  12. Has it occurred to anyone else that the people who read rec.woodworking
  13. have a large collective buying power?
  14.  
  15. Wouldn't it be nice if we could negotiate with one company that we
  16. buy all our equipment/supplies from that company in exchange for
  17. a price break?  They'd be getting a very high volume of orders/
  18. income, in view of the high amount of disposable income that 
  19. "Gary Preckshot's computer buddies" (reference Grizzly Bandsaw)
  20. seem to have.
  21.  
  22. I understand that there is not one supplier that has everything,
  23. but I'm sure we could narrow it down quite a bit, and we wouldn't
  24. have to waste so much bandwidth looking for the best price, where
  25. can I find this, etc.
  26.  
  27. What thinks the net?
