There should have been enough progress made within the last two weeks to have posted an update. Not to mention a pm including a tracking number for the package containing my original. Ramy, please get that in the mail to me.

Hey guys,

I'll try to stay on top of the thread better and provide more frequent updates. I was away for the past several days because I was moving everything AGAIN from our temp location to our final permanent location. Lots of work. But I don't anticipate any other major future delays. But I'm back, and we're gonna get this wrapped up immediately.

oo7arkman, I PMed you. Awaiting your reply.

Thanks,

Good to know. PM replied..

Replied back w/ tracking info.

Sweet. I will report back here for everyone when I get a first hand look at one of the new keys. If you guys want more pics I will post a few, although I am not sure what more I can offer pic-wise since Ramy already posted some. Either way, lemme know.

Ramy
Let us know when the elves are finished making our keys

So I recieved my original key back yesterday along with a FDNewbie produced key.

The replica looks spot-on to the original Spirit-R key. The size, shape, and design is perfect. The metal feels like good quality and should last and not bend easily.

I'm certainly glad that in the end, you received everything back and it's a quality item.

So when do we start recieving our keys?

i believe he is still making them, and then has to get money from people who want it cut.

i would like to see the black ones if you have pictures.!

UPDATE:

First, thanks for your patience guys. It's been a long road, but we're almost at the finish line ;-) And Noah, a special thanks to you =-)
Now, down to business. I want to make sure everyone's on the list before we finalize everything. I'm going to start making the keys from now so we can get the ball rolling, and we'll be closing the GB at the end of the month, Monday August 31, 2009 @ 11:59 PM PST. Please VERIFY the info below and notify me of any corrections/errors ASAP, as once the GB is closed, I will hold everyone responsible for the info below! Also, I will accept additional orders until the GB has officially closed.

I would like to upgrade my key to brass, send me a PM about how much this will cost, I will also pay off my $0.14

What's this brass thing again? On my uphone and it takes awhile to load up a thread.

info on brass? I don't remember anything about this.

Ramy
1. I need to update my shipping address (as when i paid I have changed jobs, so it cant be shipped there)
2. Would like brass.
3. Would like vin cutting.

( I assume costs for 2&3 are somewhere in this thread?)
Whats the best way to get you this information?

I also need to change my shipping address. I can pm you or email you, whatever you would rather. Thanks

I sent you a payment for 2 red keys August 6, 2008

1) Key production is already underway
2) The list below is as up-to-date as my current records. Sorry if some of the information is being asked again; what was lost in the previous thread that was deleted is...lost. So I gotta have us all (myself included) jump through these hoops one last time...
3) I'm gonna warn you guys now. The cost of the material right now is a bit more than I was previously quoted months ago when we began. Since we have so many purchases, this will inevitably result in a SLIGHT surcharge per person (prob. around $5/key). I'm very sorry about this, but it's out of my control. I'm already paying out of pocket because of this. This is the problem w/ doing business in real time in this global market =-/ I hope you guys understand. I will NOT be collecting this cost now; I'll just deal w/ it when it comes time to collect shipping costs.
4) The GOOD news that came out of this is that I can offer TWO different material for the actual metal part of the key to you guys.
- The default key will be made of mild steel. This is your average run-of-the-mill key.
- The key is ALSO available in brass with a chrome coating, for about $4 more/key. Brass with chrome coating is more $$, but the key will be of superior quality. Just throwing it out there ;-)

i found where he said it. it was number 4...whats the difference? ones normally silver while ones coated? wouldnt the coating come off with all the use it would get, scratches and what not.

I'm looking for more of a firm price on the brass, maybe a price with shipping included. My order says I owe $0.14. I don't want to pay $4.14 and then get a message that says I owe another 2 cents or something. I'm sure other buyers want some degree of certainty too.

Ramy, I also want the brass keys and I moved so I have a NEW address. Please let me know what I need to do. Thank You.

don if paypal is charging 3% or what ever just add it in, then no worries. i forgot to do the same thing.. im waiting for a shipping price, i may want another key also

just turned 22. aug 21st

Ramy,
Did you get my PM? I wanted to know what my new total owed is so I can send you the correct amount.

Thanks!
Jon
