Bulk Purchases

aron	Bulk Purchases I wonder if it's possible at some point to organize some sort of bulk purchases for some of the more expensive stuff we use. Things like enclosures, pots etc...?? The interesting thing is that paypal.com makes something like this possible. Perhaps it might go like this: People interested "load" the paypal account with money to a trusted buyer. The buyer goes and orders the large quantity and gets the lower price. People interested send SASE or whatever is necessary to get the stuff shipped back to them. The key is that the buyer only needs to put the stuff in the box and ship it out. Everyone involved benefits..... Of course, it would have to be enough to get a price break either on the purchase or shipping. Aron
