Yeah, I've been watching that thread, seems like a good deal but I just don't have a need for more stones in the same grit ranges that I already have covered. I'd probably jump on board if the 20% mark is reached.

I took it as a joke. I think a group buy is a good idea. The only stone I don't have yet on the glass stones is the 30K, and I'm on the fence about getting it.

Craftsman Studio, AFAIK is still offering free shipping on Shapton glass stones. With the 20% group buy, I assume there would be shipping? Factoring that in, there would be an actual savings on less then I would assume.

IF we would get 20% and the shipping wouldn't negate any savings, pencil me in for the 30K. That beating heart under the floorboards has driven me mad for long enough!!! ;-)

You need to lighten up buddy, that was just a light-hearted joke.

Sorry to offend you It REALLY was a joke. As far as I am concerned there's nothing wrong with trying to get a larger discount by getting more participants for a group buy.

Please accept my sincerest apologies.

And here I just ordered a 1k, 4k, 8k and 16k shapton a few days ago! Guess I just missed it, I didn't think they were too expensive though, was like $300 shipped for all the stones. Hope you guys get a good discount :)
