Well, I would hope the Brits all get theirs by the 7th of August. I have the trauma of going to the post office with 50 parcels to look forward to yet......

Could be a lot longer for our friends in the States, as I have no idea how good the US postal service is (most have specified normal postage). I know when I ran my ebay business stuff used to take about 8-10 days to be delivered.

Thursday night, and still not here. Getting hacked off.

They used 'City Link' couriers - which have to be the very worse inho. I could have walked to the factory and back by now.

The large crystal has finally arrived - it was delivered to the wrong address!!!!

ITS absolutly SUPERB. I havent seen anything better in terms of a collectable. i am over the moon with its quality and its sheer class. Details that dissapear on the smaller block are 'crystal clear' (sic) . its really quite unbelievable.

This is the best thing ever. i am trying to work out how to photograph it so that it shows its in its best clarity but obviously photographing a glass object with millions of time glass reflection inclusions is extremly difficult.

If you were at all considering ordering a large one, but asnt sure, let me tell you - you wouldnt be disspaointed.

update to follow as the wife is insiting I go to Tescos with her now.....

You need to put it on a rotating turntable, and video it

Some of thge images show reflections, and internal refraction of light, which is much more prevelant in photographs. This item is so good I'm considering getting it professionally photographed....















The dog seems impressed (and it weighs about the same!!!!!!!!!!)
