 = phenomenon =

We have a hacking planned and we need some parts that are not easily
 available. We have come with a list of parts and selected those that will
 be necessary or better to be purchased on the USA and brought to FUDCon.
 The list can be found at the following link:
 [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Hacking_Robotic_Valencia_2012#Shopping_List
 Shopping List]

= reason =

As stated availability in LATAM is difficult and if found prices are
 several times higher.

= recommendation =

To assign one person with purchase authority and travelling to FUDCon to
 buy those items and carry them to Valencia.

Comment (by rbergero):

Am I correct in understanding that I need to purchase only the webcams and
 servos?

Also:
 Is this servo: http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXH288
 the same as the one listed in the wiki page?

I would prefer to not purchase from China since the shipping can take up
 to a month, and additionally, these are cheaper. :)

If I need to bring other items on the list (I am looking at only the ones
 that need to come from the US), or others still are unpurchased, let me
 know.

Yes that is correct.

Yes those are the same. You can purchase those instead.

I will ping Valentin Basel to check, but I as far as I know he already got
 the rest ready.

Okay, webcams and servos ordered. Hopefully I have a big enough suitcase
 for this stuff. :)
