At this point we have confirmed orders for 174 boards
Tentative requests for another 102 boards.
And another tentative request for 2 after that.
That makes the total (SO FAR) 278 boards.

Prices are based on a two week fab time.
Current confirmed pricing information suggests a per unit cost of $2.42 each
(this does not include shipping from the vendor)


I think it's fair to say this is a sweet deal.

Now having said all of this there is one thing that is not clear to me YET and that is weather the discount had been applied or not (terms indicate credit pending) I am assuming it is but thought it wise for me to ask them.
I will have more accurate information as soon as I get an answer about that question.

The "ordering phase" for this group buy will close Friday November 26, 2004. Any requests for boards submitted after this date will not be honored

I'd go with a limit to the number of people ordering, up to a stress level you can handle. I would think packing 50 boxes with anything up to 20 boards by the looks of things would be a nuisance (bad enough with 25 little USB boards

that said, I do include components off reels with them)

For 174 boards the final unit cost (shipping not incl.) was $4.22 each. 278 boards for $3.67 each sounds like their normal reduction of the unit price with the more boards you order. Looks like their online system doesn't know about the 2nd order discount transfer, it's thinking you are a first customer with no 2nd order discount.

Try placing a dummy number of boards == 174, if you get final cost per board == $4.22, then the discount is not included for sure. To estimate the real cost with the discount included, substract $350 from the total cost they are giving you now.
