Hopefully people will be getting theirs soon enough so we can get this project rolling.

I checked the site and it seems as if there is no limit in sight (Well, only tried about 8 5-packs) and the shipping is STILL only 8.50 per order. Seems stupid to me why they charge so much to begin with, but if we can take advantage of that, we can all end up paying a little over ONE DOLLAR for shipping, and that's pretty much the cost of the envelope and shipping, plus a little divided into the UPS initial rip-off.

I'd like to get at least 7 others involved, so anyone who is interested please post your name and email me so I can get an official tally. I'd like to wait to get enough people, but I'll probably be ordering araound Nov 8 at the latest..

Are you planning to order the premium stylus even if it does not have a reset pin? From what the CSR's and one supervisor (who was extremely helpful in helping me to track my Visor shipment) have told me, the premium stylus, in its current version, does not have either the reset pin or a screwdriver.

I am interested in ordering the 5-pack also.

I could really care less about the reset pin. Keeping a paperclip or whatever in my wallet really isn't that big a deal to me. Maybe the 5 pack has it, maybe it doesn't.. The springboard slot actually makes a decent holding for such an item.

Got one so far (2 with me).. about 6 more to go before ordering

Er, if ppl from all over order together, wouldn't we have to pay shipping charges to get 'em to eachother again?

Sure we'd have to pay shipping charges again.. REASONABLE shipping.

I'm sure 5 styli can't weigh in at more than a pound.. I'm willing to bet maybe 4 ounces if we're lucky. Throw those in an envelope and we're looking at a little over a buck for each re-shipment.

I've never shipped anything to canada. Send me a package and you can find out how much it costs

I would be interested in either a blue or ice one.

I'm interested too (if you are willing to ship to Amsterdam, The Netherlands)

but I have some bad news... I tried to add the 5-pack to my order (so I would only have to pay shipping once) but they told me I could not order it because they were backordered...

Sign me up! If anyone wants to split a pack with me, I'd like a black, ice, or blue stylus (but so does everyone else, I'll bet). If it's too complicated, I'll just take a whole pack. BizEchilD, feel free to email me with your address so I can know where to send the check. Or better yet, is it up on this forum somewhere?

I'll take one. I don't care what color; I just want to get rid of the default but don't need five.

Count me in. I would like a green one, but the color isn't really that important to me. My e-mail address is [email protected]

Ok.. for those who aren't familiar with the old thread on this, I will NOT be breaking up packs. Too much thinking involved And everyone is going to want eitehr an Ice, blue, or black.. Mostly Ice and Blue, so I'm not going to do it.

I might sell off an Ice or Orange, but I'm not making this a part of it. So this is for full 5-pack orders only. If there were an equal number sold, it would be fine, but since they're not, it might be a bit more difficult.

OK BizEchilD. I'll then take a 5-pack. Count me in on that, please. I didn't realize what the deal was beforehand (sorry). If you're interested in selling an additional single ICE, I'll buy that one, too. Thanks!

Sorry, I didn't realize the full deal either. If it's not too late, then I'll take an entire pack. [email protected]

Not too late at all.. Probably in another week I'll order.

I think so far I have about a total of 4 or 5 people. That should already break down shipping quite a bit for everyone.. but I'll still wait a little while longer.

If you "accidently" received two visors b/c HS screwed up, then they will send you a 5 pack of stylus's. The writing tip unscrews to reveal a reset pin, and the other end unscrews to reveal a small phillips screwdriver. And there isn't a problem sending them in a normal envelope (that is what HS did).

Overall, I like it much more than the original.

Ok.. I'll probably order monday or tuesday, but here's what it looks like so far

That makes 6, so already we're dropping our shipping price initially to 1.70 apiece, down from 8.50. Add maybe an extra $.50 to that for 2.25 total for shipping. if we could get 2 more people at least, this will be a good deal. I plan on shipping them in an envelope if they'll fit, unless anyone has an objection to that (I hope they're somewhat sturdy enough to do that).

So in a few more days I'll place the order. Anyone else is more than welcome to ask me to get them an order.
