Amici Veloci Buff Update 12/30/06

[DirtDiva]

So, when do they ship?

(I'd almost forgotten about them completely , but then I was paying my credit card bill... )

[SadieKate]

They'll probably ship from Spain near the end of the month and then Miss Yellow will need to dispurse.

Word to the wise, anytime you deal with a custom item where the actual WORK is being down in another country plan 48 hrs for each and every topic interaction.

SK - Hello, Buff, I've got your answering machine once again and as usual. I need to know X.
24 hrs later, Buff calls - OK, let me get this clear, blah-blah-blah.
Another 24 hrs later, Buff calls/emails back - Spain said blah-blah-blah.

Payment was delayed 4 days because I couldn't get anyone on the phone and even told the answering machine (as usual) that I needed to talk to them ASAP because I was going to be gone for 2 days and could not take any calls nor was I going to give them a credit card number over a cell phone on the off chance we could talk. They, of course, proceeded to call my cell phone during these 2 days multiple times (thank goodness for silent mode). Only time they really put pedal to the metal. OK, rant off. AG listened to most of it already. The Buffs are in production as we speak.

Cool. I'll be patient for another month then. Thanks for the hard work!

Buffs have arrived!

They are so puuuuuurty...hubby says the red one makes me look very fast and that the black one looks a little...bovine.

Lifesgreat and I are planning to package this weekend and I'll ship Monday or Tuesday. International orders will be shipped via the Sierra Nevada AV HQ (Trekhawk).

And be warned: my dogs are shedding like crazy right now, so you could get a little black Lab and yellow Lab hair in your envelope with your order. They're clean dogs, so the shed fur is clean and won't contaminate your Buffs.

Respectfully Submitted,
Rocky Mtn Regional Manager of Amici Veloci

PS I really like "Amici Veloci" spelled backwards... Icolev Icima. That may be the name of my next bicycle.

...hubby says the red one makes me look very fast and that the black one looks a little...bovine.

Oh geeze, is the black one gonna make me look fat?!?

[Velobambina]

Thanks for all the time and effort you have and will put into this! I'm eagerly awaiting my Buffs.

[7rider]

Wow....You guys were reading my mind. I was just thinking "Hey...I wonder what the status of the AV buffs is?"
And lo and behold! A magical update did appear!
But..."bovine"???
Yikes. Well, I take heart in knowing that it will more than likely be under my helmet at all times.
Thanks for all the hard work put into this.

Oh geeze, is the black one gonna make me look fat?!?

Hee Hee - does this buff make my head look fat??

So if I wear my red and black ones at the same time, I would be a fast bovine?

[yellow]

Ladies, ladies. It's not bovine in a bad way. It's so dominantly black and white it almost looks black-and-white cow pelt like. That's not bad. You can mess with the way it's folded and turned and get more red showing. It's so versatile.

I go back and forth about which one I like better. They are so different from each other.

[crazycanuck]

Ohhh..funky! Happy dance will be done when it's not so hot.

Thank you for organizing & shipping the products. Trek-

Sounds like a Russian racer boy...

Thanks for all your hard work, everyone!
