Hey everyone! Let me start off by saying I apologize to everyone who has PM'ed me and I haven't responded. I haven't been on xda in a while, and after this post I plan to sort through all of them.

Second. I appreciate everyone who has picked one of these up and glad to see they are a hit, as I stated, this was just a fix for me and its nice to see they are for everyone else too!

That being said ...

Third. To everyone who experienced a delay in orders, let me first say I'M SORRY! Orders were coming in waaaaay faster then I had ever anticipated and way faster then I was prepared for, I'm a one man army and had no idea the demand, the product availability was there, I made sure of that, but the work involved in filling those orders was too much all at once, orders were literally flooding in through here and eBay, my phone notifications for paypal were buzzing around the clock, I have a full time + job, two puppies and a wife (who thankfully helped me with orders nightly) we would get the days orders batched packaged, addressed (huge pain in the ass) and organized, lay in bed and boom 10+ more orders, and we were doing this every night in a small window of time. On top of using my lunch break everyday to run to the post office to ship orders. (Lol lost a few pounds)

So I switched to bulk shipping, i let orders pile up for 2 - 3 days and ship on the 3rd - 4th day, this was honestly the only economical way to do it, until orders placed from the 11th - 16th were bulk Shipped and I had the USPS actually pick them up, in an attempt to save a few dollars in gas (I drive a V8 Chevrolet Avalanche) as well as time, and unbeknownst to me, the orders never made it to their destinations. This exploded into a frenzy of emails and PM's from people wanting to know what is going on, i didn't know, and the USPS had no information for me ... so on top of current orders I was trying to get to the bottom of the past orders and fix the error, which set everything back due to damage control, and i wasn't informed of this problem until weeks past orders should have reached the buyers. So by then, people were pissed, damage was done. But for the most part people were understanding and patient, and that is appreciated! Needless to say, having USPS pick up shipments is no longer an option I use.

Aside from that, throw in the holidays, work life, family life, personal life, traveling etc. And I had a recipe for disaster. An time to log into XDA was non-existent, wish I should have made time to log on, because of my buyers on here and I do apologize! On that note, anyone on here interested in buying one, please purchase through eBay, going PM to PM to get addresses and trying to match user names to paypal addresses was impossible, organization is key and there was no way to have it through PM's.

Blah blah blah, the story goes on, somewhat still to this day, but a better system is in place. I appreciate the people who were patient and fully understand the ones who weren't, when I order something online, I expect it and I get excited to receive it, any wait and I'm all over the seller. This endeavor gave me a little insight at the life of a busy eBay seller, and I'm a little more understanding with them now lol.

P.S.

I know I promised further development with products, and I have dabbled, but honestly I haven't had time, with a little bit of a better system now, I hope to be able to play around with a few more product ideas and hopefully bring them to fruition.

Side Note:

I had a PM from a user on here about the camera hole problem, I have no problem with the camera on my Gear, but once I saw this issue I used the vinyl leftover from the clasp protectors speaker cutout and put that little sticker over my camera hole in the watch band covers it perfectly. Kind of like a two for one. Try it out!
