Anyone Here Buy Google Shares?

Google's initial public offering took place on August 19, 2004, raising $1.67 billion, making it worth $23 billion. (courtesy Wikipedia).

Shares were initially offered at $85 each. Not being in the US I`m not so up to date with current US shares, but I can only imagine Google shares have increase in value over the past 3 plus years.

Did anyone here buy Google, and at what price are they currently trading?

I didnt get in at $85, but did get a bunch in the $300's and $400's. Last I checked shares are around $620.

Even buying at $300 that`s still a healthy profit. For those getting in at the groundfloor, which I reckon many institutions will have, it`s even better.

If ever there was such a thing as a `safe bet` with new stocks, that launch had to be it.
