keep em coming....when we're upto 20 or so i'll put the orders in and take payment, by paypal or in certain cases cash/cheque...
cheers
I really don't appreciate my concerns and others on this issue being called "whining". They're were all legitimate concerns and should be taken seriously and not dismissed as whining. I have also participated in the Magnoli TWINE/TND tie project, and by far that was a breeze and very painless compared to this endeavour. This should have been no different. Believe me, I am really trying hard to restrain myself right now, and perhaps before I say something I shouldn't, I will take a little breather from all of this!
Ok good that i can still buy it how much does one cost?? And what kind of versions are there?? And whats the difrence between them?? Please get back as soon as you can !!

Copaman, there are two versions, one with the pattern matching up on seams/pockets, and one with the pattern not quite matching.
We can still take the P out of Germans though right? I mean, some of them just deserve it. Especially one
For the extra 20 pounds, is everything going to match up or just certain parts of the shirt?

oops, i was genuinely hoping to get this thread back on garment (pun intended...)
devonknight, where does my whining comment refer to you?.......has someone else accused u of whining?....do u think uv been whining?....
actually been back through ur posts (i couldn't remember them particularly) and found nothing unusual.....
no i meant sruzgar when i said whining....go back and check the evidence....
however simon has promised never to whine again...
as regards the ease of this project, firstly We're dealing with new suppliers and the economics of the project almost killed it (until i stepped in alone to subsidize it) while indi is established and replicates like a machine, oh and makes a profit which no one begrudges him.....a little different i think.
Secondly i doubt the level of input by members/clients i've allowed in orderto make this a replica worth the outlay, would be tolerated by indi...has he ever run a thread which at times seems only bound by the us constitution (including ammendments - so i'll take the fifth...)
finally my offer to cede the project to you or any other on payment of my sunk cost, remains.....
now this is a sincere attempt to close the door to the noise and babble that has crept in recently..
I tgt we'd agreed after the dumb anti-turk stuff (tho it's clearly inspired them and now the germans stand in their way....u shaking just a little markus?...)

Is the measurement site going to be up and running or should we PM measurements to Simon?
Just to be clear, what do we get for the $300 shirt?
It seems a little unprofessional and unethical for the tailors to charge extra so late in the game to do the shirt properly, but I commend you guys for hanging in and seeing this through.
Ok so the renoir version is the one that looks like the one in the movie?? When can i buy this shirt? And revoir version then? And please conform that the revoir version is infact the one that looks like the one in the movie.. And why are you guys upset by bondtoys might i ask?
Having agonized over this for weeks, I'm going to have to duck-out I'm afraid.
I just have my fingers in so many pies in combination with seemingly less and less disposable income these days. I know I'll regret it but at this time, I can't commit to £170 for a shirt I'll probably only ever wear 2/3 times and won't be able to display either.
Still, I'm happy in the knowledge that this frees up a slot for another collector. B-)

No, I didn't. You might want to re-read all my posts concerning that project to see that before making false accusations.

let's make some shirts!
Take the 'Renoir' version
Just as a small by-the-by, is the total cost going to be calculated in £ sterling? I only ask as obviously the rate of exchange can fluctuate.
Thanks for all your hard work guys and your patience.
Dave.

Tssss. I can hear your envy
Paul, by the way, did I say, how much I like you ;%
Could you please be the voice of reason?

They may tell you, that it's because of my terrible personality
Truth is, that they are green with envy, that their team did not even make it to the final 16.
