Perhaps a large Scapecrunch group purchase could be arranged if shipping to all the individuals could be worked out. Not sure if the price would be low enough to be worth the hassle of the logistics.

Man I would sure be in to do that for some of that great orange Java fern, maybe @Dennis Wong can point us to a supplier
Inpaichthys luizae getting fat. Slightly more aggressive fish as they grow larger, but I don't see much damage even though they dart at each other frequently. H. myrmex seem to be avoiding them

I’d be in on that!
I've done it a few times.
No one has outright tried to scam my money.
However, most of them will ship without a phyto certificate. So they'll just gamble whether or not the package gets sezied/inspected.
Usually they will reship it for you if it does, you do have to repay the shipping price though.
If you're lucky, sometimes another person buying it will have a phyto cert, and your order goes to them, and then they ship it to you, kinda as a favor from the seller.
Currently buying some buces from a guy in vietnam and it can be quite a hassle if the package gets inspected and refused.
