Does anyone by chance have a price, or know of a place selling them that
actually tells you the price up front, for a vertical axis windmill large
enough to power a 2,000 square foot grid connected home in a 10 MPH
average wind?

I have been able to locate several makers of vertical axis windmills, but
I have been unable to locate any sort of a price quote. And I get enough
spam e-mail as it is, without having to sign up for more just to get a
price...

Did you try CALLING the OEM's, on the Phone, and asking them the price?

Spam for the suckers. Do you really think the stats you gave are possible?

10 mph is a pretty slow wind to get much power from and at *ground level* too
?

I don't have the numbers in front of me, but I seem to recall the last
time one of those criminal MLM scams for windtree came up I figured that
the wind turbine would have to be about as big as the house itself.
