Hey Rou,
Did you get my email about one of my boxes having a broken clip?
How much for a couple extra too?
Any word on a metal replacement clip yet?

Rou,

Love the boxes. They have become our permanent camp boxes. We had them in rain, dust, snow, mud and everything else that Moab could throw at us. Very happy.

A few of my clips easily fall out. Looks like there is not much you can do about it though due to the variance in the clip holes.

Welcome to my world Mark!
Should have them by beginning next week.

Awesome! I was thinking another slow boat that was running the long way around the horn from pirates!

what's the pricing? Do you know yet? Put me down for 6 mugs. Bowls if you have them.

I had the same issue and exchanged emails with Rou a week or two ago. He said they were expecting a shipment of extra clips and that they were still working on a metal replacement.
I think the extra original clips should be in any day now.

I make Ziploc bags for a living and have a little knowledge of plastics. After studying the box clips (and breaking another due to it being cold), they could easily still be made of plastic. It would just have to be a different blend. A different plastic would work fine for the clips. A polypropylene as opposed to the polythylene like the boxes are made out of would ealiy take the bending. It would just be a matter of finding a place to cast them. We have a few local shops that do smaller cast allotments but I don't know how many you would need to order.

Hello guys,
Sorry about the the lack of contact. Please do email us for replacement clips. Not only did we lose our Cruiser this week, but we had a major email crash a couple weeks ago. So please do check in again and we'll get some clips off to you in the early new year.
Sorry again if you had not had a reply from me. We'd love to get some clips off to you as replacements if you need them.
We are making progress on the clips, both plastic and metal, and we hope to have some other good news for you all in early next year. Stay tuned and let us know how I can help.

Saw that on fb about the TLC. Sorry for your loss but glad you are OK!

Hi all,
I just wanted to let you all know the status of the Bundu Boxes, for those of you who are interested and following.

The good news is, we have a very secure and reliable source for the boxes, and will also be looking at bringing in some different colors.
Bad news is we have had to delay our planned container shipment until the summer. We initially wanted to bring in a significant number by airfreight, but gas prices and freight costs changed that plan in a hurry. I'm sure you are aware that one is shipping air, so it gets expensive.

Thanks to those of you who have been patient, but hopefully you understand the circumstances. We still have a list going, and are happy to add more names and orders. As soon as we have a better ETA we will let you all know.

And just as a matter of fact; we have taken absolutely no deposits, nor made any promises to anyone on delivery dates. Just so we're all clear.
The plan is to have them in in a couple of months in some large quantities. And stay tuned, because we may have some smart surprises for you. And also, I'm working on the metal clips!

Put me on the list for two boxes - a friend of mine has some of these and they are just the right size for what I want. - JackW
