Ok, less than 5 days to go join the group-buy of the PAB sample sets. Right now (december 8th, noon GMT - 5 hours), 5 persons committed themself to buy the sample set, lowering the price to $809
As Chris said n another thread:
To reach the next step, which lower the price to $699, 35 more persons must commit to buy it; to reach Chris's suggested price ($600), 95 more persons are required.... both numbers seems hard, if not impossible, to reach, but who knows, many of us might jump in the group-buy knowing that the final price would be lower.
Personally, with the value of our Canadian dollar, $899 + shipping is too much money for me. $699 still is a lot of money.... at $599 + shipping I would be willing to get it.
So, here are my questions, and please answer it seriously (as if you were commiting yourself).
Please answer both questions with YES or NO
If everyone answer honestly, we will have a good idea of the final selling price.
If you already bought (commit) the sample set, please don't answer these questions since we don't want to count you twice.

- If the PAB samplet had a selling price of $699, would you commit yourself to buy it (by december the 12th)?
If the PAB samplet had a selling price of $599, would you commit yourself to buy it (by december the 12th)?
