I'll get my Joes once I get my Georges in order. This is great...

 

[FrankS]

I hope we gat an update soon from Ray and Tony. I wonder how we're doing?

 

[jaapv]

Judging by the number of posts you should be in Leica territory by now.....😀

 

[dcsang]

Ok.. I'm confused - I see people purchasing JR's (who knows what that is) etc. - I dropped some coin to Ray_g but is this what I was supposed to do ?

Good thing someone posted an alternate title to this thread! I never read anything about that guy Joe/Backalley.... all the 'everyone should own a Canon P' threads he starts! So count me in for sure. Lets see the internal mental conflict he will experience when he's compromised by the Zeiss hardware!!

FrankS... this could be bad for Joe's Canon equipment.. heh!

I'm donating right now.

Done! Let the anguish begin!!

We're a treacherous bunch, aren't we?

I will get an email confirmation noting an adjustment on the cost of postage to nil.

That's what happened with mine. $45 charge followed by a $25 credit. I had only one option on shipping showing when I contributed.

I think you're supposed to select USA as your location. Is that correct, Frank?

[FrankS]

I tried selecting US location, but then it asks for detailed address. I think foreign contributors will be charged and extra $20 shipping, then, like Peter states, they'll receive a second e-mail showing the shipping charge dropped.

If you do that, once you fill in your real address for the CC payment, it reverts to foreign for those with addresses outside the U.S.

Did ANYONE notice that Joe hasn't left a single message today... anywhere...?

It is hard to imagine that he hasn't happened upon these threads and knows what is up.

I would also venture to guess, that no matter what a wonderful idea this is, he may be thinking that it is too much. I guess we all know that this is a collection of small gifts which allow us to say thank you in a big way.

Just a thought.

 

[RJBender]

I just got off the phone with Josh at Popflash. He said they are going to try to fix that problem with international orders today. Right now, they're just doing credits for the shipping charges.

Great idea, Frank. Bought my 4 Joes from PopFlash. Hope we reach our goal and then some.

Later,

hi joe

 

[Branestawm]

My Visa bill just got bigger. It feels great, and quite humbling, to be part of this.

 

[Little Prince]

Just got my 4 Joes at Popflash. Received confirmation. Everything in order.

Whew! For a moment there I was afraid I might be too late and we might have reached the total. This thread has received such rapid response.

I too agree that if not the lens, at least the ZI body should be delivered as a actual gift. Maybe Joe could use the remainder of the total to pick up his own choice of lens (ZI of course!).

An engraving like 'to joe from RFF' is quite nice, though I don't know how it would be done.

Thanks to Frank, Ray and Tony Rose for what must have been quite a nuisance to handle.
