BeanBay June - Sydney Pickup

Re: BeanBay June - Sydney Pickup

Somewhere near Parramatta Station would be ideal -- Im in Blackheath in the Blue Mountains and have to come down by train. But failing Para, Di Bartoli at Bondi Junction is reasonably accessible -=- CoffeeParts at Maroubra is totally out of the question for me.

Re: BeanBay June - Sydney Pickup

Geographically, Parramatta is the centre of the Sydney Metro Area. Very accessible by public transport from most parts of Sydney.

Id also be in for something around Para or northwest side of the harbour. Both Dibartoli and Coffeeparts are a long way from where I am in West Ryde. Though if I had to choose Dibartoli would be the better choice for me.

Hi all
It might be useful to indicate here for the Sydney folks where they work or live roughly. I work at the UTS near Central and live in Thornleigh. I dont drive to work. If CoffeeParts is at Pagewood that would not be good for me. DiBartoli at BondiJn would be better.

If there are snobbers who can pickup the bags by car maybe they can pickup for themselves and some others. It all depends on what suburbs we live/work in.

Good idea. Im in south-west Syd, near Camden. Will likely pick up the beans by car w/in the week after delivery.

I vote CoffeeParts.
Somebody set up us a poll

Re: BeanBay June - Sydney Pickup

Although I havent chosen the pickup option this month - I was glad I didnt last month as Coffeeparts didnt look too easily accessible by public transport. When you dont have a car you dont really want to be lugging kilos of beans on foot and thats when Ill most likely choose the pickup option - when the weight of beans makes the express post too hard to justify. I did pickup from Di Bartoli a couple of months ago and that was very convenient - not too long a walk from the station. I guess theres always the option to PM someone who would be happy to pick-up for me and drop them to me at work or home in the future...

Re: BeanBay June - Sydney Pickup

central to who though? In all honesty, i live a similar distance from both Di Bartoli & Coffeeparts so Im happy to go with the flow. I know that not everyone is in the same situation!

If there was any chance we could get the beans there on the 6th, itll be a nice little birthday present for me! :P

Re: BeanBay June - Sydney Pickup

Maybe somewhere a bit more central may be appropriate?

Re: BeanBay June - Sydney Pickup

Why dont we just alternate each month? I vote for Di Bartoli.

Re: BeanBay June - Sydney Pickup

I like the idea of Coffeeparts (if theyre willing) - its just around the corner from work  

Looking forward to my first BeanBay purchase

Re: BeanBay June - Sydney Pickup

I dont even know if Coffeeparts or DiBartoli are the pickup points!

That is really for you guys to sortout.

It seems silly that someone 1000km away picks the date, time and venue that suits other people. Of course, if the Sydney siders cannot pick a place/time/date then we will make a best guess.

Re: BeanBay June - Sydney Pickup

would there be a specified date/time for pickup from coffeeparts or DiB? Or is that a "sort that out later" kind of thing?

Re: BeanBay June - Sydney Pickup

Bean Bay hasnt opened yet Brett- its at midday. Eveything should come up then.

Re: BeanBay June - Sydney Pickup

Hi Andy,
excuse my dimness in this matter, but how do I proceed- missed out last time! I filled out the form on my postal details this time etc, but when I clicked on green beans, no joy.
Interested in:
Guatemalan Huehhuetenago
Ethiopian  Sidamo Gr 1
Indian Monsoon Malabar AA
Sulawesi Torajah Kalosi
Where are price details, payment options etc?
Not a stroppy letter, just confused.
Thanks
Brett
