It's always nice to see the faces behind the scenes. Which of you did the awesome box art on my delivery? I love it! My neighbor stopped by while I was unboxing and commented on the art work too.

It was Matt. Section from the left.

We are still waiting on SK to ship us the metal box socket sets and the hats, so if you haven't got a notification from us, that's what the hold up is. I would expect we should get them any day now.

Free stuff is not the reason I ordered, but appear to be missing the tape measure. Othewise great as usual. Requested weasels doing weaselly things.

So has the dust settled enough to post a 2016 Epstein's day summary?

Like *** orders placed? Average order $ amount, top three most ordered
items, and anything else you would like to share....

Dust hasn't settled, but I can say that the early estimates were very accurate. 241 orders. Average order value was $200.00

Top five order totals

$937.49
$864.04
$833.03
$739.05
$659.54

Not sure about the most popular item, but I know we sold around 33 of the SK metal tool boxes.

95% of what I bought I already have an equivalent of and didn't need, but thought the cause was good and I have a tool addiction problem.

Made the top 3... that is what having a few too many fermented beverages during the holiday festivities will do to influencing ones thought process :D

Dorset, England..... isn't that where Top Gear went camping a few years ago?

Indeed, although they have filmed in the county several times and James May has a house just over the border in Wiltshire. He switched the Christmas lights on in the town I'm from last year.

I'm below average as always. I would have made the top 3 if I bought that SK box but would have been closer to God if I did after my wife killed me. :D

Well, my box came in today. Everything looks great. My box art was a dragon coming out of the water, scaring some poor guy in a rowboat. My kids love How To Train Your Dragon right now, so it was a great painting for them.

I can't figure out how to add a picture though.....

My theme this year (my first time participating) was buying all the little things that I have wanted all along. Grabbed a magnolia bench brush, some $5 slip joint pliers, the $10 Wilde groove joints with the knurled handles that were a giveaway a few years back, feeler gauges and a few other items.

The highlights are definitely the Estwing Hammer with the leather grip and the Rabone-Chesterman ruler. They don't make 'em like they used to!

Sounds pretty good for a day's work :lol:

I think you guys did pretty good especially considering all the other sales events that were going on that weekend. :dunno:

Any updates from SK Land as to when they might start shipping you our stuff?

The hats and a bunch of other stuff from SK arrived yesterday, so we were able to start shipping a lot more out. Still waiting on the boxes though.

Just got my shipping notification. Pretty good since I added a non-stock item to my order almost a week after the 4th.

Very impressed.

No shipping notification here but it sounds like the SK metal boxes aren't in yet still. Can't wait but have to!

Got my shipping notice, it will take a while to get to me but not ordering any special order items or out of stock items has really sped up shipping from previous orders.
