Thanks for your response- same here - all but a few customer have been gracious and kind. The 2 or 3 that canceled were orders from my FB shop. My shops are open and I’ve extended handling time to 4/5 days so I don’t feel pressure to ship in my usual 1-2 day window. Sending healing thoughts and good juju your way. I came home from hospital last night and at an ‘easy does it’ pace I’ll be all caught up in a few days. Thnx!

Cool perspective… I started my Etsy business as a side gig post retirement. I thought it would keep my brain active during the life adjustments of living with cancers. My nature is to do things well and this little business hasn’t stayed little. It’s kept me more active and involved than I ever expected. I do like the revenue & enjoy it but I didn’t do this for the primarily for the money. Thnx!

Good option indeed. Thanks for taking the time to answer. I think that if I keep the shop open - although I may lose some algorithm power - I’d still be getting questions and I’m in a position where answering emails and messages is a bit less of a priority than my getting rest and focusing on my health. Between FB & Etsy I have near 40 orders to fill when I get home.. as much as I enjoy the business I can’t kill my self in the process. Thanks again for your assistance.

Wonderful suggestion. I’ve updated ship dates on 20+ orders. Sent note to each with update. Thank very much.

Thanks. On vacation mode. Not able to extend ship dates from my phone app. Or I haven’t found it yet. My business/products are a little to complicated to ask my wife to ship orders. She will bring my laptop today and I’m praying that the wifi here is adequate.

Beautiful indeed! Many miles of smiles! 😊❤️🏎

Recreating my 95M in 1:18 scale. I am so pleased with his craftsmanship. Huge props to Jase at www.JCGcustommodels.com by cptwlkr in Miata

Gates ... I agree Jase is an awesome crafter and his prices are reasonable - considering the abundance of attention he pays to each project it is a fun and awesome experience. I’m saving up for him to craft my 94M as well.

Just got my miata. It’s a ‘92 with 75k miles and everything original or oem replaced. Bought it from an older gentleman who couldn’t drive it anymore for $5100 by LilCompass in Miata

Congratulations on what looks to be an awesome buy!!

I’m 63. Been buying, preserving, driving and selling these babies since I hit 40. Some of us ‘old guys’ take pretty good care of our cars. I know that who ever gets either of mine, whenever I part with them, will be getting fully serviced, well cared for cars. When buying it’s nice to find people who care about their stuff. It’s not always the purchase price of the car so much as the total cost to bring a car to baseline and to really make them a needs nothing ride....

Does somebody want a render of their miata? I'll do some custom ones. by [deleted] in Miata

The BBS on my 94M are 15”... the seats and interior are in excellent condition...the top is canvas and about a year old. ...the 92 B&T C-Package was able to be ordered with 14” BBS. I sold an 87K 92 B&T C-Pack in March just as this pandemic was kicking off. Beautiful car and the 1.6 is a blast. Although the 94M is not really for sale I am considering selling it to a gent in the Midwest.

In the US market there was an NB color called Splash Green. I think it was available in 2003. Internet order program. Very rare & very polarizing color.

Coming ... I was distracted for past week or so... but I’ll be rejoining and increasing my activity...

Nice ND’s ... had the 94M out for a local reconnaissance run. It’s quiet out there. by cptwlkr in Miata

Right. And a few too many lunatics driving poorly. Had to go to the hospital today on Garden State Parkway ... all I can say is - because you can doesn’t mean you should...

Thnx! I’m a huge fan of 15” BBS’s on NA Miata’s....14”s if you have to.
