Doable in this climate or pipedream ?

Might help if you actually ask a question. Buying? Selling?

Buying of course .

Selling is a no brainer

Buying is easy, just depends on how much you are willing to pay. I would sell 8-10 bricks if the rewards were sweet enough but wouldnt ship them. All sales cash face to face.

Easily available on GB right now. 5000 round case is $1210 including shipping. Kinda pricey, but certainly doable for any determined person.
