Re: BeanBay Monthly Sale - Wednesday 10th June 2009

When does the "monthly sale" end?

What Den says above is true; the most popular beans such as the Ethiopians or Sumatrans will always go quickly but that doesnt mean that what is left is inferior. For example, Andy describes the Peruvian as "the best Peruvian organic I have ever tried"

I think the pickup points are only available on the night each month that Andy has his grab-for-beans. See the first post in this thread

Thanks for the replies
I guess what I should have asked is how long are the pickup points available after the start of the beanbay sale.
Does anybody know for sure?

Id say youre too late for that shawty! I suspect orders to pick up points are well and truly all underway by now. Might be dependent on where you live.

Dennis, just so happens that you would be my pickup point as I live in Oatley

P.S. If I keep on posting like this it wont be too long before I get to 50 and will be able to add my 2 cents worth to "Good Coffees Where" ;D

Nup, not even me!
;D

The monthly BeanBay sales is a funny beast, we dont know when they will be on as we are at the whim of couriers, freight companies, brokers and Australian customs each month.

When we have the beans landed and packed we email all members the date / time of the sale and make the pickup points available selections at the checkout (when we send the email.)

The BeanBay green bean sale is normally a day or two after that and the pickup points are available for 2,3 or 4 days after. So in total they might be available 3-6 days.

We hide the pickup point delivery option at that time because we have to pack and freight the orders in bulk to ensure they get to the pickup points on time. Packing takes more than 2 days and freight about a week (depending on where you are).

We try and hold the sale mid month with an end of month pickup but the dates will always move around.

Of course you can also buy available items from BeanBay all month long and use Australia Post Express satchels to get delivery to your door.

Tassie is closest but there is some wet stuff in the way.
Adelaide is next closest but is always after Dennis.
Sydney is next and Dennis is always the first in Sydney to get it.
QLD gets theirs about the same time as Adelaide
Tassie takes nearly as long as Perth and costs just as much!

All we can do is send them on time, the rest is up to the couriers!

In fact we land nearly all of them to the pickups before the scheduled dates as a rule.
