Hi Rod, Please do not be alarmed. We announced that small, medium and large Lens Guards were shipped to those who ordered only smaller sizes. The additional sizes are being prepared for shipment on Friday the 18th. We wanted to ship your order in its entirety to avoid confusion. We will notify all supporters when their orders ship. Thank you again for generously supporting our campaign. If you have any further questions, please feel free to ask. Regards, Michael Dowell Co-Owner of DeluxGear

Posted project update #11We're funded. Thank you!!
Post CommentTo all our backers, you each helped us reach our funding goal and we just want to say a big "Thank You!!"
We're already busy working on the molds for our new Lens Guards. We'll send updates as we get closer to having your Guard or Bumper ready to ship.
Over the next few days, we'll also be contacting most of you individually to be sure we're clear on exactly what reward you should receive.
And again, thanks for helping us. We couldn't have gotten to this point without you.

Posted project update #10The Home Stretch
Post CommentWe're nearing the last two days to back our Kickstarter project. And we're at 92% of funding. We're going to make it!
But, though you are already a supporter, we can still use your help. If you know of anyone who has been considering pledging, please remind them that now's the time!
Thank you!!!

Posted project update #9New, updated sizing chart
Post CommentNot sure what size Lens Guard or Lens Bumper you need? We've just updated the "fit chart" to add 1) sizes you need if you're using your lens hood (sunshade) and 2) new lenses that came out in 2011. Plus, we've incorporated all the work that's been underway to finalize the dimensions of the new Lens Guards.
Check out the sizing chart at www.deluxgear.com/lens-guard-lens-compatibility

Corey, Let's make it easier (and less expensive!). For what you want, simply select 1) the $25 pledge for the Large Bumper, and 2) the $80 pledge for the Jumbo and XL Lens Guards. Does that make sense? Sorry about the confusion. The $150 level is to get a good deal on 3 of the largest Lens Guards, like a couple of Jumbos and an XX-L. - Tom

Now... 6 days to hit 100%. How soon can we reach it? If you have any friends that have been thinking about jumping in, let them know that now is the time! The project closes at midnight (eastern US time) on Sunday, March 4.

Posted project update #7We've hit 60%!
Post CommentJust want to say "thank you!" to every one of our backers.
And with this update, we especially want to give a big "shout out" to our most recent backers, who pushed us to 25% of our funding goal, then 50% and beyond -- including David, Lou, Avi, Erik, Pat, Ronjon, Clyde, Betsy, Lou, Bruce, Gemma, Jeff, Barry, and Julie.
10 days left.... can we hit 80% this weekend?

I have not received my order and you indicated that orders have been shipped out. Can you verify my order and when I might expect to receive it. Thank you.
