Pellet order from Krale.

The bulk of my order was for the 18.13gr .22 cal JTS which were 14.04 euro per 500 equivalent or roughly NZ$26 plus shipping. We're finding that they are more accurate than JSB and probably as good as, if not better than, the Air Arms which now retail for $59 here. I did also get a couple of tins in .177 cal but at this stage they don't appear to have any advantage over the AA, JSB or FTT pellets that I can see.

FX King 600 .22
FX Dreamline Classic .22
Diana Outlaw .22
Air Arms S410 .22
Cometa Fenix 400 .177
Weihrauch HW50 .177
Crosman 2240 Custom .22

So when I was setting up the order my cart was showing 45 euros freight which jumped up to 90 euros as the number of tins grew. I thought bugger that and started removing tins until it had dropped back to showing 45 again. That was at roughly 30 small tins which is what I purchased. During the payment process the shipping dropped back to 30 euros and I did think of going back and adding some more but decided not to push my luck. I'm glad I didn't as 30 small tins doesn't sound a lot but is actually quite heavy and if I'd ordered 40 as I'd originally intended then I'm pretty sure they would have completely collapsed the cardboard box. This happened with my first order a while back, the packaging had collapsed by the time it arrived in Germany and had to be sent back to Krale. They sent me another lot but only after they had received the damaged ones back and this drew the process out considerably.

Buying the small tins is only a little more expensive than the equivalent numbers in the larger tins but they are more resistant to shipping damage in my view.

It's definitely worth ordering them from Krale but you need sufficient numbers to offset the shipping cost without going overboard with the numbers for the reasons explained above. The main ones I’m bringing in are the JTS Dead Centres as they're not available here and perform as well as, if not better than, the JSBs - and at a significantly lower cost.

Hi Pete.

Freight on the 30 small tins was 30 Euros although the checkout said 45 prior to actual payment.

My contact is anna@krale.shop

I've sent her the details relating to packaging of my last shipment but I've yet to here back from her. Sometimes it can take a few days to get a response.

Hi Kiwi,
Thanks for your message.
I'd definatly like to get the reps name from you please.
There are now 4 guys who are keen to combine an order, so I'm sure we can get to 20 tins.
What did the shipping come to, or was there a minimum spend value for free shipping?
Thanks,
Pete.

Walk quietly, but carry a big stick.

yea I'd be interested in getting a few tins.

I'm after some .177 and .22.

	Ive heard good things about these JTS pellets. I've shot through literally thousands of JSB 15.89gr Hades in my .22 Wildcat and cant complain about them, but I guess there is always room for improvement! I not opposed to trying an 18.13gr pellet, so I think I'll try a tin or two. Any one else want to get in on the order, last chance...

	Gee, you got a good price. How did you wrangle that? Mind you I didn't ask, so I got std charges.

	My order a year ago in July I paid $14.01 Euro per tin (500 pellets 18 grn JSB) and $50.00 Euro shipping So I paid around $30 NZD per tin landed in my hand. So I don't think you will get free shipping, as I remember if I was to order more and the weight went up, the shipping went to $75 Euro. Way better value than buying locally unfortunately.
