Maybe we could start a page on the wiki where people could list items  
they want from Parallax (or other companies), and when the total gets  
over a certain amount, the instigator could place the order and then  
everyone splits the shipping and handling.

But of course that would mean that someone would have to pay for the  
whole order, and accept on faith that everyone else is honest and  
will pony up for their parts when the time comes.

Just a thought -- R
