Yes, I am getting a daily message about new emails in my spam folder. This evening I will send him another email. Maybe he did not notice my first message.

I should say that when I communicated with Charlie, it turned out that emails from my Hotmail account went somewhere into the void of WWW - probably has something to do with how his email account is set up for junk and stuff. Then I switched to GMail and everything was fine.

So my advice is to use GMail or at least try to use your other email provider (hope you have more than one).

Just send Charlie a text message if you're able to as he's usually quicker about responding to text messages.

I expect you'll get a response soon. He's very timely with communication. Must have been some gliche before.

We came up with a slightly larger blade head (~ 1/16th longer/wider), which adds a little more flex, or resonance as Charlie likes to call it. The slightly larger head we decided to call a "P" head for the Plastic ball.

Thanks Jim. It seems so, but in an other way that you think, because Charlie answered to my first email (gmx). Nevertheless your advice (to use an other email-account) helped, because I "spammed" him with 3 additional emails. Maybe as result of these additional emails he gave up (to ignore my email) because he feared to get 10 more emails next week.

I'm interested in trying out the Quad-Trip if you still have it. Its the typical weight range I like my blades to be. Please message me on how to get it from you. Thank you.

It was JimT who posted for testers and the current person holding onto that blade should be jt99sf (if no change).

Just to sidetrack.

My advice to Charlie is to stay away from using USPS as their customer service is very bad.

Another blade coming soon: LoopMaster 3.0. I think I already posted this earlier. 7-ply blade with 2 carbon layers, soft Obeche, and Avi core. This blade is really good, especially for looping. You would like this blade Jim. [URL= ][/URL]

Updated the list.

Quad-Trip
Type: ALL+ / OFF- / OFF
Composition: 7 plys (4 cypress layers + 3 nano-carbon layers)

FlashDrive 3.0
Type: OFF-
Composition: 7 plys (5 koto layers + 2 nano-carbon layers)

Excalibur
Type: ALL+ / OFF-
Composition: 11 plys (4 koto layers + 2 blasa layers + 1 carbon + 4 nano-carbon layers)

LoopMaster 3.0
Type: ALL+ / OFF-
Composition: 7 plys (4 Obeche layers + 2 nano-carbon layers + Avi core)

I removed the thickness and weight since they can be customized according to individuals' requirement.

Just a advice for those who want to purchase a blade from BBC but stay outside of US. Request to Charlie not to use USPS.

According to Charlie, my blade was shipped on 25 Jan 2016, Monday morning. The item tracking is still in transit since its departure from USPS Facility on 28 Jan 2016 morning till date. I have checked with USPS - their reply is unable to check once the item is out of their facility and told me to check with my local postal service which I did and the item has not arrived at my local postal service. It has been 10 business days and totally no news on the whereabouts of my item.
