Cable ordering is officially closed. Whew !! The rest of this is mostly cable trivia (since some people found this interesting) If your not interested, delete prior to boring yourself <snicker> I have not added my personal cable order yet. It will certainly be around 100. But before my order, here is what you guys did: 46 customers ordered 1780 cables Therefore, the average order was just under 39 cables 3 foot cables were the most popular at 494 followed closely by 2 foot cables at 460 278 different combination of cable color, heat shrink, and length were ordered. The most popular cables were: # 1 - 2 foot blue / black heat shrink @ 68 # 2 - 3 foot green / black heat shrink@ 64 # 3 - 2 foot red / black heat shrink @ 56 The biggest order was 128 cables The smallest was 4 cables. In addition to the USA, cables are being shipped internationally to four countries. Since we reached 1000 cables, I was able to get a 50 cent per-cable discount over the already low prices I quoted you. I split the savings two ways: 1. everyone will get an instant 25 cent per cable rebate on their order. So in effect, the price is 25 cents a cable lower. I am applying the other 25 cents per-cable toward the logo printing cost. Paul was gracious and agreed to pay for the logo printing. But, at 1780 cables, it was a chunk of cash. The 25 cents per cable will significantly reduce his cost for giving us all logos. I am not keeping any of the savings because I am already making enough on the deal to buy all my own cables AND put some cash in my pocket to boot. So, it looks like a win-win deal for everyone. For those that missed out or didn't need cables this time around, I will do this again when enough people are ready. Look for additions to the cable page before then. For those that might want solid colors, I will also have a line of somewhat less cool Wise Guy Synth branded cables. :) Many thanks to everyone that participated. My spreadsheet balances exactly to the number of each cable ordered. So, I fully anticipate no mistakes despite 278 different cables to sort and ship. Stooge Larry (I must be crazy)
