First off, April's Rainbow Striped Monster Longies:
To continue with business stuff before I lose you all, I have kind of a big change to the Crankypants system. Starting now, I am going to keep a master wait list for people who are interested in purchasing the 3 classic Crankypants designs: Monster Booty, Sock Monkey and Jolly Roger in their classic colors and standard sizes.
This means:
3-6 months, 15-17" waist, 15-16" rise, 6.5" inseam
6-12 months, 16-18" waist, 16-17" rise, 8" inseam
12-18 months, 17-19" waist, 17-18" rise, 9" inseam
18-24 months, 18-20" waist, 18-19" rise, 10" inseam
I had no idea there was such demand for those until I saw the recent auction that went for more than 3 times the original sale price. I do occasionally have extras of these standard sizes (right now I have 3-4) and I think we'll all be happier if I can have a wait list for them as opposed to just randomly putting them up at Etsy or Hyena Cart. Soooo...email me at info@crankypantshome.com or comment here if you'd like to be on the wait list. Include the design and size you would like to wait for. I'll just go right down the list as the become available. This will also serve as a wait list I can use once this fair trade deal gets worked out. Those on the list will get first crack at the first shipment. THIS IS NOT A LIST FOR CUSTOM ORDERS! I know that Mahar has a similar list, so hopefully between the two of us you will all be swimming in Crankypants soon. I will be making this list public (first name, last initial) so you can see where you are. If you do not want your name to appear on the public list, please let me know when you sign up.
This is one of a few changes I anticipate at Crankypants World HQ. A few things have happened this month that have made me sit down and really evaluate what I want from this business. From now on I'll only be using Hyena Cart for auctions. People have obviously responded to the auction method of buying, so I am going to increase the number to 4 in September. I am hoping that with 4 auctions they will give those who like the auctions a chance to bid and not get priced out in the first 5 minutes. There will be 2 auctions before the first and 2 after. All other custom orders will be taken through the midnight crazy email thing. Since I have to also prepare for the FEAST stocking on Sept. 3 and my guest spot at the Venus Vanguard stocking on Sept. 11, I'll only be taking 5 slots via email in September.
If you have any questions about any of this stuff, please feel free to send me an email. I am taking a break from all of the posting boards, so if you see anyone asking questions, I'd appreciate it if you Crankypants experts help them out or send them my way.

sorry about the anonymous thing . . . I'm an idiot!
Hi Amy,
I think I might be going overboard covering my bases between signing up on Mahar's list and emailing you during the midnight madness - hope you don't mind if I'm being redundant. Just wanted to make sure I was on the waiting list for a pair of 12-18 mo monster booty crankypants.
Thanks so much,
Maren
