Title: Tax Disc Holder Update
Post by: Darth Loo-knee on 30 October 2007, 16:17:01
With the help of a few members of the forum I have been able to find this printers to do us these tax discs.
The Text:
      Omega
        Owners
           Forum    will be on the inside, so you could see that from the passenger seat.

Again let me know what you think.
I will have to order 250 of these minimum, and pay up front so if only 21 people are interested like the Poll said I am afraid I won't be ordering any.

Title: Re: Tax Disc Holder Update
Post by: Crazydad on 30 October 2007, 17:14:24
I think thyt you have found the perfect balance between all the previous options :y

the earlier ones looked ok, but i dont think that i would have put one in my window, as for this version its colour neutral, with the logo at the top.

as said i think that this looks good, and am happy with the Result. Good work :y
Title: Re: Tax Disc Holder Update
Post by: smoothomega on 30 October 2007, 17:22:21
Looks spot on to me, as previously said, colour will go with any colour car.

Suppose Paypal is easier to be honest but never just sent money to anyone so I must read into what we have to do, unless of course someone on here knows.... :y

If you have a pay pal account we just send the payment to your email address that you registered with through our pay pal account.

You would need to pm with your email address.

PM ing my e-mail address is no problem at all.
I would need a PM from the people who are wanting the holders with how many they want.
The Proper name with perhaps their forum name in the PM and their address so I can then post to you.

I have just been looking in Paypal, it is free for you to send money. I can transfer over £50 to my own bank with no fees, but can't understand if I will get charged fee's for recieving money?

Unless we all do mutual agreements not to sell , then he wont get a final valuation fee and we can still leave feedback and complete the sale!

This is all getting complicated now, I will pm him and send him a postal order, if he is happy with that he can cash the p/o as soon as he gets it, I dont mind paying the extra few pence for the order.

Is the third one for the Zafira? That's black as well.  ;)

The problem i've got is my current holder is also the antenna for my phone, so i'm out.  :'(

I'm sure once Jim gets his fitted though he'll be round showing it off, nagging me to get one too.  ::)

Maybe a good excuse for buying another Meega though, one with a normal tax disc holder.

I wonder if Mrs Kev would go for that.  ::)

Looking on Royal Mail site now, cheers TB never thought of that :-[
hope I have this right.
The Tax Disc Holders are £3 including postage for the UK, with a first class stamp which I think is 34pence if so
To Germany & Turkey = 69pence - 34pence = 35p + £3 = £3.35 for a Tax Disc Holder including postage.
To USA = £1.17 -34 pence = 83 pence + £3 = £3.83 for a Tax Disc Holder including postage.  :y

If you have a normal Personal account you can't accept more than 2 CC payements a year :(

If you have a business account.....

On the UK costs (£3) you quote , paypal will charge you (3.4%) £0.10.2 + 0.20 = 30.2 p for every transaction. You will not have to pay to transfer to your bank account providing you transfer more then £50 a time.

May I suggest you add 0.35p to your price ... Uk cost per item £3.35 so that you don't end up out-of-pocket when the paypal charges hit you.....  if all 250 were sold via paypal .... total charges would be about £76 !!! a tidy sum on top of your upfront outlay on our behalf.

Overseas/non-sterling transactions cost more ...  :(

https://www.paypal.com/uk/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_display-fees-outside

just my 2.7 p's worth (inc VAT) :)

No in germany they get little sticker to go on the front and rear number plates

(http://www.numberplates.com/images/worldPlates/plates/DE.jpg)

The top stcker (Front Number Plate)is the Emmisions test that needs to get done every 2 years,

 the bottom one is the Rgistration stamp that is needed on all vehicles, there is no direct visible proof that the Tax has been paid.

The top sticker (rear Number Plate) is a proof for the police, that you have a valid MOT and is renewed with a different colour (with year and month on) representing the year each time you have a new MOT done.

As in the question of Paypal costs, perhaps we should ask Timbuk how he does it, as he sells the Forum Sticker, i know that i paid him via paypal, there was no mention of charges then.

I have also deposited money via paypal several times this year, all to other paypal accounts in the Uk , and never once have i been charged for it.

I probably shouldn't say publically, but Loo-knee has discussed the costings with me, and I'm not convinced he won't be out of pocket.

He was so keen to ensure they were as cheap as possible, and to be seen not profitting from this, that I can assure you it is all 'at cost' wrt buying, posting, and paypal charges.  His costs invloved in phoning around, the travelling around etc are not covered, nor if he doesn't sell every single one....

OK so my Advice would be to sit down, work out ALL the ncost of such a large Project and charge accordingly.

I do not believe for one second, that any one would be annoyed at paying a little more to cover all

Loo-Knees expences.

Loo-Knee tell me how much, and i will pay you, i have said from the beggining that i think that this is a good Idea, and think that you have done a good job.

I have no objection to paying a bit more for them, no one should be out of pocket when trying to promote OOF.

Quite agree, if if it means the 1st batch being a little dearer than future ones.

Don't be out of pocket at all  :y

We want these, not because they are cheap, but because they are OOF  :y

Charge a fiver, I'll still have 2!

In answer to some of your questions:
I have ordered and paid for the Disc's and they should be here for this weekend maybe Monday.
Jamie was then going to put a "Sticky Thread" for us all to see.
Then as soon as I get your PM's with your names (forum names included) and addresses and payment has been made I will post Your Tax Disc Holders in the next post.
For you to send your money to me or anyone using Paypal won't cost you anything, but the reciever has to pay a percentage, this is where TB was thinking of raising the price 25 pence to £3.25 too make sure that I wasn't out of pocket. Also there is a charge for transfering less than £50 to your own bank (so obviously I will be waiting ;))..
As for the second batch we need to get rid of the first batch first :y as I have had to buy the minimum amount of 250 Disc's, so these could last for a while, hopefully not  ;D

Hi Loo-knee,

I've sent you a pm.

Cheers.

I need to check that everyone agrees with Jamie that an extra 25 pence is ok, so it covers my Paypal costs?

So a Tax Disc Holder will then be £3.25.

I need to know as some people are already sending money ;D
Title: Re: Tax Disc Holder Update
Post by: TheBoy on 05 November 2007, 14:55:43
Loo-knee will start a new thread that will become a sticky at the top, stating the details.

I personally think it will have to be £3.25 (or higher) to cover Loo-Knee's costs.


Thread locked now to avoid confusion.  See new thread, http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1194274811 for further information :y

Thanks to everyone for their support, and particularly Loo-Knee for organising and for the up-front costs :y
