Wait, I’m confused. This thread is now on page 3 and we’ve haven’t seen the usual “It’s overpriced rubbish, I’m out” post from pegasus yet. 😃
Did I slip over into an alternate universe? Ah, c'mon peg, you know I love ya! |

Ordered on Wednesday evening and just had a tracking email this morning.
Expected Monday!!! That's very impressive if it pans out. Coming from Taiwan was expecting at least 2 weeks. |

I am unhappy that I felt compelled to purchase this, but I think it finally solves the problems all the other versions had.
I look forward to getting this. Now I have to go sell something.

I thought it was interesting that they show the inner blueprint in one of the videos. I am thinking I shouldn't have done the First Class shipment and paid a little more for another service...just to have it not spend too much time in transit. |

Tracking is very important and also a verifiable signature upon receiving too, just in case it never turns up.

Still can't believe it's saying due tomorrow between 11am and 4pm when I only ordered on Wednesday, we shall see. Have waited far longer for things ordered from the UK!!!! |

I've just received mine and am very pleased. I'm tempted to buy a second, bar for the shipping. The opposite grain at the ends really sells it, and I do prefer it over industrial revolution.

I did not get this wood version due to concerns that since it is made from wood, it can chip and/or warp and taht with repeated use any joints would become loose and less secure and that a seam will more likely appear than with steel versions.

I've got various metal versions, card sized and matchbook sized. Big fan of the recent punct but the setup can be difficult. And Metalphone is brilliant for its locking. My IR rusted but works well, and was my go to.
I like this because you can't see the seem, looks deceptive, the weight matches a deck of cards, feels and sounds like wood etc. Let's see how it fairs over time though - well looked after, I think it will last. |
