Only a couple of days left until Luigi's payment deadline of the 15th—make sure everyone that confirmed their tie orders after Luigi's late Feb email has paid!
Yep, to confirm also there will be no late orders accepted, Luigi was very clear, in by 15th close of play and it closes
I've sent mine via bank transfer over the weekend, with my bank there were options, but to add no additional fees it would 2 working days for it to get there.
The money left my account on Monday and I emailed Luigi confirming money was sent and would be there in 2 working days.
Not sure how other banks do it, but if going via the bank transfer route I'd suggest doing it sooner to avoid missing out, but also to avoid additional costs.
Anyone here know if when making a bank transfer if its best to do it in EUR using your own bank conversion rate or let TF do the conversion?
If you use your credit card, the exchange rate will be worst and in addition to that, you will have to pay an extra fee.
I used my credit card for safety reasons
Sent two messages to Luigi in the morning and he hasn’t replied. ?:)
Give him time, I’m sure he’s got a lot on his plate. Remember he’s MTM Manager for Europe—our little Bond projects are a small part of his day to day work.
I also think he may have been off today and yesterday as I have daily communications and nothing mon / tue...
Sure he will return.
I also know he has joined ajb! So only be flattering )
Less than a day left to get your payments in before the doors close on this project! Remember Luigi won't be accepting any late orders so those who haven't paid yet, get it done ASAP so you don't miss out on this awesome—not to be repeated—opportunity!
Did Luigi come back to any of you confirming the order? I know he is busy and probably will take a while until he is able to do so. I just want to make sure I am not missing anything and he got my order and payment right.
Is there anyone out there that has the wider version of the ties from the very limited re-run that was done a few years ago that would be wiling to trade it for one of these SA width ties? I'm a bit bigger guy, so a 7 cm tie looks ridiculous on me, and so I'd love to be able to get one of the wider width versions that was done. If anyone wants to do a trade, pm me!
All
Luigi is back in and confirmed we are at 141 ties...
Also he is working through all emails, so bear with him if seeking a reply.
And again stressed tomorrow is cutoff

They weren’t wider, they were the screen accurate 7cm too.

In fairness to cyclones122, I had the tri-colour tie in a ‘standard’ width (3½” if memory serves) from what I believe is the same limited run on here circa tail end of 2013; orchestrated by othertravel with Sir Miles overseeing the project for ajb members (thanks Paul).
A big thank you to M and Luigi, not-to-mention the members on here that have helped make this run happen.
Awesome work.
So my card was charged, but then my bank declined the transaction because they thought it was fraud, I called them up and cleared the matter, but they said that Tom Ford has to run the card again, so I emailed Luigi and noticed it was one hour before the Milan store closes, technically on the 15th, but he has yet to try running it again. Do you think he will make an exception? And run it for me tomorrow?

Happened to me as well. I’m sure Luigi will be accommodating.

I am in the same boat but I’m sure it’s fine. I’m guessing almost everyone had their card declined the first time. If you didn’t, might want to get a new credit card!

Just a few hours until the window closes this afternoon
Please, if you were in, get your email to Luigi.
