Hey all, I placed the order the other day after I got back from PCB. There was a little confusion about the artwork, but we got it straightened out.
18 days.

OK, some of you had inquired about having something like a yard sale/swap meet kind of thing.
I checked in with the powers that be at Vortex and it's OK if we do that. There is a 20% proceed from sales that Vortex requires.
But, anyway, if ya got something ya want to sell, bring it . . .
18 days . . . . WOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO !!!

The Kraken:
Vortex wants 20% of anything that is "self sold" at a swap-meet type sale? ouch.
I could understand that if they were selling it under consignment, but 20% is a little high for them doing nothing. 10% maybe since it's on their property, but 20% is a joke.

Yeah, maybe I can talk Connie down a bit. Refuse to give her any of my brunswick stew . . .
Then again, it doesn't have to be an organized event.
If someone has something s/he wants to sell and another person finds out about it . . .
Course if something is just swapped ?????

Just got confirmation back that Vortex does want 20%.
I think we should just work through word of mouth and not have a formal swap meet.
Taking 20% just for using a locality, to my way of thinking, borders on extortion.
