Hi there,
We are a new company who have set up in Maynooth, Co.Kildare and we would like to ask you for a few moments of your time to tell you a little bit about our service.
We wanted to contact you as you may be interested in what we offer. We received your contact details from my first cousin, Elaine Horan who is married to Brian Minogue, the nephew of one of your members, Michael Minogue. We understand your members shop from the USA, looking for parts and equipment that they cannot find in Ireland or perhaps they can find for cheaper in the US. I will explain our concept and how it works.
Our business ShopUSA strives to provide Irish users with greater choice when it comes to online shopping. By registering on our site – http://www.shopusa.com/shopusa/ireland/new_user/
Irish customers can buy products from any seller in the USA, including eBay, Amazon, Walmart, or in your case any Car part retailer who sells online, among thousands of other sellers – even from sites that do not offer international shipping.
ShopUSA users are provided with a unique USA receiving address free of charge, which means that international customers are treated in exactly the same manner as customers residing in the USA.
Whenever customers buy goods online, the seller will ship the product to our warehouse in Virginia Beach, VA. Once the package is received, it will be forwarded to the customer’s overseas address here in Ireland.
The ShopUSA calculator generates totally transparent, all-inclusive pricing.
v The calculator allows customers to determine the total cost of their product, including international shipping, toll, VAT and An Post delivery here in Ireland.
Due to the fact that ShopUSA ships in bulk to hundreds of customers overseas, it can offer much lower prices than the stores themselves and other courier services (FedEx, UPS, DHL). We have made comparisons with the named competitors and they are visible on our site.
The current conversion rate as of this mail is –
1 Euro = 1.4894 U.S. dollars –
Thus this is a great opportunity to shop from the USA.
v We are also offering our registered customers an added bonus. Upon making a second purchase as of – 04/05/2011 – we will be offering 15 bonus points. This will again lead to plenty of savings!
See our website for more details – www.shopusa.com.
We are also in contact with the Midland American Auto Club and they appear to be very enthusiastic about our service. We have already made a number of sales to their members.
If you feel like you may be interested in our service please do not hesitate to contact us or possibly give us your contact details and we will call you. We feel like this is a great opportunity for Irish shoppers.
Kind Regards,
Niall Horan
