I think you forgot the cost of processing individual PayPal payments which is
not trivial.
But I think rather than questioning Todd (in absentia, after all it was a
suggestion by others that the price be raised because we're concerned that he
doesn't lose money on this) perhaps, Abe, you'd like to take on the fulfillment
part of the process after Todd gets the master made? Perhaps you can even bring
it in for 4 dollars and be a hero to everyone!

If it was *our* project, sure. But it's not. It's *Todd's* project. Why jiggle
his elbow this way publicly? I think it's not warranted at all to do that and I
am sort of disappointed that you feel you need to do that. Over a dollar, no
less.
