USA: half-price ($56) pink Bangle.js and cheap shipping!

[gfwilliams]

Hi! I have a bit of an odd request, but someone recently purchased a pink Bangle.js in the USA. As far as we can tell it came without a bit of protective film on the heart rate sensor and so has some minor scratches on it, and there's no tape over the middle two SWD contacts - because of this they want to return it:

Otherwise it's new, undamaged and working perfectly (including the heart rate sensor). It seems a shame to pay to send it all the way back to the UK.

So - would anyone like to purchase this, half-price? All you'd have to do is arrange a shipping label from New York.

Is this still available? I might have found another future Bangle.js enthusiast interested in purchasing this. And how would the purchase work--would one just need to send payment and a shipping label to whomever has it in New York?

Hi! yes - it is still available. I think ideally the buyer would just email me a postage label with their address on, and then I'd email that to the sender. In the USA do you need to put the sender's address? They almost certainly wouldn't want to share that with someone they don't know, so if that's the case I could just buy the label here, and then you just send me the price+whatever shipping is?

Please could you email gw@pur3.co.uk and we can work this out offline?

Please could you send me an email @banglejsdev? I don't have access to your contact details, just your GitHub username

Hi @gfwilliams , just in case my email ended up in your spam folder I thought I'd better mention here that I sent you an email yesterday with a method for allowing the sender to send it to me anonymously. Thanks!

[gfwilliams]

Ahh - thanks! Just spotted it in spam!

please do more of these if other people return. i really need to buy a bangle. i missed it by a week!

[gfwilliams]

Yes, sorry - I'm still waiting for a reply. If you're ok @banglejsdev then sure, if @Techbrology could give me an email at gw@pur3.co.uk - it is a pink Bangle though, not black.

It's pretty rare that we have returns like this where the Bangle is basically ok, but we do have some here where we've noticed minor issues and so have put them aside and not sold them as new. At some point we'll list them on the shop at a cut down price, but unfortunately there's still postage/duty to worry about.

[Techbrology]

alright, i emailed you.

[banglejsdev]

That's great-- @Techbrology , hope you enjoy your Bangle--they are truly wonderful devices!

[Techbrology]
