Hello everyone!
Great news today! If you have or haven't been following the progress of Bitcoin Neon signs, here is a TLDR: They're finally finished!
Group Buy Progress to Begin Manufacturing - COMPLETED ----------------------------------------------------------------- 10/10 Signs Sold! 0 More Sign Purchases Needed! QUOTA FULFILLED! ----------------------------------------------------------------- Backstory: Being from New York City, I am surrounded by all of the colors of the spectrum. For me, this was a no brainer, and I decided shops deserve to have the bit of flair they deserve. While the traction with BTC used to be slow, these days everything has changed. More people are buying, selling, adopting, and converting their storefronts to accept BTC at their locations. It is huge, and there is no obvious way other than stickers that shout out "HEY! WE ACCEPT BTC!". After much talking and discussion with my glass guy, I have the following information ready to share with you:In order to get a reasonable deal and great pricing for signs, I need at least 25 buys of signs to make this happen. Otherwise, the glass guy will be charging over $320 for a custom design sign such as this. The sign is huge and runs about 2 feet in both directions (an arm and a half length wise). This will bring the prices to the following: $250.00 - not including shipping. Bitpay will automatically calculate shipping to your location for you. All items will be shipped via:UPS for Domestic USA orders USPS Express Mail International for those outside of the country. Ships from California and New York. Everything will have tracking, guaranteed. Estimated Shipping Date: Late September Other information:I currently run, and own, Cryptocables and have been doing business for many years online in e-commerce. For more information about myself, please read the thread located here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=195520.0 if you are interested. Additionally, I moderate and represent a moderator of a major LTC pool located on #freenode. If you have any questions, I am usually there (or sleeping) under the nick #freenode - crypt0queen. Feel free to chat with me at any time. Let's change the way how people view storefronts on Bitcoin. It needs to be more widely accepted everywhere, and I am hoping that this design will at least help spark people's curiosity even if they don't know what it is.
8/12/2013 UpdateWe met the quota of 10 signs to make this happen! Thanks everyone for being so awesome! 10/23/2013As of today, Cryptocables is shipping these signs full throttle. Want to grab one from us? Come visit! http://www.cryptocables.com

Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the
subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The
subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

i was going to buy one but then, ships in October? a bit of a wait eh?
Hey Chang, It's a bit of a wait, yeah, for two reasons: To keep an average price for a sign thats not too much because of size (2ft x 2ft), and, lastly, its easier for my glass guy to do them in bulk orders vs one by one. This way if I just give him all the requests at once, they'll all be out at the same time, and folks won't be paying with their newborn for a giant sign that usually retails for around 400 for it's size. :D

One at a time. I had to see if this would be a success first before proceeding with others. I plan for a new design revamp at the beginning of the year, though, this current one is pretty nice as is.

If you want me to put down a different importation value number on it I will do it (I rarely do), but keep in in if something happens on the way there it would effect the Insurance price it sets on the object from the shipping company.
