Pretty sure I could do better than 90 bucks plus tax on these. Was that the last price the group buy got?

no prices offered yet, another group got them for $75 for 25+ people. we have 15 so far with was 80 on the other buy. We can probably get up to 25 easily though.

1st I need to know how many folks will be down with this. So far I have 17, including myself, but want to wait about a week to give others some time to get on it. After that I will present the # and then get a response to what the amount will be per person.

*the amount above presented was what it could possibly be but can't promise it. It may work out to be the same, more, or less so I will have to get a complete head count 1st

yea I'm going to get a new one going tomorrow to grab a few folks attention during the day. I will post up the names and color choice they want but keep in mind there could be a possibility of only being black for all.

I really wish that acoldspoon would just shut the **** up.

I'm down for a pair, I could probably rile some interest locally too. White, for me.

I'm pretty flexible with color, but would prefer black or blue. Figure out what colors would be available for a group buy, then I'll decide.

Should prob. make a new thread w/ a poll. I'll be down mostly for black, maybe red. Prefer Toshi singles, but doubles will do.

a poll is not ideal because I need to match what color folks want to themselves. Plus everyone who takes part in the poll may not go along with the buy. good idea though.

so far up to 20 orders now.

I would certainly commit to paying for black singles.

edit: Any color will do, black ideal. Count me in for singles!

since the demand has been so far higher for the doubles than the singles, i'm going to deal with the doubles 1st. again I'm not sure this whole deal thing will go down but I at least want to test the waters.

so far we are up to 27 heads

You left me out. I'm down for a pair, possibly more if I get some people interested.

The thing is, there will have to be more than just this thread before non-forum members on-board.
