Awesome, thanks for the info Sophie.

How are the other pieces coming along w/ Mercury? Is the maze/front machined yet? =)

If these were made in the US they would cost $500 each.. Be patient.. Lots of effort is going into producing this puzzle.. They will be worth the wait..

Easily said from those who haven't been here for almost 5 years. any sentence discussing patience or waiting is best avoided. Like talking about religion or politics on a first date.

Jack Blacks' brother?

Patience is a virtue but it's also subjective optimism. I'm very patient but it still hasn't stopped my hair from falling out!

I was hoping the first twenty would arrive in time for Christmas. With holiday shipping it could easily take ten days for an overseas package to arrive. If they aren't in the mail by the 14th I'd say that they would have to spend more on expedited shipping of some sort to be delivered before Christmas.

Other than the past delays, I don't think a specific shipping date has been mentioned recently. I think a "they'll ship when they're ready to ship" attitude is the best they can do. I'd rather that than estimates that aren't accurate.

I suppose time's running out for a 2013 delivery of the purples also, assuming the last round is the 14th.
