No there is no news yet. Only three weeks have passed since the order and they gave a 7-9 week lead so I probably won't hear anything until around August. When I hear anything from them I will post it.
counting all the people above together the "are any surplus left?" magnets sum up to over 100 magnets.
i recommend the interested people initiate a new group buy (means open a new group buy thread, gather the people who are interested, settling on a kind of magnets, picking someone to order them etc.).
Good timing with the question, I just received these but was not home until late tonight. I will be sending PM's over the next couple of days to get addresses and such. I was moving when I ordered these and they wanted to wait to get the shipping and billing address when they were ready to ship and they showed up next day from our conversation about addresses. I will either post pictures or a link to pictures of the magnets sometime tomorrow morning (EST).
I have one on my ring finger to give an idea of its size and also next to a grain of rice.
I will have to get an estimate for shipping but I'm guessing it won't be much since they weigh next to nothing. I will be using the bubble pack mailers and will place the magnets inside a bag wrapped in packing foam or bubble wrap. PM's incoming over the next few days, once I get an idea on shipping costs.
@DCWhathe & @Redfox, I am sending out the information to the people who originally wanted in and if anyone isn't interested in getting what they requested then I'll have some leftover to sell to those who have asked, although there are quite a few requests so I don't know if it would make it this far down or not. Once I have a headcount I will start working down the list.
I have sent PM's to everyone that got in for the order. I just sent a generic msg but I forgot to mention if you are not interested anymore or want fewer let me know, it's not a problem as there seems to be plenty of interest from others.
