Location: Minneapolis, MN | I use a couple different bulletin boards for non-muskie related other hobies. I notice on those boards that the users organize many group buys to pool demand and get much better prices for items. With the price of electronics, tackle, tackle storage, etc. getting way up there, I wonder why the muskie community hasn't joined together to do more group buying? If you are interested in pooling demand for items, what is it you are looking for? I'd be interested in a new big screen Lowrance unit and a new Minn Kota Trolling motor. |

| I think this is an excellent idea. I would love to get a break on high quality ball bearing swivels, Stringease snaps, high quality treble hooks, 80# PowerPro and some other items. Sign me up. |

| Great idea Joe, let's organize some buying power, not that our numbers will be great.

Location: oswego, il | Somebody on this board had already done this a few times ordering the bucher split rings for a better deal. It could be done with other merchandise too. |

| I know of a few guys that did that with a boat company...
7 of them got together, all ordered the same boat...and got several thousand dollars off of each boat due to ordering 7 of them at once. |

| Great idea for boats,marine etc,,But I hope we dont forget how very,very, in fact incredibly generous places like Thorne Bros,Rollie & Helens,Reeds,Pastikas,Smokeys,Guides choice,etc have been sponsoring and donating to Muskies inc and other muskie causes,,I guess I dont mind spending a little bit more suporting them only about 5-6 true muskie shops trying to make a living |

| Definitely some Eagle Claw 774s!!!!! Other high quality hooks would be great, too. I also like the idea of other terminal tackle supplies - split rings, swivels, String Ease snaps.
In short, I'm in! |
