I just received my largest order for Harvey's patterns... 58... Someone is going to be busy!

A big thanks to many of you who have ordered patterns, Harvey is most appreciative.  The past 2 months I've been outselling Wooden Teddy Bear.  LOL

Notice:  Harvey spoke with WTB and has asked that the price be increased from $3.00 to $3.99 beginning with the new year.  I'll be increasing my price from $2.50 to $3.00.  So, if you need any patterns, be sure to order them by the end of the year.

And for the sake of transparency, as I have shared many times, at $2.50, $2.00 of that went to Harvey and I kept 50 cents.  With the price increase, Harvey will continue to get $2.00 and I'll get $1.00  Sales have been better than I expected and while it doesn't take a ton of my time, it does take time and my web ecommerce vendor takes a cut, along with either PayPal or whatever payment method is used, so I was ending up with virtually nothing.  Which was fine, I didn't start selling the patterns to become wealthy, I did it for Harvey, to give his patterns a 2nd life, and it has worked marvelously, but it would be nice to be compensated a little bit for the work.

Thanks again to those who are enjoying his patterns.

Thanks Scott.  I have enjoyed cutting the puzzles I have gotten.  I got a special one made and I have one of them cut but I need to get a picture of it to share here.  Maybe after this weekend once my Daughter's VB season and career end's - at least one or two more matches to go.

Iggy,

I'm glad this is working out for you.

I think the folks here (including myself) would rather buy from you and and get your service than anywhere else.

I will be putting an order together soon

Good luck

Sam

Glad to see things working out for you and Harvey, did you ever get that other business deal going, RJ

Thanks RJ... You'll have to narrow down which business deal, I have 2 or 3 irons in the fire.  LOL  Mostly just ideas that I usually let fizzle out, but I am pursuing one business venture having nothing to do with puzzles.  My LLC was filed yesterday, so it's official.  As soon as I have news worthy of sharing, I will so that everyone can share in the ride.  ;-)
