Also looks too loose for me. Suggest the same as above with also providing your actual wrist measurement on the repair form to them for resizing advice.

[popvulture]

I’d agree. Looks too big, and GA would know exactly how to help. I’ve sent stuff back to them for repair and it was easy peasy.

[Jett129]

I would think that GA would do this automatically,but just in case,have them send the links they remove back to you. Just on the off chance that someday you want to sell it and the buyer has a bigger wrist than you. Recently sold an old watch and having the links that were,previously,taken off sealed the deal.

Man. Just got a text because I signed up for restock notifications for a brass BLB.

$185 now.

[Kasi]

No thanks rather pass back in the days it was $85

And the silver one is up to $465! Wow. The Clip 8 is only $60 more and is a much more complicated piece.

[Kasi]

So glad I got most of the items at a lot lower prices.

I would be dam piss buying them now

[Danimal506]

@Kasi Yea me too! Glad my wife got me my BLB in 2018 when they were only $89.

Good Art has theirs listed for $185, Ship John and Iron Heart America has them listed at $99 and Self Edge has them for listed $125. Kinda wacky seeing various pricing for one product. But I imagine the retailers will all be updated to $185 when they go back into production.

[Kasi]

@Danimal506

They will be out of stock. When they restock price will all be the same.

[Danimal506]

As much as I love my BLB. If didn’t have one, it would be tough to spend $185 on one. I think I would keep saving towards something more intricate by GA.

I imagine they won’t have a difficult time selling them though.

[Kasi]

If you gonna look at it like overall.

Every thing I have cost ten times more.

Plus’s some of the items I have rare to get hold off. If Josh brings them out again, only imagine prices will be hike up more

[Brian]

Everything seems to go up in price and gets more expensive with popularity the only thing that doesn’t are wages it seems

[Danimal506]

Haha yea once the celebrities find out about something cool, the cats outta the bag.

I’ll keep collecting though. GA makes the coolest silver jewelry and Knick knacks around

[popvulture]

Yeah, I mean — I thought $100 for a brass keychain was a bit ridiculous, but it was such a cool little thing that it definitely seemed worth the splurge. Nearly twice the price? No.

I’ve got a Corter Leather bottle hook that I’ve been using as my keychain for years, which I’ll just stick with. Not as glitzy, but more functional ‍️

[Danimal506]

Since we’re talking BLB, I may as well share a pic

[stitchdown.shell]

@popvulture Yeah, I signed up for for the restock email. But saw it is now $185US plus $30 shipping. It's a pass for me sadly because I wanted one.

[popvulture]

@Danimal506 yeah man! I mentioned a while back that the new ones don’t even have “shit hot quality” anymore, one of my favorite features. I have an EZ Slider from a few years back that had one of those rings, thankfully.

@stitchdown-shell oof they should include free shipping, man. It’s not like they use anything fancy, even — they’ve shipped USPS every time I’ve gotten something from them.

[Kasi]

I have a handful of those split ring shit hot quality.

New one are horrible to thin

[Danimal506]

@popvulture I purposefully included it in the pic

@Kasi Do you have 3 BLBs? Seeing the “Everybody Needs a Buddy” on there. Did they include that split ring with the EZ slider?

[Kasi]

@Danimal506

I have 2 BLB one sliver the brass
The reason I have so many split rings
Have the following.

Comb
4 x clip 8. All sizes
Silver and Brass Covid grabber

As for EZ slider I have the silver one didn’t get no split ring.

Am not big a fan of the buddy loop.

Like this one better
