Smile Enamel Forum Badge Question

Wilf,

Apologies if I have missed any updates, but I just wondered if there is any news on the badges, at all?

With thanks,

Peter

Hi Pete,
No you haven't missed any updates, the 3 weeks they said it would take is up on Monday so if I don't hear anything then, I will contact them again, once they have arrived I will let everyone know ( those that ordered that is !! ) and we can sort out payment arrangements. I hope to bring news next week anyway, yours in anticipation,
Wilf.

No... those are the known fakers. The genuine ones are marked 'Birmingdon'.

Hi Don,
Thanks for asking but the initial order of 50 has sold out, I am going to post a photo of the badge when I get them then I will start a list to see if we get enough orders to justify getting another 50 made. I will put your order for 4 on the top of my new list, I'm sorry that's all I can offer at the moment, all the best for now,
Wilf.
