Here's an idea. I am thinking about ordering a bag (135lbs I think) of Yemen Mocha from Royal and having it delivered to a Seattle source, possibly Hines (I'd have to work details out with the Johns).

Are there any members who

a) are willing to pre-pay for part of this commercial bag (say in minimum 5lb allotments)
b) pick up in Seattle?

Let me know - if I can get enough interest, I think we can get some good Yemen for very cheeep. Maybe half the price or less that we're seeing it go for these days at the home-greenie companies.

I could do ten pounds, and pick it up here in Seattle.  Hines is less than a mile away from my office.

No shipping, my apologies (unless of course someone else in Seattle wants to do it) - if I have to arrange shipping, that's the deal killer for me - I just don't have the time to arrange it. If we can find people regionally who can do local pickups, then I'd use my contacts at Royal to have it shipped one place, have it sorted into everyone's alotment, and then the next time I drive down to Seattle, I'd grab my share :)
