The Class A shares are priced over $100,000 per share. The Class B shares trade at a fraction of that and that fraction was 1/50th until the recently announce split which will make them 1/1500th of the Class A shares.As a result of the recently announced stock split, www.GiveAshare.com added the B shares to their list of stocks they offer so if you want to buy one share of Berkshire Hathaway stock (Class B - post split) you can go to that website and buy it with a credit card - it take about 2 minutes. The website specializes in selling a share of stock as a gift and this would be a great gift for someone especially a kid because they get the real stock certificate, with Warren's printed signature but they also get invited to the annual shareholder extravaganza.For those wanting to buy more than one share, they can go to their broker and place an order, you cannot buy this stock directly from the company.Old Answer: Answer lots of cash for a day of talkA line stock is 100,000 a share,b line stock is 3,500 dollars a share.The a line stock allows you to to stockholder's meeting and get 8 hours of Warren Buffet's philosophy.
