Default Any interest in buying some inexpensive Chinese microphones?

Well, that's the tradeoff in risk that you take for the low price. On the
other hand, all three mics might be just fine and you would then have a
pretty good deal. No one is hiding the ball here. As Jim said, there are
lots of good reasons not to particpate. If your risk tolerance isn't
sufficient, you should pass on the opportunity. Check out the Yahoo Group
FAQ and see if the proposed deal works or you or not.

So jim, how long have you been selling mics?


vbg Not me! I haven't even decided for sure if I'm going to buy any.
But it is an interesting and increasingly common phenomenon - the use
of group buying power to reduce prices and eliminate middlemen. Once
again, the internet is changing the way business is executed, and in
ways that aren't always anticipated.


These aren't commodity items like toasters. What if you buy 3 mics and
2 sound terrible. Or die after 6 months.What have you saved?
