Update #12: Shipping

Posted on September 7, 2011

Hi Everyone!

A number of you have sent me e-mails asking about AOA Products and shipping confirmations received from them.

AOA is a fulfillment provider based in Toledo, Ohio that is handling the kitting and shipping of Lens Loop orders. Olivia and her team are working hard to ship all of your Lens Loops. 

They are progressing in the order in which pledges were received. If you haven't gotten a shipping confirmation e-mail yet, you should have one within the next few days.

If you have any questions regarding your order, please e-mail me directly at vadim@lensloop.com.

Getting the first batch of Lens Loops made and shipped has taken much longer than I or any of my suppliers anticipated. I appreciate your support and patience. 

Best regards,

-Vadim

      Mine arrived last week, superb. Friends love it so will be buying some for them as presents.

      I hope you don't mind, but I wrote up my thoughts on the Lens Loop on my blog - http://slrschool.net/reviews/lens-loop-a-better-camera-strap/

Update #11: Lens Loops coming your way!!!

Posted on August 25, 2011

Hi everyone.

I've got good news.

The straps are done being manufactured and went out to the fulfillment company on Tuesday. Everything is set to begin mailing the week of 29th of August. 

For those of you who ordered via the paypal shopping cart on LensLoop.com, your straps will be shipping the week of the 29th as well.

For those of you who ordered from the Google Checkout shopping cart on LensLoop.com, your straps will be shipping the first week of September.

After that, straps ordered from LensLoop.com will be shipping out directly from inventory in the order that they were received.

Thanks for you support and patience.

I apologize if the delay has caused any of you inconveniences in your summer photography plans.I'm looking forward to your feedback and comments.

Best regards and happy shooting.

Update #9: Ordering Extended 1 Week

Posted on July 25, 2011

I've gotten alot of questions about ordering a Lens Loop now that the campaign is closed.

There is a Paypal shopping cart in place on LensLoop.com for the next week.

You can use the form to pre-order a Lens Loop or add extra connectors or straps to your existing pledge.

Thanks!

Update #8: Surveys Sent!

Posted on July 25, 2011

Hi everyone.

Survey have been sent! As soon as I have most of the responses, I can place an order with the factory and get things rolling.

If you would like to add additional items to your pledge (extra straps, screws, internatonal shipping, etc.), I'll have a form up on LensLoop.com in the next few days to do so.

Thanks for the support!
