I had similar thoughts.
How would you keep everyone happy if there was only 2 metroliners (draw some
straws?)
Have you considered phoning them to find out stock levels first?
Have you considered phoning them to see if they would ship - save a lot of
time!
Have you considered going by yourself, or just a smaller party, but funded by
a wider group along with a list of their wants and just buying everything of
interest in sight and filling the list, then splitting up on return.
Have you considered going sooner? What if the good stuff has disappeared by
the summer? Long way to go to find out.
