No disrespect to newer members, but my guess is that the stalwarts (eg everyone on this page) understand better how these things work and commit / see through.
I suspect some others were in just to flip and make a profit...
With regards to the 60 people who said that they would like to be added to the list ..... I would publish this list on the forum and highlight all the people who still have not committed with Luigi (I think 3 weeks is enough time to get your act together, commit and pay).
At the very least these people should contact Simon/Luigi and explain the reason why they have Not followed through after all the Time, effort and commitment made by others to get us to this point.
If after another 2 weeks; they have still not committed to the project (which may not happen now) because of this ...... in the future IF another project is attempted these dreams and time wasters should be excluded.
I think the second idea is sound but I don't think anyone is about shaming anyone....we don't know all the reasons why a person has not yet pulled the triggered. But they should communicate to Luigi a yay or a nay.
This is kind of what I was afraid would happen.
Being in sales, I can tell you that what someone
has to have today, they may forget about tomorrow.
A lot of time has passed with this project.
That or their interest went beyond the capability of
their wallets, and they got ahead of themselves.
It appears only the die hard fans are committing.
Unless someone has a brilliant idea to respark interest,
I think this project is at a stand still.
Hi guys. I have no skin in this game, but if promoting the project on my site will help just let me know. More than happy to assist if the project leaders feel it's appropriate. All the best and happy new year!
You need to step back and wait to be contacted...people may be busy...with it being New Year and all...
I apologize, if it came off as being rude and out of bounds.
Contact Luigi directly

Sure he will send you the forms etc. Once returned pm Simon so he can add you to the "good boys" list
I had paid but did not PM Simon. I am sure there are others in the same boat, wasn't aware that was how we were keeping count. Perhaps the actual number is higher then?
I think we will see a spike in interest the closer we get to 50, since it's human nature to want what you can't have, as opposed to being around 25...people most likely don't like the idea of their funds being suspended for an indefinite amount of time. A numbers update may help things.
By the way I haven't received an email confirmation yet from Luigi. Did you guys get an email confirmation after placing your order?
I have received a confirmation from Luigi.
I'm not sure TF will charge my credit card before we get close to 50. Otherwise, Luigi will have to proceed with many refunds if the project doesn't move on.
Yes people should not worry about their money being 'frozen'. Nothing will happen till we reach the magic 50. On another note, can anyone who has asked to have 'Daniel Craig- Bond 22' in their labels have a rethink and send Luigi a revised label, as it won't be possible to copy the screen-used one.

That is not even 50%...
Christmas money then will be spent elsewhere

I agree. I think the next two weeks will be informative.

this is our chance to finally have this jacket...
The project won't move forward though unless there are 50 orders. No exception to that rule.
This could take awhile...

I hope Mantis' polo project has a better outcome.
Yes! I'm guessing you need to contact Luigi to pay, not Simon

He knows how many people have paid finally and that's all what counts

Hopefully numbers are up last few days - though a lot of the "vocal" people earlier in this thread have gone very quiet of late!
I was afraid of that...

No - didnt last time on tie project either
