Sorry for that. We do know how many backers there were initially and how long it took to get through them.

Based off that, I guess one hopper for every 3 invoices.

Edit: just a guess, probably on the low side.
I actually have one hopper preordered with three total invoices. I placed a couple orders for a leather sleeve and batteries for my Vaposhop hopper.

Now, my Nov 2015 order has a #24,000+ invoice number.

My invoice from three weeks ago was in the 27,000 range. Does that mean only 3,000 purchases in 8 months? Perhaps my reverse bell curve theory should be modified as there doesn't seem to be much uptick in orders for the holiday 2015 season.

My personal # is 2 hoppers ordered with 3 invoices total.. :)

3 weeks ago was #27000? Wow, I would have expected much higher numbers.

Who knows, but it's fun to guess. :)

So I emailed Caroline about upgrading to priority shipping last night. She responded a few minutes ago saying sorry but your order has already shipped. I just sent a reply asking for a tracking number so fingers crossed. 6/3/15 plain Ti preorder

My guess is that my order (and probably most people who recently had their address confirmed Sunday) was already boxed up and sitting with a bunch of ready to ship orders and they didn't feel like finding it and sending it priority. I get it no big deal. I've waited 13+ months I can wait a week or so.

I'm only worried about my most recent stash - traveled with it and didn't have a mason jar so I put it in a ziploc bag (and keep in my pocket!) inside of another ziploc with a dryer sheet and now my herbs taste like friggin dryer sheets!! Help!

:uhoh:

I doubt there is much you can do to help that out. The only thing I could think of is put some orange peel in with your stash for a few hours, maybe overnight. It might help take away the dryer sheet taste and replace it with an orange flavor, or it might just make it taste like orange dryer sheets.

Yea I would hate to use this stuff for my first hopper hopping. I have had a menthol-like taste/feeing in my throat all day it sucks! Hopefully my grinder isn't ruined either lol

Be strong! Be strong! It's a marathon and you're at 25.5 miles. Listen...you can hear the crowd cheering for you at the finish line. you can't see it, but it's there up ahead.

Try humming the Rocky theme to yourself while drinking raw eggs and doing one-handed push-ups to pass the time.

Or something.

I'm guessing there is a hold up on the blue ti units. Ive seen confirmations for after my date of 6.3.15 but none for blue yet. I wonder if there is a high demand for blue ti. Anyone else waiting for the same color that pre ordered in early june?

Congrats! I think you're the first June 2015 preorder with shipping confirmation here. I just checked Reddit and there are more posted there. Hopefully (and I expect) many more to follow!

Thanks! Been a long time coming. Supposed to get it Friday. Here's to hoping it runs strong forever. I'm starting to get sick of my solo and pax 1 haha

Humming didn't work and those one arm push-ups are a bitch, so I emailed Caroline for a status. And she answered that my order was picked up today, and I will receive tracking info after it is scanned by USPS!!!

So close...so close...

And huge props to Caroline for taking the time to answer me.
