From the sound of it (see this thread), shipping is going to be a reasonably major expense for the 914 R/C body group buy.

Is anyone interested in getting a SF Bay Area deal going on this? It could cut down on the shipping quite a bit. (Even more, if the car bodies stack or "nest" nicely!) One person would buy N of them from Ed, and the locals would stop in and get them in person... This would also cut down on the "hassle factor" for Ed, so it could be a win/win.

I could be the guy "in the barrel", but it would probably be better if someone who actually had a Pay Pal account were to bo the guy.

And, of course, this is all at the sufferance of Ed, who is being nice enough to do the whole distributorship thing for us.
