Wow, I think I'm going to have to get one of those.

No matter the cost.

Benner · **Reply #17 on:** August 06, 2008, 09:53:15 PM

$40?! Seems a bit steep.

Benner · **Reply #18 on:** August 06, 2008, 09:55:44 PM

I've just looked and you even get a DVD with it.

Benner · **Reply #19 on:** August 08, 2008, 07:33:34 PM

Grant Lamontagne · **Reply #21 on:** August 09, 2008, 10:01:28 PM

It's not- we saw them at SHOT, an in fact, they seemed pretty flimsy.

Tarrodemierda · **Reply #22 on:** August 09, 2008, 10:58:08 PM

yeah but i dont understand on what basis the s&h is so hard.

today i searched for matchcase and found this one K & M matchcase @ ebay,it weights nothing but s&h was 24 euros.

jzmtl · **Reply #23 on:** August 09, 2008, 11:01:32 PM

Probably automatically calculated United Piece of S**t shipping fee, maybe email them see if they can do something more reasonable.

Spoonrobot · **Reply #24 on:** August 10, 2008, 01:49:59 AM

I want one too. I missed the first wave for sale because I had a final exam but I plan to get one once they're back in stock. It looks like a cool gadget to play around with.

Benner · **Reply #25 on:** September 06, 2008, 07:41:01 PM

Just in case anyone in the UK is interested, the Baliyo will soon be able here http://baliyo-uk.com for a far more reasonable price.

jzmtl · **Reply #26 on:** September 06, 2008, 07:47:34 PM

So that's $40 shipped, even cheaper than u.s. price?

Actually, it's closer to $46 including shipping. I know they were for sale in the US for $35 but I don't know about the shipping.

jzmtl · **Reply #28 on:** September 06, 2008, 09:39:29 PM

Huh, I got about 40.3 USD from 22.75 GBP, and from the site it includes everything. Intro price in u.s. is $35 but maybe they'll raise it later.

Wow, you're right.

It's amazing how much things can change in such a small time.
