    Dave thanks for the updated in my absence, we did indeed hit the magic number and the order is being place. By far one of the most grueling group buys I have ever organized, time to hibernate for a while.

    Or unobtainium...

    Yes. Many thanks Simon for making such a dream come true for us. Top work man {[]

    You've had your card processed already? Waiting for mine to be hit.

    You deserve a break, Simon. Great work. {[]

    Thank you so much Simon for making this dream come true.
    When you hibernate, please think about the next project :)

    Thanks for your tireless efforts in pursuing this project Simon, you thoroughly deserve a rest. Well done to everyone else who made this project happen as well. It was a great effort and one that I am glad to be part of. Here's to next project - TF Quantum Polo hopefully.
    I'm sorry......that last hand...nearly killed me

    Just seeing a FRACTION of the work, time, and frustration that Simon has put into this I can tell you this was a major ordeal. Our thanks to him would only be magnified if the people who benefited from his time saw even what I have seen. All I can say is he now holds a permanent spot in Bond collection history and appreciation.....

    Simon many thanks for not only getting this project from conception to production, but for your efforts and patience - definitely deserve a Knighthood for this!!

    This might be blasphemy here, but I will paraphrase another JB and say "get some rest Simon, you look tired"

    Can't wait till the summer, and hopefully for the next project!
    For England James?

    Looks like the project is a go. Luigi just sent an email to me checking on name tag text. He's also asked people to stop emailing him about the project!
  • kaddkadd Posts: 917MI6 Agent
    Yep got the email too. Looks like we have until March 10th to make any changes to the embroidered text.
  • The Bond VivantThe Bond Vivant SeendPosts: 1,325MI6 Agent
    Yes. All set. Just a gentle reminder, can anyone who has asked to have 'Daniel Craig- Bond 22' in their labels have a rethink and send Luigi a revised label, as it won't be possible to copy the screen-used one.

    Cheers then,

    Blair

    Anything else is fine right? There was some talk earlier in the thread that Luigi wasn't keen on things like "Quantum of Solace", "James Bond" or other such trademarked phrases

    Guys do you not think it will be better if Simon pics of the project name On the first line of the tag seeing as this whole project was his idea
    That way we would have 50 jackets with the identical project name on them and are individual name on the second line

    Lq, Respectfully, I don't agree with that....I think it's perfect that people can personalize these as they see fit (within copyright or TF comfort limits)....having this named a project as a permanent attachment in my jacket is not something I am interested in....

    I agree.

    I like to keep it simple. I like minimal branding and labels.

    I'm choosing to have nothing special embroidered.

    SA is all I'm after.

  • James BrosnanJames Brosnan Posts: 865MI6 Agent
    My CC was charged too! It's a good feeling. This is actually my first TF clothing piece. Super excited! :007)

    :)) thanks for the tip. I've heard that TF will spoil you. And, if my experience of having all other warm weather clothing spoiled by Orlebar Brown is any indication, then I'm in for a lifetime of a bitter-sweet relationship with TF.

    If the Quantum TF polo is the next project I'm sure you will have to explain that to your wife as well.
  • James BrosnanJames Brosnan Posts: 865MI6 Agent
    :)) oh, I already told her I'll be getting that polo if it happens. The trick is telling them early so that they forget. When they ask about it when the money finally comes out, you remind them that you already got the approval for that a while back. If they don't remember, you can just tell them about how bad it makes you feel that they never listen to you :D works every time

    You're not alone. I know of a regular TF customer who hasn't been charged yet. It will probably take an extra day or two.
  • junebai89junebai89 Posts: 172MI6 Agent
    regular?
  • Westward_DriftWestward_Drift Posts: 3,084MI6 Agent
    He has bought a number of items from TF Milan, so is known to the staff there. Another was only charged late in the business day today.

    My best guess is that they are charging based on the approximate order authorization was sent. Probably be another day or two to get through the list.
  • junebai89junebai89 Posts: 172MI6 Agent
    thanks.

    As Steve said. Know Luigi / Tom Ford Milan well... Mycard was debited late Wednesday.
    Luigi will be processing each order in full one by one, amid doing his usual job. So will take this week to get through them
    Skewered, one sympathises...
