[Toronto-dev] looking for people to go in on purchasing 100 X0-1.5s

[Battley]

Ross: 

We have an order in and are waiting on the quote. Are you ready to purchase with money in hand? I don't want to delay our order cause we are on a tight timeline, but if your money is banked and you are ready to go I could ask Adam if they could up the numbers.

Jason: If Morgan can't take them, we could put them immediately to work for training here in Toronto and transfer to kenya or south Africa by summer. I could pick them up.

I am working with a school as well as an orphanage and some children's clubs in Haiti, and am interested in introducing some to the school. Perhaps we can collaborate on our purchase...it depends on the cost of the amount I would be purchasing, as well as the timeline. I am in Haiti until August, however, so that shouldn't be a problem.
