Oh, Craig, I see Routers selling out like hotcakes. Let 'em clone you. The clones will probably be chock full of lead and polonium and ebola anyways.

And here's the coolest part: I doubt there are more than a handful of sales lost to clones. I think there are very few people who will look for a clone, not find one, and then purchase the original.

However, the whole ECF thing bugs a lot of people, not just you. It is all quite unnecessary.

The only thing you should worry about is that you sell everything you make, and that you keep innovating*. The rest - what is being cloned, who is selling the clones and where they are selling them - ignore it, that is just noise.

* and have fun doing it

Can I pay for next day shipping or something? I about smashed my computer. And can ECF get a 24 hour advanced notice with a time to avoid this?. I have saved my money to be able to buy ONE router tip.
I'm really not comfortable taking payments on items not ready to ship... like todays orders will be at the PO this evening.

I will do my best to give more notice on future iyems.

That or say limit them like 2 per person. A pre order/wait list would be awesome too! That would ensure everyone that wants one can get thier hands on one. Hell I only need one!

I know you're not that comfortable with it but folks have been waiting A LONG TIME to get the tips for thier Odins.

Just a thought.

...well the websites "notify me" option didn't work and I missed the drip tips...

Unfortunately the way the notify system works.. it takes # of stock supplied and goes down the list in order of received and notifies the customer.

I'm having customers email who got notifications but no ability to purchase.

If coding were my thing and had the time, I'd make my own secure shopping cart with the specific options i need and not have to pay a small fortune every month to a 3rd party. I could pay someone.. but the last quote I got was nearly $7,000usd. :(

That sucks about the e commerce programs can't do that. Limited supply? One per person.
Yeah, I dont have the option to limit to per person.. unless I want to pay the $200 monthly serive fee on top of 2.9%+30 cents per transaction(when I have 0 stock still pay monthly)... ofc this doent count the payment processing fees.

As you see im pretty transparent with things and do my best to keep prices low.. but have to know where to draw a line so were not losing money.

We've been (very slowly) working on a 14mm bottom fed atty.. shooting for a $45-50 retail.

erm... limiting isn't going to work for me. I am doing my online buying for 4 people and it makes sense for me to pay 1 shipping fee and I need all the stuff in 1 package as I use a forwarding service to send the stuff to where I am. And if I want direct shipping overseas, would't that mean paying outrageous shipping fees multiple times?

This time round, Craig has 2k+ R tips so we should be good for a while.

Please, whatever you do, do not limit the quantities that I can buy. :(

Craig if I were you I'd look at how many people you actually please and not the one's that ..... and whine. You can never please everyone every time buddy and whatever you do they'll always be those that complain.

Take care of your family pal because that's what matters when all is said and told

I come with good news.. I'm adding more Router tips. Got about 350 going up.. so shouldn't sell out like yesterday.

Since it's so late in the day these wont go out till tomorrow.
Hmm. I'm about to order just one more! ....thinking about it. Although my account might not even have enough for just that. Maybe I should still try. I gotta be prepared.. what if I lose the other ones I bought?!
...decisions, decisions...
