If you are patient you can sometimes find them on sale for under 40 bucks each, including shipping, from PBK.
p.s. WTF does PSA mean?? I can only think of Prostate Specific Antigen, which is a blood test for a protein made by prostate tissue.
p.p.s. nevermind, I figured it out....Public Service Announcement

Actually, if you're buying Contis your money is going to a German company regardless of where you bought it from. Rubble, PBK, BTD, etc. are merely resellers.

So BTD doesn't make a penny on products I buy from them? How do they stay in business?

$47.50 for the 23mm on amazon, ships free. Shows up in a day or two as opposed to 2-10 weeks from PBK.

The point is that your "buy American" stance doesn't make as much sense when you're talking about retailers versus manufacturers.

I am sure their employees will tell you that buying from BTD puts food on the table and pays the rent.

For US shipper, I found Planet Cyclery on eBay has a good price, $87.95 + free shipping for a pair of GP4000S (boxes not included to save on shipping). If you want the boxes, add $8.73 for shipping. If you want 10 tires, Planet Cyclery has a deal $429 shipped, and there's also the option to "make an offer" to get a lower price too. I haven't bought tires from them, but I did buy something else and it was shipped very quickly (ordered weekend and shipped out Monday) and arrived quickly too (arrived Wednesday). Edited to add: I think this is the same company as the one selling on Amazon.
I like to support my LBS, but $75 each is too rich for my blood... I do buy other stuff there tho!

I was just looking for these in 25's about an hour ago and didn't see prices like this. Ordered from Ribble. BTD is too expensive for most things. oops they are $57 there now but Ribble is the same price as quoted above. See? ;-)
