questions for steve regarding group purchases

[Shawn]

This is for the Colorado group purchase (10 pack plus 1 debug board). Our Utah friend is paying via PayPal and we figured if we could make the lump payment that way, we would. If not, I just need to know so we can get all the money into one place (: 

Thanks, 
Shawn S

 Well
How are we going to pay anyway?
Talking about single and group.

I’m not sure
about the paypal. A
long while back when I suggested paypal there was a backlash from 
concerned
people who thought that paypal
was evil because it was American. I’ll check on that.
( not the
evil part, the paypal part)
 
WRT to one
shipment, if you order a 10
pack and debug board  I would be surprised it was split into two
shipments.

Hi
steve, 

thanks for the updates. I have a few additional questions on group
purchase: 

Can we pay the group payment via paypal? 
If a member of our group wants to purchase the debug board, can we
order that
at the same time (and have it shipped together), or should he order
that on his
own?

Thanks!

The 10 pack will have to be ordered by one person. It will ship to that
persons location.

Now, how will people arrange to do this? I thought long and hard about
this.
And then I realized that some people will find one way, one guy pays and
others promise to pay him. Some people will find another way, half up
front
and half on delivery. Some people will do contracts. Some people will
just
choose to do a single phone.

steve, what methods are being considered by openmoko for group
purchasing?

most of us do now know the other members of a group and would like
some security that the group organised is not able to run off with the
money - are openmoko willing to engage in purchases via escrow agents?
or is it a case of 'sort it our amongst yourselves, all we want is a c
card number or paypal account'? if the latter is the case, is there
anything/anyone openmoko or anyone else here can recommend for making
sure things go smoothly?

thanks
