The will offer a better rate because they want your money. Nejc Kodrič is the man to talk to. I have no idea what the rates are or whether that's a large enough amount for them to give you a discount.

# How to buy a million ripples?

(Asked by: username_0 on 2013-04-25)

If someone wanted to buy up lots of ripples, say a million, how would they go about doing it?

Currently the exchanges don't seem to give good rates, and trading one-to-one with someone else would be inefficient. Is OpenCoin selling directly? At the current Bitstamp rate, it would cost $4444.44 to buy 1,000,000 XRP.
