Does anyone have a way to get in touch with Ed to see if he is still fullfilling orders?

It's been several weeks....I don't think he is taking orders anymore.

I PM'd him just now over on Maxima.org. But really, guys, it's out of my hands.

If it were me, after years of fulfilling little $5 orders every now and then, I'd personally get pretty sick of cutting vinyl decals. However, I'm not Ed, and he's a lot more easy going and patient than I am, so maybe he's just on vacation, or his computer is on the fritz, or his vinyl-cut printer is down, or he's out of materials at the moment and waiting on a shipment of vinyl, or his wife left him, or he's in prison... or any of dozens of entirely reasonable explanations.

OK? OK.

Well, probably not prison. But you get my point.

Maybe Nissan took him to court for the 4DSC trademark infringement and is now sitting in a cell block

FWIW I've got a rare collectors edition 4DSC sticker available, price negotiable but reserve starts at $50 (since you can't get them anymore)

I also have a few extras, but they're backups should the ones on the windows ever get nicked or come off for whatever reason... which is something I advise anyone who's spending $2 on decals. Just spend 2x or 3x more for redundancy, because it still costs practically nothing.

Besides, if Ed ever stops, then with a little bit of research and networking, I'm sure I could find another source. Probably no one as straight-up honest and reasonably priced as him, but something can always be figured out. Seriously, it's just a single-color, vinyl cut decal... it's not rocket science.

I already have an account with the guy who did the MyG37.com decals, if Ed has officially retired, I would be happy to get more decals made and offer them for the same price he was.

And I'd be happy to help out with the image stock and specs, should that be necessary. But I doubt it will.

Patience, Grasshopper.

Cool, would be nice to have another source for these, although the value of my remaining sticker just plummeted

No, it's fine. It's a vintage decal. Ed Hard-to-find edition.

This just now from Ed:

Tell them to email me directly with the paypal transition ID# so I can look into it further. I am not on MyG37, nor do I intend to but I definitely don't mind supplying these. They just need to hit me up on email. You have me really concerned now as you refer to them as a "small group of guys". Since 2006 I have never shorted an order. To hear a group is saying I'm not filling their orders is unbelievable. Thanks John!
So there you have it. He's still around, and still fulfilling orders. Track down what you asked for and email him. And if you can't do that, then do it all over again, and shrug it off. It's only a few bucks, after all.

Thanks for following up with him. I sent him an email, I'm not terribly worried about it. Like you said, 5 bucks is NBD in the grand scheme.

Nice to know he got out of that possible prison sentence, must've had Jacki Childs as his lawyer

Stickers just came in the mail today!! He's still fullfilling orders.

Funny thing is, the return address on the envelope they came in is like 15 miles away from my house.. He's a a local.

This Just In

FYI

Ed just wrote me to let me know he's no longer cutting vinyl in that "frost" material anymore. He'll still fill 4DSC orders, just no longer in that material.
