    True story. I paid to get WiFi on JAL flight from Hawaii to Japan just to get the switchback mirror signals. It was so worth it! Hahaha

    I am really sorry. I try my best to keep everyone updated on release time, price, email notifications, etc. But at the end of the day I only have X amount available. If anyone has other suggestions on how to take orders(in a fair manner), I'm all ears in order to boost efficiency.

    So I assume that since all are sold out, there must not be any left for the harness only people.

    Funny story, I had the page open and refreshing all morning. I was on the phone with my boss and refreshed the page when I saw they dropped. I said "hang on I have to go pee real quick" and ordered them while she was holding.

    Don't you have kids? Put them to work! Invite their friends, and let them all know that there won't be any BS cutting corners and doing stuff the wrong way!

    Seriously though, it's tough when you have such high quality standards, hand building and testing can only move so fast. For myself, if all the parts were gathered, I could build this kit. OTOH, paying for you to build and test them is the reassurance that I certainly don't mind added into the cost.

    All that being said, and missing out (thanks to currently being in Greenland for a month with quite possibly the slowest shared connection on MF'ing EARTH), I say keep doing what you are doing.

    Hire some labor. $14/hr or $30 incl. overhead and you'll be putting out 100 of these every day.

    I don’t know. Some have asked to take pre-orders but then again you will have people that complain about the turn around time. :argue:
    I think there must be a reason why companies do it that way, i.e. @SCSPerformance and we are not in your shoes. And as the saying goes “the best things in life are worth waiting for.” I didn’t get my Ray’s on my first attempt either.

    Easier said than done. Hiring labor to produce this eats right into your profit. Keep in mind all the headache that would costs a business to hire labor (i.e. taxes, potential health care costs, insurance, etc.). Plus all the parts you need to order which could create excess inventory which could put Meso into a financial roadblock. There's no guarantee that producing 100 will lead to 100 being sold.

    This is Meso's first year being 100% dedicated to this business. Let him get up and running, get a good feel of demand and I'm sure he'll ramp up when the time is ready.

    I haven’t gotten any in stock emails including this one. Just checked my spam folder and nothing there that wasn’t spam either. Not that it would have been enough time to make a difference if sure, and I did score a stage 1 anyway. But seems my Gmail account isn’t getting the in stock emails.
