If you PM him via NASIOC, he should cut you a bit of a deal since he avoids the eBay seller fees. I bought a set this way for $60.

He got them to me quickly.

They are really nicely made. He even takes the time to seal off the ends of the square tubing.

I thought they were a better product than the TIC braces which sell for close to $100.

Go ahead and contact him to see if he might be interested in doing a group buy. How many people would it take and what kind of discount would he be willing to offer?

Personally though, I think he might decline as the price on these is already really low to begin with, but couldn't hurt to ask. I'd be down to get a set.

I mean really! The guy's braces are first quality and 2/3rd's the cost of similar ones already.

He has two sets on eBay now for 65.95 shipped; Item numbers: 110433646871 and 110433646982

Hardly worth the time and effort putting together a GB to save what, Five bucks?
