I just finished up a group buy on these, and I've had requests for more, so here goes. They're OFFICIAL LOTUS OF JAPAN phone straps -- NOT knockoffs! They're really cute. The Lotus on the strap is SMALL, but it's metal (I think), and nicely made.
In Japan, phone straps with little baubles like this are really popular. I doubt these are sold anywhere else but Japan. Of course, they can be used for all kinds of other things, like cameras, pagers, etc.
My friend in Japan has been kind enough to offer to get these from the seller (as he did with the first batch), and forward them to me. I'll then mail them to the individual buyers (you!).
My friend has already contacted the seller, who said he can supply as many as I need.
As with the first batch, I'm selling them at my cost -- no profit. Just my way of giving back a little, since I get so much valuable info from this group. They'll be about $15 each, plus shipping to you from my home in Virginia (less than $2 in the US, including the padded envelope).
People who've received the ones in the first batch have been happy with them.
I won't be asking for payment until I have them, but PLEASE don't say you want one unless you're sure. I don't want to be stuck with a bunch of these! Could take 4-6 weeks to get them. To order, just POST HERE, stating what color and how many you want. NOTE: ONLY RED, YELLOW AND BLUE ARE AVAILABLE!
I'll be closing the offer probably on Tuesday (after the holiday weekend).
I doubt I'll be doing this again, so if you want one, please don't miss this opportunity!
One yellow, one blue. The spousal unit does not see the Elise's appeal yet. If she doesn't come around by ordering time, these will be the only Official Lotus Products I'll ever own. That would be unfortunate.

Just an update: I just heard from my friend in Japan that he's ordered the straps from the seller, and expects to get them next week. He'll then ship them to me by Express Mail, so I should have them in-hand in about 2 weeks (fingers crossed!).
Unfortunately, this whole thing was delayed 10 days cause I sent the order to my friend, then, 10 days later, discovered he never got my email. But all seems to be on-track now.
Well, after WEEKS of hounding, my friend in Japan says he sent the phone straps today, by Express Mail, so I should have them in a few days. Sorry for the delay. I'll start contacting people when they arrive.

I am doing a new run of shirts. The shirts will be made with the same tri-blend shirts I did last design. If you would rather have a gildan heavy cotton shirt, I can arrange that as well. The shirt comes in 4 designs, the Elise, Evora and Exige and Esprit.
The shirt colors can be found in the...
Bilstein shocks/springs from an 2006 Exige. These came with the car in a box when I bought it as it currently has SA Nitrons. Previous owner said they work fine, no idea how many miles are on them.
The black stuff is just dirt, lots of it.
$100 + S&H or OBO.
Ship or pickup from Morton, IL.
I bought this and never installed it on my Elise.
If I recall I paid about $150 for it. Selling it for $130 shipped.
I prefer Venmo or zelle. If you need reference of recent sales of parts I can give you usernames of happy buyers.
