Each kit will cost $10/each. There is no limit to how many you can buy. If you want to make one for every single person of your family/friends, more power to you!
To order these, please contact @_bashNinja through Twitter/IRC/slack/whatever.
THESE MUST BE ORDERED BY Nov 9th. If you've missed the date, contact @_bashNinja and maybe we ordered extras (probably not, but it doesn't hurt to try).
You will need to bring your own Micro USB cable & USB power block to power each Marquee.
