I'm waiting for them to reply to my e-mail from over the weekend. I'm giving them slack since it's been a long weekend because of the 4th. I'm trying to see if I can get a set of each color so I can put up photos before everyone buys, that way you will know what you will be buying.
On the forum side of things, I think once I get things finalized with Spur Nametapes, someone else will need to take over for the money collection and payments. It was pointed out to me that as a 'junior' member it might put turn people off since I'm not too well-known. I think once we square that away, we can have an 'official' AR15.com groupbuy for these patches. Believe me, I'm impatient as hell for these patches. I want one to stick on my bag before I go on vacation in late August, so the sooner the better. But don't worry, I'm working on this for everyone. If it doesn't work with them, I'll find someone else who will. :) |

Just got off the phone with Teresa at Spur. She's going to see if she can run off a patch of each kind for me so that I can take some pictures to show everyone. I'm slightly hesitant about the Multicam patches. Teresa told me they are having trouble getting the twill Multicam fabric for patches since the Army is buying it all up for our guys going to the 'Stan. They do have a ripstop fabric they can use. I told her that should be fine and to go ahead and try and get one done for me. I don't think it will look too bad. She will hopefully be getting back to me in the morning.
I guess the next step is to get someone here to step and run the money portion. Once we figure that out, I'll send the contact info to them and we can set up the group buy here on the forums and get everything squared away. |

I unfortunately cannot run the money end. A suggestion is (if the supplier agrees) to have a "code word" or coupon that ARFCOMMERS can add to their order to get whatever pricing you have worked out. Keep us up to date, I'm now in for at least 5 |

I'm going to look at some other vendors I know, just as a backup. I don't think that they are going to leave us hanging, but I don't like having to wait and pester for answers. |

Ok, just got off the phone with Teresa at Spur Name Tapes. They are sending me a sample of each patch so I can take some pictures for you guys before you commit!
We will have to have one person do the payment for the order. They will not do piece-meal orders, they want to know how many they need to make so they can run them all at one time. I'll check about setting up the group buy again. I understand I don't have a 1000+ post count, but I'm a good guy.. really.. stop laughing. 
If anyone would like to talk to me over the phone, mail me a letter, see me F2F, in order to get a warm and fuzzy, I am more than willing to oblige once I get permission to start up the group buy. If you do not feel safe with me handling this, than I would be more than happy to hand it off to someone else who is more trustworthy on the board: I'm an infantryman, not an accountant, so handling other people's money is not something I prefer to do.  But I will do it if need be, I've got no problem with that.
I'm guessing the sample patches will reach me sometime next week, considering today is Thursday. I'll take some photos of the patches as well as one or two of the other things I've ordered from them previously so you guys can see their standards. |

Guy:
Thanks for the update. I'm willing to "risk" it...we know where to find you .
I guess I see their point. Well, as I said, I'm in for at least four, more likely five depending on the multicam version. Thanks for the good work! Edit to add: As much as we all hate it, you might consider PP. I hate it too, but they do offer a convinience to someone like us who isn't really set up for something like a group buy. If not, I'm in no matter what, but just an idea. Thanks again! |

Hey everyone, just wanted to bump this before it goes necrotic.
I got a USPS mail notice today letting me know there is a package for me. I think that it is the sample patches I bought... otherwise I was sleep-buying geardo stuff again. 
I have a bunch of stuff I have to get done tomorrow, so hopefully I will be able to grab it before I leave. My unit mail here is horrible about when they decide to open/close, so hopefully I will be able to stop by before I have to leave for the weekend. If the package is the patches, I will try and get patches up this weekend or Monday at the latest. If it's not the patches, I'll take a picture of those goodies for you guys.
Once I get the patch pictures up, I'll petition again for a board sponsored group buy. ETA: Page 4 be mine? |

Still not here. I think they may used my prior shipping address they had on file, which is my wife's house. I will drive down there tomorrow and check the mail there and see if it's come. If it hasn't, I'll e-mail Spur and ask when they sent it. All I have is the receipt, so it might have only been sent out a day or two ago.
ETA: The package was my new Ops-Core helmet.

Ok guys! I got another package in the mail today.
I ripped it open and guess what was inside? 
I immediately grabbed one of them and slapped one on my pack. 
And then realized you guys would probably like close up pictures, so here they are. Forgive the crappy photos. It was a little dark in the room so I had to use the flash... Black and White 
Tan 
OD 
Multicam 
Comparison of Tan, Spur Multicam Calico Jack, and Multicam 
Personally, I think the tan and black and white look the best. I'm going to ask them to change the Multicam's outter stitching to the spice brown as the light tan just looks weird. When I get back from class tonight I'll e-mail again about setting up the group buy and I'll confirm the $4 price for the patches with Spur. |

Call Linda at http://www.camotech.com. Since it's only text, she might be able to skip the $25.00 setup fee. Otherwise, she can do any color, any size/shape. She has a 7 patch minimum order, but if it doesn't require custom setup, she might not even have to do that. Her number is listed on the web site. She does a lot of the one-off or small job patches that we use to test colors when testing uniforms.

Hey guys. I e-mailed the mods again about setting the group buy up. Once they give the nod of approval I'll have sign-up, pay-up dates.
In the meantime, I know everyone is excited, but PLEASE don't PM or e-mail me about what patches you want and how many. I'm not keeping of track of anything until we have the go-ahead from the mods to do a group buy. Believe me, once I get the thumbs-up, I'll be ready and willing to get this thing rolling finally. |
