i'm having a tough time parsing the google translated page, but assuming that what you say is true - wow. i... wow. i would pretty much sell my soul to take advantage. however - i've had an interesting july, to put it lightly. i currently find myself living in a friends living room, with no car and no income besides the bitcoin mining i have. thus, i need every satoshi for food right now. i'd be happy to organize another group buy at a much lower price though! would help me out a great deal, obviously. depends on the specifics of course, but i could happily see doing orders for .75 above the cost of purchase, with fedex shipping via ground for all orders (screw the post office!) though given past experience, i'm inclined to limit it to US only - i've got nearly 1000 in customs bills from the last group buy i still haven't paid. my own fault, of course. i am not asking for donations or anything. so yea - assuming this is true - pending FC verification - .175 per stick, shipped asap via fedex ground to continental US. escrow by john k if desired which obviously incurs his fee. i'm sure there's some limit or catch or such on this, but i have no further info and am pulling this out of my butt. is there interest, or more info around?

I'm in. I've felt from day one that these things were worth maybe $25 max and probably less if volumes get high. Although I've not read the links, I don't think you would technically need to solicit authorization(s) from the group or involve us, but it is the ethical thing to do and you seem to have an unusual propensity to do the right thing (which, parenthetically, obviates my desire for escrow as does the low value I being a single unit buyer.) You have authorization from me to buy a matching one to the one you delivered to me and either sell it yourself and pocket the proceeds, or I will buy it for 0.2 BTC. I've yet to even bother to power up the one you sent me

In fact, I'd pick up 3 @.175 if I can take the place of someone from overseas.

I'd definitely be down for an order of another 20 through the group-buy. Will be looking forward to ordering another 50 additionally through FC @ 0.1 if/when this becomes official.

it seems the lower price of .6 btc is confirmed (though not from the cat!) with coupons for previous buyers. i've messaged him to see how this effects this group buy.
