Yes. This little stunt is just a teaser to introduce the product. The full line will have them available from the distributor, Sterling Gaming, in many standard sizes, and in non-standard sizes/shapes through a custom order.
 
Update on the Cases

I can't leave well enough alone and kept making changes to the product. Well anyway they are finally getting done the way I want them and I hope that the way Jay would have approved of.

Here are the next four that have shipped - 2008-002, 2008-003, 2008-004, and 2008-005

You know who you are so need to attach a name to the case.

Beautiful! What's the colour code of 002 in comparison to your charts?

But man, they look good! I can't wait to get my hands on mine!

The brown one with GMAC is mine and I love it. I also like the way it protects the cues. It isn't a prolite but the cues are super safe and that's what I really want
 
Bad Transaction With John Barton ;-)

John Barton promised me my new Flowers case weeks ago and now he won't answer PMs or emails after taking my money. (just kidding)
-------------------------------------------------------------

Sorry, I went on vacation with everyone's money and gambled it all away on some kind of Chinese electronic roulette involving Disney characters. :-)

Not really but it's better than what I have to say right now.

I screwed up.

I asked Jiasen to produce these special order cases right in the middle of their busy season. They said "no problem" as all the Chinese factory owners always say.

However it meant that they had to push aside other orders that were there before ours.

So we are delayed. I have now brought all the J.Flowers orders in-house at JB Cases where my team will finish them.

This will take a little while longer but I will be overseeing everything personally in our shop.

Jiasen will produce the production line later after their busy season is over.

Anyone who would like a refund please don't hesitate to ask for it.

I will up date you further on the progress as I can. I will also contact each of you individually.

Thanks and my apologies for the putting the cart in front of the horse.

John Barton

P.S. Here are a few teaser pics to show you that we are indeed making progress.

Honesty is the best policy! There is no shame in admitting you screwed up! As a customer, I'd rather know you be upfront rather than wait for something that may or may not come.

Well.. unless u traded all the payments for wheat bucks.. then :bash:.
 
Got a buddy looking for a nice case. Anyone wanting to sell their
place in line please PM me. Nice cases John. If you have any for
sale at the introductory price, please let me know.
 
I have a feeling that a lot of members in this forum are still interested in buying these great-looking cases (me included). I couldn't pick them up when you were selling these because of limited funds.

JB, I do not know if you can still offer introductory pricing, but perhaps you can do a feeler thread and see if you can offer us a group buy? Sounds like a win-win situation to me~
 
To those wanting to order. Right now I am not taking any more orders on these. I really need to focus on the orders I have and get those settled first. If you want to simply be on the list when I start taking orders again then please just email me and I will add you to the list and your spot will be reserved. No money and if you don't want the spot it's no biggie - everyone else just moves up a number. But I can't get into any discussions about the orders with you until I get these knocked out.

If anyone is going to sell their spot please let me know that you plan to do this. If we have already done your case then someone will have to take it. If the case hasn't been started then I will accept changes.

Thanks everyone for the patience.

John

I am fairly certain it was C-016. John has stated the leathers are dyed in house so each case will vary slightly. I tried to stay with the classic look. I really like the two-tone above also.

One more recommendation. These cues are held so well, I warn you not to press the butts too deeply or you will have an effort to get them out. The case is snug and secure with the butts very easily inserted.

You aren't going to damage the leather by putting your butts in bumper down. I did it this way because it's the way Jay Flowers did it. You might get an indentation in the leather IF your cues are long enough to touch the top.

This case isn't made for the cues to go in joint down unless you want to put a spacer in it to keep the butts high enough.

Putting your cues in the case joint down is so 90's :-)

Thanks for the review. If the shoulder pad doesn't hold up then I'll send you a new one for free.
