That's it, really. CAT me if you want one. I can't imagine P+P would be more than a pound, if that, they are pretty light. I would want paying by Paypal.

LOL no they are brand new from the manufacturer. Bizarrely though I can only order them once a month so if you want one in a hurry buy elsewhere

(Moony next order is on Tues, I can order you one then?)

Yes wait till I have weighed it then I'll tell you how much to send for postage as well FMF. I don't need payment up front as I know you.

Pruni I am in a Suma wholesale group and we can get all sorts of things at wholesale prices by ordering in bulk together. I just spotted that they sell Mooncups and this seemed like a good way to share the wonder of Mooncuppery with MNers.

CaliFanjo you could probably auction yours on eBay

Ok FMF and anyone else, I may have cocked up a little

I think they are subject to VAT

I think it is only 5 % though which would make it about 60p more. I guess the total price with postage is going to be about £15 so sorry if I have misled you. I am going to order at least one this month (or more if people want me to) and then will have a definite price for the future. I think it will still be cheaper than you can get elsewhere but do look around and check.

What is a Suma wholesale group? I think I have Suma brown rice in the cupboard, is that connected?

Pruhoohooohoooooni · 08/10/2006 21:51

I ask because MIL and I are looking for some way to buy wholesale, esp eco detergents etc

foulmoonfiend · 08/10/2006 22:07

well I can't get one locally (i tried in our Boots and was subjected to a very embarassing interrogation by crabby staff member who leapt away from me as if I had asked for in-store labia piercing when I explained what a moon-cup was!)

So I'm still in

Pruni, yup. Suma are a co-op wholesalers dealing in wholefoods, green toiletries etc., and will sell to anyone who opens an account with them and orders £250 + worth of goods. (If you are north of Glasgow it needs to be £300, sorry can't remember where you are based)

There may already be a collective in your area who group together to order from them. It is so cheap, and worth organising a group if you don't want to spend the full £250 yourself. Look on www.suma.co.uk for more details.

Last chance to get one this month - I need to order by tomorrow so CAT me or post on here if you want one.

I'll bump this again next month near the order time, otherwise.

How droll that it happens to be once a month

I didn't know you were a bucket-wearer, Franny!

Shall I get you one, Greeny? No?

OP posts:
foulmoonfiend · 09/10/2006 19:47

foulmoonfiend · 09/10/2006 19:48

FrannyandZooey · 09/10/2006 19:54

FMF yes but I have ordered what I presume is the correct size for you - the bucket version, for those of us with fanjos that have seen the world

OP posts:
foulmoonfiend · 10/10/2006 18:03

what are you suggesting????

(well, ok, I've had 2 kids 'naturally' so, it ain't going to be cherry-like down there ahem )
(size 8 everywhere else though, she adds hurridly)
