Cost to him does not necessarily equal cost to them.
This^ I bought mine from tinlong for $170 (plus shipping) and at first this deal made me cringe, but I'm not the least bit upset after thinking about it. They're priced very similar before factoring in shipping, and it's not as if shipping from China doesn't cost more than shipping from TN.
Now I'm playing with the idea of buying another one of these along with an Orange Pure and replacing the Orange case with the aluminum case so I can sell the Green Pure with plastic. Ugh I don't know if I should do this or wait for the Poker S which probably won't be out for a year lol.
