Getting close! Thank you!

Everyone is invoiced, but there were some drop-outs. There are 10 sets available, please PM me if you are interested in ordering one.

aaaaand paid.

OK! Final order number of 150 placed with GMK. There's still 2 slots open if anyone wants in!

I thought we were quite a bit above MOQ when you started invoicing? A lot of people must've dropped out when the invoice arrived. That's not very nice...

Quick Update: Everyone is paid up, sending money to GMK this week. There are 8 spots open from people who dropped. Send me PM here or on reddit if you'd like a spot. Thanks!

OK, payment wired to GMK. 4 spots open if anyone wants to jump in... Pricing updated to $110/set.
