Hello Ira,
Thank you for your interest in our products.
We are pleased to inform you that we have a distributor
in your region. I have included the contact information
at the end of this message for your convenience.
Normally, by contacting them, you can obtain O'Reilly
items as quickly and without the expense of transoceanic
shipping charges.
If you wish to order directly from us, we would be happy
to process the order. My concern is the amount of time
allowed for shipping. We only ship via DHL when sending
items overseas. We have found that shipments by book post,
or other methods that can not be traced, too often result
in loss or delay. We want you to be satisfied with the
handling and shipment of your order, and DHL has proven
the most reliable way of ensuring that. Delivery usually
takes a few days, but can take longer, due to customs in
different countries.
Here is some information that may help:
10 - 19 items ordered = 15% discount from list price
20 - 29 items ordered = 20% discount from list price
30 - 39 items ordered = 25% discount from list price
40 - 49 items ordered = 30% discount from list price
Shipping: 10 items = $ 81.50
15 items = $ 116.50
$ 7.00 for each additional item
You suggested shipping via Federal Express. We can do this,
if you have an account number that we can use.
You may access information about our products,
as well as ordering and shipping information,
on the World Wide Web at http://www.ora.com/
We do include a Certificate of Origin on our airbills.
We also include a commercial invoice, which has shipment
contents, etc.
One suggestion we have is to have one or two copies of the
book available for people to examine, and take orders.
You could then order exactly the number of items you need.
Please contact us again if there is anything else we can
help with, or questions we can answer.
Best Regards,
Ginger Clemons

> Dear Sirs,
>
> On behalf of the Israeli Linux Users group, I need to know
> the bulk rates for orders of assorted books, or the contact of an
> Israeli O'Reily Distributor/Importer. We have a booth in an
> upcoming computer show and would like to be able to sell books as
> a promotion, and to cover booth expenses as we are an
> unofficial, noncommercial voluntary organization. We live on
> external sponsorships and internal donations.
>
> If you have no Israeli distribution agent, here are the details:
> The show will be taking place on April 28th (yes, short
> notice...), but we will need a day to get it out of customs (I
> hope you can supply us with a Certificate Of Origin). Since we
> have no proper estimate on possible sales figures, I guess we will
> limit this show's order to about 30 assorted books (I suppose
> 'Running Linux' and the 'Network Admin's Guide' and the like will
> be good sellers)
>
> Please quote prices + shipment, and availablity of Certificate of
> Origin forms. Shipment will probably be through FedEx (no UPS
> please) as it is the fastest way I know.
>
> I stress again that we must have the books as soon as possible.
>
> Thanks in advance for your cooperation,
