The emails are a nice touch; obviously it isn't their first time at the rodeo.

I got black! Can't wait for it to get here
I was told first shipment is going out by the end of next week. Which would put the average wait at 5 weeks for the people that first ordered.
500 of each design. Meaning 500 of each colour of each design for each phone (6/6+)?
Or a total of 500 pieces regardless of colour?

Hmmm...interesting question. It'd be really unique if it were 500 pieces total.
So, 500 of each color (4 colors = 2000), of each design (X 3 designs; Cabrio, Wallet, & Book = 6000) for each phone (X 2; 6 & 6+) would be 12,000 pieces...not so unique
Plus I think that would be hard to pull off on a handmade item unless they have a shop full of magic elves.
Manca just said the first shipment will go out early next week. They seem to keep pushing it by a week.
I hope that after all of this suspense and waiting they live up to the hype! Would be nice if they post some real photos this week so that we can see a real finished product too.
Yup, I got the same response. I'm not happy with this company at all right now. my 3-4 week wait time is starting to look like 6 weeks.
The cases look nice, however I be hesitant to order a case before actual photos are shown from a small, little known company halfway across the world. This appears to be a case style they have not produced before. The previous cases I found are a simple box sleeve and a aluminum case that messed up phone reception. They promoted the CalypsoKey NFC case which never came to be. It doesn't seem the company have ever posted a real photo of the new cases, just some renderings done by a graphic artist. Will the case ever match the renderings, thats the question. Problem is that you will receive the case and perhaps not like it, they will accept it as a return but require you to pay the huge international shipping charge to send it back. Risky I would say until real photos come to be.
I hope the case is great. Just saying to be careful.

I just ordered a Vaja grip too since they are only quoting 5 business days till delivery.
That's good. They seem to have really focussed on the 6 cases as there are very few 6 Plus case styles even available and they are only customised, nothing in stock.
