Hello the List!
Some months ago the URL for Herbie's Spices was posted to the list.
http://www.herbies.com.au/
Needing more Cubebs last week, I took the plunge and used their online
ordering system - here's what I found!
Seems to be a good range - they have Cubebs, Long Peppers, Mastic, Sumac and
Saffron for reasonable prices.
Ordering takes place through Ozevillage - one of those multi-group service
systems. Fairly straight forward although the mandatory field of
"telephone" seemed to be set to straight numbers only (no ()or words
accepted when I used it) and the system auto-reset to "Victoria" as state of
origin and I had to email Herbies - herbie at herbies.com.au - to clarify my
postal address.
Shipping costs for my order was $8.50 - but as delivery was via an
"Overnight priority" post bag, I'm not complaining (and it depends on weight
of order - I had a couple of bags of spices plus a 100ml bottle of Rose
water - so it wasn't precisely light.
Delivery was incredibly prompt - my order was placed Thursday lunchtime and
I received it this morning (Monday).
I don't know how the GST will affect their prices - will advise after the
1st July (and my next order) :-)
