Re:Canonical adds a $625 and $675 UbuntuEdge reward level by rallison on Wednesday July 24, 2013 @10:48AM (#6096466)
One of the important points here is that each price level (aside from the last one) has an allotment of 1250 units. So, while most people won't buy at $625 vs $675, so long as $625 is available, it provides incentive for people to buy now vs later and risk the lower level selling out.

Edit: Although, the $625 level is now "1296 out of 1250 claimed" - so I'm not sure what that is about.

Looks like they're probably letting people through if they've entered the pledge process while there were free slots even if all were filled by the time they completed it.
