Nate, I would participate in a group buy just for the halibut. I have no
specific need for the them now, but they look darn handy. Of course, I will
buy 200 1% resistors no matter how many I need because that is the break
point where the price drops from 9 cents to 2 cents. :) I think it is
worthwhile to get the price down to something at least reasonable. If you
get enough interest, you can put me down for 5 sets (or a 10 of you really
need me to) at that price plus appropriate shipping expenses.

50 sets of 4, and the price (1.85) is for a set of 4 studs, 4 washers,
and 4 thumbscrews (enough to mount one unit.) -Nate
