Batterez!

I just measured it out on some paper, albeit in 2D and estimating the depth with a broken ruler at 15cm (all I have access to right now) and maybe it is right, they aren't as big as I imagined.

To cover my ass I'm going to re-confirm the quote, and send the dude those measurements and tell him to work it out and quote accordingly!

Well spotted! -facepalm-

Something doesn't ring right to me though.

1 cubic metre is the same as a cube with 1m sides all the way round right?

I havent seen the goods in person but I cant imagine them fitting into a space a a tenth of the above. 0.8 sounded about right but 0.08 sounds too small. I could be wrong.

My supplier gave me those dimensions without an indication of units, but I took an educated guess at metres.

Just to make things clearer, here is what I am shipping, direct from the manufacturer as opposed to my supplier:

http://www.apc.com/resource/include/...?base_sku=RBC7

I'm no good at visualising this stuff, I need to see it. But I cant confirm 100% til I have bought the goods...which I'm not doing until my client confirms the order, based on this shipping quote!

0.08m^3 isn't really that small. It's 80,000cm^3. Or a cube 43cm on each side.

Even to have a cube 50cm on each side would only be 0.125m^3.

When you put it like that, sounds much more reasonable!
