    Hi I did a search for 'shuttles.com' in the forum and none of the posts indicated that a member has gone through with ordering birds from there.

    Has anybody here purchased birds from this site before? I'm looking towards getting some (30-50) tubes of Aeroplane G1130 now that San Diego badminton supply no longer carries it on their web page.

    Any experience from canadians?

    Thanks for all the help.

    DH

    You may want to check Lee's first. They may have better pricing if you're buying in bulk.

    Aeroplane has a Canadian agent, William Huang, in Markham I think but I lost the contact number.

    I called William sometimes ago, but he turned me off by saying I must have a club in order to get the wholesale price. :confused:

    Anyways, if anyone of you are managed to get a good price, please count me in, or we can do a group buy for the Toronto people. :D

    I think he's selling $23.5/dozen for Aeroplane Black Label whereas Lee's is selling $30. Not sure how much of a wholesale price you've in mind?

    Looking for approx 50 tubes/dozen of red label Aeroplane, Lees are selling $18/$19 for per 10 dozen, so I am thinking about $17/$16 for this amount of order.

    I bought 6 tubes of EG1130 (Black Label) from www.shuttles.com. By the time they got to Winnipeg the final price was $26CAD per tube. This included exchange, delivery, duty and taxes. The buying process went very smoothly. I used paypal to pay for them. They are nice birds and I would buy from them again. I wouldn't mind getting them cheeper though!:rolleyes:
