Are there any Toronto & Southern Ontario Coffeegeeks wanting to try out Intelligentsia espresso coffees, but haven't because of the exorbiant shipping costs for 1 or 2 lbs by UPS 2nd Day AirŪ, specifically Black Cat & Kid O? Please check me out below for details &/or email me off of the forums for full details.
I'll respond back to you by email, or personally telephone you. {:-)
Anywhere from 3 - 10 or more people wanting to give this a go is fine.

Hey Craig. Yah great! As I mentioned before, it was ME that turned you on to the newly arrived KID-O. You then went to that event and tried it for the first time and we do value your tasting results! I like a brighter and lighter properly roasted bean for espresso myself. How do you like it? I also do love the concept of us Canadians going in on items that we may all be interetsed in but may have a big delivery charge. I would love to get a pound of the Kid-o. Can we arrange when you will be available to come on over and we can try a shot or 2 on my new sweety (andreja preem). Talk to you soon. Many thanks Craig!!! Ray

I absolutely LOVE the Kido O, & what Mark says here is exactly what I perceived & think also: "Re: Intelligencia's Kid 'O' Espresso Blend?" , & my post 5 posts down from Mark's post. {;-)

Ray, I can't talk business on the forums, so I'll be emailing you after this post about the particulars, but I can say that no, it won't be! {;-)

Anytime! Wow, thanks Ray, I'd be honored to meet you again, see your pride & joy machinery, & have a shot or 2, & talk machines, grinders, coffees, etc, anything!
I'm ready to pull the trigger Jerr! {:-D It's late & I'm tired (roasting all evening), & I think we have 4 people now. We have more than the minimum (I could of done that just with myself! {:-D ) I'm sending you a cut, copy & paste of 2 email replies to you, to explain better. I need to what & how much of what, you want.

P.S. I'll state the obvious here, in case you're all wondering. The roasted coffee's are being shipped directly to me by Intelly UPS 2nd Day AirŪ & will be the Canadian price with shipping included (all inclusive). The coffee's are for direct pickup from my residence, Ray in your case it would be shipped twice, which would be crazy as well as pretty pricey!!
I'll need exactly how many lbs each & of what types, Black Cat, Kid O, etc. If you haven't already, please give me your phone #'s so I can contact you all, &/or call me please!

Hi Craig,
This is my first post as a long-time lurker (and learner). I would be interested in a pound of either blend. If possible, kindly email me with the details.
