..is it that big a deal to just make about 100 more??? it's not rocket science..it's a goddamn plaster mold!!! just make more!!! it's not going to be any less collectable cause there are 250 out there as opposed to 150.....c'mon people. obviously there is an overwhelming demand..why not make everyone happy by allowing everyone to purchase one...any leftover can be put on ebay with the proceeds to cover the costs of making them.....unless of course controvesy, scarcity and division is whatwas intended by this endeavor in the first place...

Tipsy... come on over and make the master molds and the working molds. I guarantee it will take you at least a week. How much is a week of your time worth? A week I dont have time for, A week out of regular production, new designs and other deadlines. The orginal head count was only around 150. Should I have invested another full week of mold making for 50 more mugs? It doesnt equal out. I wish everyone had been able to get one. I think its incredibly rude to even sugest, even if your joking, that we intended to create this controversy. Ebay? how is that making it for TC members only?

heh! heh!...ya got me stuckie ol' boy!! heh!.....yeesh...sorry for all the hub-bub...i didn't realize the labor intensity and that you were producing them on your own...yeah, that is alot of work...i've become so used to farming stuff out to china or indpendants to do the shit work that i assumed you were too....i would have paid someone else to make the molds and castings (my time being worth more than the money i'd have to spend to avoid doing the work).....i don't blame you for gettin' angry with me....i only meant to sell any left over ones from an additional run on ebay AFTER those on t.c. that wanted one got one, if you did another run...anyway, it's a cool design and it looks great...forget about my earlier post and let's move on...
