The most talk about filter basket nowadays is that by Synesso.

I want to buy some to see the difference and would like to organize a group buy to share the postage.

There are four sizes: 7g, 14g, 18g & 21g available and the price are US$8.89, 6.89, 10.49 & 12.99 respectively.

The rules are:
i) Any guy interested please advise me the size and quantity you want via personal message before 23:59 31 August 2009.
ii) I will contact Synesso to see if they would deliver to Hong Kong.
iii) You pay deposit to my account at HK$71, 55, 84 & 104 respectively for each baskets before 23:59 10 September 2009.
iv) I place order to Synesso.
v) Postage would be shared equally amongst each baskets.
vi) US$ would be calculated at 1 to HK$8 to the nearest HK$.
v) I will refund the exact amount you paid if the ordered items do not arrive.
