Fellas...it looks like we are starting over from scratch. I just received a correspondence from the Bond Experience, and what David had to say makes perfect sense. This was his response to my question if this project can still happen.
I think we would need to get a role call going on people who previously raised there hands....yes, a few new people say they want in, but what about the people on the list that haven't spoken in years. Regardless I can reach out to TF and see if they would still entertain.
I'm going to copy and paste the 3 quantity minimums and 3 different prices that we've been given, and get a role call going. Now to avoid a lot of confusion and unnecessary revisions and steps, I believe that it's the popular opinion lately to aim for the middle number, i.e. better price and feasible quantity. If we go over and beyond, we can adjust accordingly. If we fall short, we can adjust at that point as well. Just say that you're in and for how many and I'll update the list. Thanks. Hope we can still make this one happen.
It was a bit of a chore, but I managed to e-mail every single person on the original list.... I need a drink.
The only member who couldn't have an e-mail delivered to was "Glenn Gervot" I went off the list so maybe it's a misspelling, or perhaps that member is no longer here.
Correction: I did not e-mail MikeG77, because he beat me to the punch and put his name on the list before I could. Apparently he wants this polo as badly as I do haha
I gave it the best push I could guys. Hopefully something comes of it. -{
Hey there MrE, thank you for your efforts with this project. I'm not sure if I'm the only one but no email has come through to me? Be that as it may, I'm still in.

Cah, I do have a sent message to you in my sent folder, but thanks for the heads up, I'll delete some old messages in case that's stopping any of the new ones from being delivered. A couple members have paid me the courtesy to say that they need to drop out from the project. I appreciate the transparency, makes the count a lot easier.

I think it might be a good idea to keep the 'if 55 unit pricing is reached' entries on a separate list as they really don't contribute to the overall head count until we get closer to 55
Let's keep posting the pricing/quantities so people know and don't have to scroll through the thread to try and sort it out. The pricing is about and around the amounts listed, and not exact.
(LIST 1) about 670 euros, 753 US dollars, 604 pounds (45 units)

In my honest opinion you are adding more confusion than necessary with that. Our chances of reaching 80 are negligible. there's really only 2 categories of entries here: a)happy to pay €670, and b) happy to pay €505. Add the number of each together and you get the total headcount.
The reason I split them is because one list is deceiving. For example we could have 48 total, but if 12 were only happy to pay €505, that would still means no polo.
I also wouldn't bother with the currency conversions as they will most definitely change. If this project happens it will probably take a few months.
Everyone should keep in mind also that we can reasonably expect new & higher prices from TF. The current prices are from mid 2017.

I don't disagree with you, but as far as price increase goes, let's not speculate too much as that could discourage people from joining, and we haven't officially heard from Luigi yet. I'll revise the list back to the 2 categories.
Pretty sure 99% of people know what polo this is, but if you're stumbling onto this for the first time here's
a clip off youtube from Quantum of Solace where Bond arrives on the scene sporting this fantastic polo for the first time.
Hi can someone remind me what the material is for the polo. I would not be willing to pay 500 quid if it’s just cotton.
Cotton/Linen blend I believe. Great for warmer weather, and it hangs on the body better than cotton as well,
it's not as rigid or stiff. A lot of people think it's just like the Sunspel, but it feels quite different. The Tom Ford
is a lot nicer IMO.
