These buttons look great!! I'm a new member who just joined, will send you a PM about the buttons as soon as I reach a post count of 2. lol.

Do you have the pics ready yet? Are the MOP's from your latest batch still available?

thanks,

Back to reality. Check your PM.

The factory didn't send me the sample buttons for suits but will do so immediately. Will post pictures as soon as they arrive. From photos they look gorgeous!

Price: I have not received price from factory yet, but pretty much the same scenario applies here as with the MOP buttons. I have to order a significant quantity - too much for my own use, therefore selling those I cannot use. They are not cheap though, so be prepared; but they are definitely the best. Those who know me personally knows how obsessive I am with buttons.

Stay tuned.

Waiting for the photos ...

They promised me at the beginning of the month but they forgot. What's more, these are not samples I can keep, just borrow and then I have to return them. I will take as many photos as I could and we'll have to vote which ones we like and pool our orders together.

Since January 2009 it has been $1.80 per button. I offer 5% off over 6 sets (roughly 66 buttons), then 5% off and free postage from 10 sets.

Several updates:

I have 5 days back home before my next trip, so if you need buttons, send PM immediately.
Price for 2010 remains the same as of this moment: $1.80 per button, 5% off after 6 sets, 5% off AND free postage after 10 sets.

All buttons sold.

I have put an order for more buttons some months ago, and they should arrive in mid- or end-January. This will be an order for only a few sets.

As thick shells are becoming a rarity, there will be a price increase after this January order (from $1.80 to around $2 per button). If you would like to receive buttons at the old price, please follow the following procedures:

1) PM me for the exact amount of buttons you need. No discounts apply. Include your Paypal email.
2) I will send you an invoice within a few hours.
3) Only payments received by January 8 will guarantee you the buttons. Payments received after January 8 will only be considered if there are buttons left (most likely not). I will let you know the price difference for the February batch, which is about $0.10 to $0.15/button more.

Orders will be confirmed in the order Paypal payment is received.
