Are these just the unpaid or do they include the 'pending'?

Just the unpaid (as of 10:00AM PST this morning).

Just paid. I know it's very late. If it gets rejected, I totally understand.

Two forum moderators still on the unpaid list?

Paypal doesn't dispense special cooperation just because we're mods. We get bent over just as often

Updates:

Today is your last chance to get a payment in with assurance that your order will be safe.

Tomorrow we will be announcing the unpaid items available for others to take.

Thursday we plan to submit the final order to SP.

Let's take bets to see how quickly the abandoned orders are snatched up. My guess is that 90% will be snatched up before the Thursday midnight EST. This GB has set some records in terms of speed, let's hope it stays that way.

samwisekoi · « **Reply #229 on:** Thu, 07 March 2013, 18:32:39 »

Order placed with SP for $31,860.05.

All final PayPal invoices sent out; many were paid immediately. (Thanks!)

Now we wait for plastic and fabrication.

Thanks to everyone for helping this be a fast, furious and successful group buy!

p.s. I read and worked through everyone's messages. If you didn't get a personal reply, that only meant I understood and had what I needed.

Nah, that was just where the spreadsheet landed. Paying by wire, not PayPal!

No one wants to lose around $1000 to PayPal twice, once is enough. What worries me about group buys of this magnitude is how does it effect your taxes?

Hak Foo · « **Reply #242 on:** Thu, 07 March 2013, 23:32:04 »

You might want to try to structure it as an extremely low-margin home business.

$31,875 income, $31,860 cost of goods expense, or something like that. Thus declaring the income, but also clearly delineating that almost all of it goes right back the door.

Sorry for a noob question, this is my first GB.
So now we need to wait for SP to come back to us accepting our order and then how long is going to take to produce it all and send back to you guys?
Are there any solid dates or just some estimates?

Matt3o · « **Reply #246 on:** Fri, 08 March 2013, 05:42:21 »

Not even an estimate at the moment. If I had to shoot a number I'd say 2 months to hold your precious.

We will keep you posted.

Hmm yes some kind of blue modifiers would be great, perhaps in a shade of light blue or even turquoise. A mustard yellow has a nice retro feel as well and we don't really have any yellow sets yet.

regack · « **Reply #249 on:** Fri, 08 March 2013, 07:28:03 »

Matt3o, is there a way to have the place/review order page show an uneditable list of what I ordered? I honestly don't exactly remember how many of what, and I was thinking of picking up some of the extras... assuming there are still some left to pick up...
