Default Re: 10th Official Tournament Fundraiser Discussion

Rough estimates (yeah, I was bored and looked into it) would put the coins on the mid to high end cost of $3 USD per coin, weighing 5 ounces (140 grams) each (also probably on the high end) being shipped from NANJING, 210000 CHINA (randomly selected city near one of the producers of said coins) to DAWSON CREEK, V1G9Z9 CANADA (also randomly selected BC CAD address, since I don't know where Prawn lives) residential address regular UPS worldwide shipping would bring this estimate to around $560 USD + customs costs if there were any, + 90 coins * $3 a piece ($270 USD). That would amount to over $800, which if you think about it 80 available to purchase * $10 minimum/coin would barely cover costs, and you're relying on people's generosity and want of the token songs to fill in additional donations.

Well thought out I must say, you guys really did a good job.

(and if I'm wrong on values, feel free to correct with a simple nope or actual values, I'm just speculating on the high end out of curiosity)
