Took the plunge and ordered a BCG medium in Rastafari colors. Hope 100€ well spent and I get it in around 10 weeks 
You will not regret it, they make a premium product for sure, that said I am looking forward to getting my Old Mate as I now have access to 2 strains of herb I need 2x grinders.
I just had a friend visit that I gave a SL/x V2.5 to a while ago and showed him the new Oldmate YT video and he said straight away...get me one as the SL/x sucks (even though I gave it to him for free) as it jams up quite often. He said he would rather just bite the bullet and get the OM and not have to worry about grinders again. I got him an orange skateboard bearing to match his Mighty (the only vape I have ever sold and it was to him, converted combuster so Mighty is good for some).

Ah hmmm maybe I should try to convince my roommate to jump in as well... Hard to get someone else to justify even $50 on a grinder let alone 100 or more but he has same issue with SLX, should let him try BCG
The S/S OldMate 3 piece is about the same price as a large aluminium BCG and much cheaper than their S/S versions. Still a lot of money for a grinder but the quality will last longer than the wallet hurt.
The OM is going to have to be good to knock my LBCG from 1st place for grinding, hopefully, we will get our hands on them soon and fall in love with them as much as @felvapes has.

Yeah, but I'm talking about people who use $20 Amazon grinders for many years, I don't think they can comprehend the benefits and cost of steel lol high quality aluminum BCG in the large size might be a better sell in this case... I just fear that the SLX was hardly an upgrade from the sharpstone for them is all
The large aluminium bcg is $140 AUD + $35 AUD shipping (cheapest international) (free local shipping)
The OMD Aroma-3 is SS and $135AUD + $20 AUD ($14USD) international shipping (free local shipping)
Both good options and major upgrades to most grinders especially an el cheapo
The win leans to the OMD for me after using for a month or two (I owned my bcg for 2-3 years? - I got mine about 6-12 months before @LesPlenty got his)

After waffling for far too long, I went with the three-inch Arm Band from Cannabis Hardware. Lots of leverage, grip and no finish to wear or chip off. Grind wise it's listed as producing a fine grind, but like many grinders the less you twist it, the coarser the results. There is, however, a downside as I was warned opening it quickly will cause some of your bud to fly out of the grinder, so one has to go slow when opening it.
The bottom video 3g just looks painful to grind. It looks like there is a lot of effort needed to grind that amount.
A large impact socket might fit that lid, leave the centerpiece in the vice, and pop the base off when needed, just kidding, I would not recommend that to anyone except @felvapes with his prototype spare!
I find any grinder is pretty hard to spin with 3g of decent sticky bud, this looks like 2g per shred would seem about right for ease of starting.
I just ordered another 3-piece for my friend with an orange bearing to match his Mighty, as soon as I showed him the above videos and said I have one on order he said "Get me one" without even asking how much as the other brand name grinder I gave him jams up too quickly and was causing him wrist problems.
Big arse socket and my impact wrench you reckon mate
This thing chews bud pretty quickly and easily
It's impressive even when overloaded (which is the only reason I did that video) and didn't gum up or mash the weed
The other videos show its ease of use/speed pretty well with other loads

I am the beetle in a box that only you can see
It's not necessary a reason to buy one, but the mini herb ripper collection bowl mates perfectly with a Reload
I always thought this was a good idea too,

I'm guessing this one
OLD MATE (formerly Medgrind)
Just stumbled across this in my YT travels, looks very clean and…well mesmerizing when it’s spinning! I did some cursory looking for more info here and didn’t find any. If anyone has more info let us know! https://medicalcannabishardware.com/en-us/collections/all Edited to add new...

How would he prefer that when it's not even released yet?

Presumably neither is the steel BCG that he already pre-ordered... So probably after waiting and research they feel they would prefer another (note they did not say which)
