I agree, filter if you don't want to see it. I personally at worst don't mind, and at best find it useful.<br><br>

<br>#1 - Don happened to put in for several parts I happen to have on reels of 5000 - and because it was on-list (and not right at the cutoff time), I was able to offer to bring those parts, saving about $13.<br><br>#2 - Eric suddenly had to cancel, and Don was able to take over the group buy, so I was able to get $12 in chips without the shipping and small order surcharge.<br>
<br>I believe these are the kinds of group cooperation results that are only really feasible by having this stuff on-list. I know there haven't been a lot of times (yet) when anyone has saved by consolidating to a quantity discount - but the idea is there.<br>
<br>It's also kind of interesting seeing what parts other people are getting.... perhaps more interesting than hundreds of naked bicycle riders?<br><br><br>-Paul<br><br><br>_______________________________________________<br>
