that held for you so don't worry. Personally, I'm gonna jump on a couple of bottles that I missed from the last update :D
Whew! I think that's all for now, watch this space!
