Good evening bb.odenthal,

I am sorry,  your message arrived after the order was placed along with
several other responses.  I'm one to two orders short of being able to
place a third order on the heels of the second.

It turns out that the 15% discount was prohibited for the Pis (the
distributor has marked the list $35 price as a 'sale' price so it doesn't
qualify for the discount) so the price will not differ between the second
and third rounds.

I'll place a third order if we can get another taker to qualify for the
free shipping.  One full set or two PIs put us over the limit.

Third order so far is:

Bryan Backer
Dustin Laurence
BB.Odenthal
