Sean,

The list price on the reeds is $13.95/pack of 5. They say that
through their hand selection process and quality control, you can
expect to find 2 of the 5 reeds very good, and the others able to be
worked on. This is in a pack of 5 and is about the same as most
people feel they are getting in a box of 10 with the others.

Whether or not these prices get discounted will be a matter of supply
and demand. I'm trying now to get the reeds in stock. If you are
interested, I'll forward a message to you when that happens.

Good luck,

Steve
