Hey! Remember this?

Here's what we're talking about:

This is a heavy all metal badge - not a thin magnetic badge. ~~You would have to make a trip to the hardware store for mounting hardware.~~ UPDATE: All badges will include mounting hardware!

I haven't calculated out the final price to the penny, but it should be around $25 or so. This will NOT include shipping to you! I'll try to deliver these in person at NEMINI meets if at all possible.

The badges were ordered based on the names submitted before the site went down. I should have them soon.

And remember: You have to agree not to put it on your car until it actually hits 100K, because otherwise, that would be cheating...

Here's who I had recorded were interested:
*=confirmed
*Jerseygirl (delivered)
*Rob3004 (2) (delivered)
*Fraid_A_Oaks
*007MINI
*Geowit (delivered)
dkstone
schatzy62

I know not everyone is back online here yet, so those listed, please chime in here when you're back so that I know you still want this.

I've got a waiting list for those who didn't get in on this, so unclaimed badges will be sold to them after a reasonable amount of time...

Waiting list for next order:
Second To None
Mini Joe
ctmini

Don't forget to put me down for 2.

1 for the car and 1 to display with my Mini collection

007MINI · « **Reply #2 on:** October 09, 2009, 07:52:02 PM »

yep - in for 1.

geowit · « **Reply #3 on:** October 09, 2009, 08:10:42 PM »

Yeah! Still in for one.

Second to none · « **Reply #4 on:** October 10, 2009, 02:35:06 PM »

I'm in, in about 7k!

cute, I got eighty thousand more miles to motor until then.

Fraid_A_Oaks · « **Reply #6 on:** October 16, 2009, 10:19:54 PM »

I'm still in for one

Edit: Forgot I changed my user name from MiniBertile.

First post updated. schatzy62 has re-registered, just not checked in here on this thread yet. I'll send a PM. Looks like dkstone (Trevor) has not come back to nemini yet, but I think I can reach him on facebook...

Update: Post office tried to deliver these Thursday while I was at work. Left a card for me to sign, which I did, and then I left the signed card in the mailbox. I assumed they would deliver them Friday, but they didn't, but they took the signed card. Great. !@#$%& post office... Hopefully they'll show up today...

I bet you get a notice in the mail that the signature card could not be delivered due to insufficient postage.

The post office came through today! When I saw the mail truck, I ran out to the curb (bare feet) and met the carrier at my mailbox.

So I have the package and the badges look great! First deliveries will be at Nutt's this Thursday...

Franticfreddy · « **Reply #10 on:** October 20, 2009, 09:43:47 PM »

Paul, You still have me on the list? I hope?
Not that I need it yet. Still have 30000 miles to go.

Next badge to work on is on for the most money put into a MINI. A "Big Spender Badge"!

PaulGraz · « **Reply #11 on:** October 20, 2009, 09:48:34 PM »

Fred, I think I have you on the Philly MINI list - but I don't have my master list handy - will check tomorrow

Woohoo! Looking forward to getting mine Thursday... even if I can't put it on Nittany for quite a while.

I suspect Manny would be first in line for this one when you look at daWorks!

LOL!

You know, when I first read the title to this thread my dyslexia had me seeing "MINI Mile high club".

Needless to say I thought that this was a rather bold statement to be posting on the front of a MINI.

I was thinking that I would need to schedule a trip to Denver.

JerseyGirl · « **Reply #16 on:** October 23, 2009, 08:05:00 AM »

The badges look great! Looking forward to reaching 100K so I can put mine on. Thanks for organizing this Paul.

MiniManny · « **Reply #17 on:** October 23, 2009, 02:02:09 PM »

Thank God, I just got back in time for this group buy. lol

Mini Joe · « **Reply #18 on:** October 23, 2009, 02:19:00 PM »

Put me down for one on the next order, I am running 80k
I may hit 100k before the end of the year. I can't stop driving my Mini
My wife just got a new car and we still ride in the mini all the time.
I tried to talk her into a Clubman but she wanted a 4x4 for the beach.
When is the Crossman coming out?

Thanks for setting up the (new) website. It looks good just like the old one. I come here when I am looking for advice.

Mini Joe

All: I'm dropping off a few of these to PhillyMINI members who were included on the group buy tomorrow at their "Cooper Cup" rally. If anyone from here is going to be there, let me know and I'll bring yours too.

Is anyone out there in touch with Trevor (DKStone)? He has not yet re-registered here on NEMINI yet, and I'm wondering if he still wants this. I'm sure he's over 200K by now...

ctmini · « **Reply #20 on:** November 17, 2009, 09:48:08 AM »

I'll take it off your hands if he doesn't show up.

UberFisch · « **Reply #21 on:** November 17, 2009, 09:59:33 AM »

I could be a tool and put one of these on my Volvo.

151k, w00t!

I've added you to the waiting list - but there were 2 people ahead of you... And over on PhillyMINI there's 4 or 5 people waiting. It's not really enough to get the same price ($22) - but after Jan 1 I'll be looking into getting more and we'll see what kind of numbers we have by then.

C Everett · « **Reply #23 on:** June 11, 2010, 12:37:56 PM »

Once the ODO hits 100k would I still qualify for one? Even tho C Ev's getting a new plant?

PaulGraz · « **Reply #24 on:** June 11, 2010, 12:47:00 PM »

Sure...

I guess it's good that you bumped this - I've been too busy to deal with it lately. I still have badges from the original order that didn't get delivered. (Of course I didn't get paid for them yet either...)
