I'll refer to these when I put the list together. If you signed up earlier, I'll use that for your number. If you select a #, I'll reserve it for you. If I missed you, I'll get you signed up. I'm not sure about payments, as I had problems with paypal when I used it for selling Fantasy Flies a while back. They were double-billing and would not make it right, so I had to make the refunds. I dumped them. Now I take checks and am doing just fine that way. I've actually had time to tie up a number of them for customers recently. Working on a 19/0 pattern for a long-time family friend, too. So, for this initial run, if you want to send a check, please do. But I prefer you wait until I have the DVDs ready in my hands, if you know what I mean. Your email will hold your order and SN.. I also intend to sell them also from the Platte River Fly Shop here in Casper- http://www.wyomingflyfishing.com/. He will charge me a %-age for handling sales and the $-transaction. Again, that portion on his site is not up yet, due to I ain't got 'em done yet (and he's been bugging me too to get them done). He'll be able to process orders and electronic payments. He also sells my Fantasy Flies- again, when I have some for him to sell. LOL Trust me- Fantasy Flies are not a high-volume sort of sale, like commercial fishing flies or t-shirts. Buggs calls them "Rare and Unusual"- like the tier.
