Please re-read the PM that I sent you. You will receive a Paypal Invoice when payment is due, but I won't take payment until the order and stock have been confirmed with Keith. Don't see the point of taking your money and then refunding it because the shield you ordered is out of stock and you don't want anything else

There are still a couple of people who were sent the link that haven't placed their order.... for anyone picking up this thread late, I recommend you read the first post. If you want to take part in the Group Buy, then please drop me a PM and I will send you the details.

For everyone else, please remember that you have until midnight Saturday 26th June to complete your order.


Regards

Thanks so much Tim your a star

I've just received the following from Keith at Empire after not having a response to my email last Friday, and so chased him....

Hey Tim, We are almost out of all shields, I don't know how long, maybe a few weeks because vacation of machines, the colors we have at this time are not cut and either flat or solid colors only. I hate to say this but we got bombarded with orders past few weeks and inventory is very low, I personally dont think i have even 50 total in stock and orders daily are swarming. After you tell me what most people want i can try to reserve best i can with it, there will be some new colors and cuts so it may be better to wait at least a few weeks till they are complete, The new stock hasn't even begin to start and to me it doesn't look promising that will be done soon. I will do my best to fulfill the ones you tell me that i have in stock. Please email me back and let me know this is ok. I will do my best.... Keith

My reply:-

Hey Keith,

Thanks for letting me know. Of the orders I've got through at the moment I'd say that the most popular ones are the Silver Cut and the Silver Solid, however, there's a good mix of all of them that people want. As I'm sure you can appreciate, with so many orders I'm going to have to go back to the members, advise and see what people want to do... I think it's probably going to be likely that most people will simply wait until your stock has replenished and the new colour options are available. A little disappointing, didn't realise your stocks were so low or I wouldn't have pushed this hard for the business...

I'll post your email to the forums and get a consensus on what people want to do, and come back to you.

Regards


Tim

To say that I'm disappointed and downright p***ed off is putting it mildly, had he told me stocks were so low I wouldn't have bothered with this. Can all parties that have placed their orders please let me know what you wish to do?

It's not your fault Tim I'm happy to wait until they have stocks. x

Further response from Keith:-

Thanks Tim, silver solid and silver flat i can have made faster then all the colors, but will do my best to see what i can do. I wish i could tell you i have them all or they are coming soon, but i have to wait it out as others till machinist is complete. Will keep you updated best i can do, I will try to fufill the ones i have if need be. Thank you again and talk to you soon~ Keith

Overall impression I get is that there is basically nothing left... if the silver solid and flat have to be manufactured, then I'm guessing that the only stock left are the less popular colours...

Happy to wait Tim
