Michele Fiori, designer of producer of the Vectrex Wraps, just has sent out the mail below. I think this is great news! :-) I'm not 100% sure, but I guess Michele will accept orders of additional people, not just the people who had preordered.. _____ Michele Fiori wrote: Hi to everyone!
You are getting this email because time ago by the end of 2012 after i proposed to design new wraps and restart their printing work you sent me a pre-order…
.. now is arrived finally the time i can work over and do the stamps to ship it to you... what do you want to do ?
I’m printing Scramble, YASI and Protector; together with the wraps i’ll include also some papers to apply and store the pieces of wraps you download form the console; you can be helped by these papers to save the wraps for another time and reuse it again and again...
In attachment to this email there is a first picture of the Scramble design sample, in it are not visible jet the little overlay parts i do for these new release.
I prepare the table below to give you the shipment cost needed; the easy and cheapest way to ship the wraps is by the mail service; i define the shipment by registered mail or priority/standard Mail, please let me know your choose; about the number of wraps i’ve your past per-order that can be confirmed or changed as you want.
The vectrexwraps unit price is fixed at 28 USD / 20 euro
Paypal account is : vectrexwraps@gmail.com
Please send me your email feedback asap and if possible the payments not later then 28 of february, the shipment will start by 10 of march.
Thank you very much and hear from you soon!
Michele

For those of you who have not seen Michele's wraps in person yet I can vouch for their complete and utter quality. If you are concerned about their reuse and/or repositioning after the first application, I'll tell you they can be removed and reapplied more than ten times. Just keep your fingers and the surface clean. The wraps do not stretch much either. This property contributes to their reuse and longevity. When you order the wraps please indicate how you want them shipped. The last time Michele shipped the easiest way to ship was cut up and ship flat. However, if you want the sheet whole then write him ahead of time and indicate this. The shipment of a whole, rolled up sheet may cost a bit more but I personally like the whole sheet. So did others who purchased the second run of the first edition wraps that I made working with Michele. Example of the uncut whole sheets Tue Second Edition:  The first edition, second run:  |

vectrexer, so you can just peel off the wraps from the sheets without problems when you get them as entire sheets?

So is the Paypal email the same as contacting Michele if you're interested in ordering? (seeing as I didn't get an email from him)

I assume the uncut sheet will look better, but the cut sheet is easier to post and handier to put into a shelf. It would be cool to have a picture of the cut sticker sheet to decide. |

Hi there! My first post here.. so thank you first of all to open this discussion and to support this new wrap... by the way some days ago i publish a video about the use of the first stamp i prepare for Scramble; if not jet seen here it is the link : About the not cut up complete sheet or the cut sheet version I'll be happy to post some pictures but this will happen only by the first week of march when i'll move to finalize the stamps for all the 3 wraps. In the Shipping cost table there is an upgrade that sent by email and i think is good to publish also here. I added a little correction and i deleted the standard mail method that i undervalued and that was no more interesting in comparison to the registered mail. ( for who payed already is fine and will be anyway a registered mail)  In this table there is also the TUBE shipment costs; like you say here the cut sheet is simply easier to post and handler to put in a shelf with a lesser cost too; the wrap is safe as in a tube ^_^ |

Welcome to the the Vectorgaming forum and thank you for your info on the wraps, Michele! It's really great that you've restarted your Vectrex Wrap project, again. :-)
ATM, I'm undecided regarding the shipping (cut or uncut). I tend to the cut wraps because of much easier handling on your and my side; but it very much depends on the look of the cut wraps. The pictures that you intend to post in March will help to decide.
Again, thank you for your excellent effort and best regards!
Helmut

I'm going to need a third... and perhaps even 4th Vectrex to have all 4 designs displayed at once!
