"...open to the first ten customers". In total, or per day? I know it may seem a daft question but ....Originally Posted by LukeBird
I understood it was 10 per day, and I imagine they would need that volume in order to make sense from a manufacturing perspective,
Twenty days, 10 per day - 200 individually unique pieces in the world!
