The biggest reduction will likely be shipping costs, which are non-trivial usually IIRC.
How could you reduce "Free shipping" any further? (Which is how much the shipping cost when I ordered a couple of RPIs late last year)

We are considering the possibility of a LUV bulk purchase of Raspberry Pi computers and related hardware to give better prices for LUV members.
I would think this would be pretty "fruitless" -- the Raspberry Pi gear is already very cheap and I don't think you'll see any reduction without huge quantities. Have you been given any idea of a discount for volume or are just fishing to see?
Also, the whole idea of the RPi is more geared towards education, rather than enthusiasts. I would also think that their might be better enthusiast options out there.
