NYC Resistor buys about a pallet a year. We sell it year round. <br><br>It works for us.<br><br>I suggest buying direct from germany, not through 2600. At a pallet or above there is no reason to take on the overhead of going through a middle man.<br>

Club-Mate has been available in the US for a while, but there hasn't<br>
been a big effort to get it into hackerspaces in the US. Until now:<br>
<br>

<br>
Instead of buying a whole pallet of Club-Mate, I'm delivering cases of<br>
20 bottles around the US starting August 16th. See for yourself why<br>
this is the drink of choice in EU hackerspaces, and help launch the US<br>
distribution of a beverage that helps fund Hackerspaces.<br>
<br>
If this effort is successful, it will help us prove to investors and<br>
potential creditors that there is a viable market for Club-Mate in the<br>
US. We'll be able to buy in much bigger volume, save on shipping<br>
costs and offer special pricing to US Hackerspaces, so you can help<br>
fund your operations with it just like Hackerspaces in Europe do. If<br>
this takes off, the trucks that bring Club-Mate between cities will<br>
also be available for use by Hackerspaces to ship equipment from place<br>
to place.<br>
<br>
But it starts with you: If you're in the US, please consider buying a case.<br>
<br>
If you're outside the US, please pass on this message to any friends<br>
in the US who might be interested in getting their own case, or<br>
helping jump-start US distribution of Club-Mate.<br>
<br>
Thanks again!<br>
