I have been interested in this band since I first found them on the QQ forum, and specifically the stuff with Steve Hackett, but the shipping from Hungary seemed excessive to me, so I balked at a big purchase. However, it appears that the band markup on shipping is substantial. It looks like if it were shipped within Hungary, the shipping is cheap, and then a friendly Hungarian might send it along to the USA for cheaper.

Would any other USA QQ members like to get in on a pooled order? I will place the order through Grill Bill, who has graciously agreed to send the whole order to me. I can then part it out here and send it along to the recipients at cost. I have plenty of packing, so I would just add local postage.

If anyone is interested, please just post back to this thread. If it looks like there is enough interest I will get the final quotes and post them back.

If interested you can look over titles with descriptions here: http://www.djabe.hu/diszkografia_eng.html

I am not asking anyone to buy the whole set. These are just reference numbers for the available titles. People can order what they want through me, I will compile and manage the shipments, and I will pay up front and collect via PayPal on the back side, then ship.

So to participate:

1. You live in the USA and have PayPal access
2. Select titles from the above list and post them here.
3. I will verify pricing before placing the order. We will not know the exact shipping until the order is shipped from Hungary, and until I prep the USA packages, but I will charge COST ONLY with no fees for handling or packaging. I will divide the Hungarian shipping cost by the number of discs, so that will be spread equally.
4. When I receive the order I will verify your USA mailing address and prepare the package.
5. I will check the USA shipping, tally the order and ask for a PayPal payment.
6. You pay and I ship the music, then you receive your music.

I will leave this thread open to new participants until Halloween. Then I will finalize the order and initiate the shipment. I am not sure how long the shipment will take from Hungary, but I am guessing you will have music by Thanksgiving.

From what I have heard, these mixes are very active. I am looking forward to adding some of these to my collection.
 
If this initiative works and makes sense then I can help anyone another time, too.

Last call! I will be finalizing this order over the weekend. I will accept new entrants until the end of the day November 1st.

Thanks to all who are participating!
 
As promised, this initiative is moving forward. It is now closed to new participants, and those who signed up above will receive more info as it becomes available. Stay tuned!
 
OK Participants,

Check your PM's. You will find that Grill has rocked the house on this one! The numbers I sent cover everything to my home, and I will add only US shipping to make up the final total. Not sure how long it will take to get the goods here. Will post when I have an update.
 
OK Participants,

Check your PM's. The discs are in and in great shape! I will be preparing shipments today, and will ship today or tomorrow unless holiday travel makes this an unfavorable time for you to receive. I am extremely pleased with the deal Grill was able to swing on his end, so prices should be well below those quoted above. I will tally the final payments AFTER shipping so as to create one transaction. Please be sure when preparing your PayPal to choose "Send money to friends and family." This will then allow them to assess the small payment fee to you and I will receive the full payment you specify.

Grill would be willing to swing this same deal for other members if someone else wants to put together a new initiative for Djabe. Watch the threads for new reviews of these discs.

Thanks to all who have participated, and in particular to Grill who negotiated special pricing for each disc AND hand received the discs from the label to save one shipping expense at his end!

Ken
 
The discs arrived today, playing (enjoying) them right now.
Everything is A-OK.
