:O :O A *whole* penny!! That's a travesty, and I expect to get overnight delivery if you're pulling that kind of scam! </sarcasm>
No, but seriously, these are dirt cheap already - that's hardly an issue. And if the forums riot on you over it, then just charge $9.99 for a stand, and $0.01 for the shipping. 99-centing is always a good tactic, right? ;)

Here's the thing... shipping is probably gonna take 5-12 days overseas anyway, so another day or two won't make a huge difference...

EDIT: tags on this thread get better all the time.

And to whoever tagged this thread as ''complex pricing structure'', I tell him/her to go and have a maths class. I'm wondering, if your prices are ''complex to understand'' what would be a simple pricing structure.
Some people are stupid.

fake, where's your website .. ? Do the people who made reserves will be contacted by you, or do we have to order from your website ?

I suspect it was a joke. The pricing structure is far from incomprehensible, but the evolution of it as the thread went on was probably their point: ironically pointing out the relative change in complexity over a short period of time.

Do you still have any leftover acrylic stands?

Joke or not, I thought it was hilarious, as was the punning in "taps into beer money"... taps... I see what you did there.

I am PMing people with purchasing information now. It may take up to two hours, because the PM system is rate-limited.

So excited to ship these babies out!

I think your nick is hilarious. If this thread is what your nick says, including all the pictures, the videos, 257 posts, the story, the book scanner, the laser cutter, the angry neighbors, the air filter, the black paint, the acrylic version, the web shop, the pricing structure and everything - it's so damn well done that some director at Hollywood should make a movie about it. Put your nick on top of that, and I'd gladly pay my five stands just to see you take off to brazil with the money! When I get my stands, it's almost like I'm going to become a bit sad over the fact that it was all for real. :D

See, in reality it is for the Nokla N900 this stand, hence the nick "fake"

:D
