    10th of July has come and gone. How is the production going? I can't wait to have this great device in my hands/pocket!

      Hi Guys, I agree with David, It would be nice to have at least a version that handles ethernet cables. CAT6 cables are about 1/4" in diameter.

        Hi Guys, You should seriously consider creating a bigger and rugged version of the SlingBack to use with extension cords around the house or construction field. I am certain construction workers would like to have this type of product to manage their extension cords.

              Won't work with the many headphones that now include in-line microphones, only works with smooth cords?

                  It's been a while since this one was introduced. Is it possible to include other colors now along with the orange/white???

                    Threshold raised temporarily due to inconsistent/worrisome ratio between paid commitments and recently joined members who are signing up with multiple accounts and using their 20 dollar coupon. We will investigate this over the weekend and report back monday.

                      OMG, I just put this idea on the site, before I saw it was already invented. Shoot me now...I just pissed away $99 bucks

                        The logo looks alot like the Mont Blanc logo. You think they are going to have a problem with that?

                                Nice to see this thing slowly climbing up the charts. Wouldn't mind seeing a wholesale order come in...heh. Come on threshold!

                                  i think it is a great idea, and - i LOVE the name - yes - slingbacks are historically womens shoes (and i have a large collection) - but the name fits - would you consider making a round one thats big enough to hold a standard electric cord? i hate having cords laying around - anywhere, lamps, kitchen equipment, curling irons, fans, whatever - and i was suprised to find out my hate of cords is not unusual - the colours you have are cool - and a colorful circle laid out on the floor or counter (or hanging light, how cool would that be??)would be a great idea - i'd go for 10 right off the bat - cali

                                    WHy not make a larger pone of these that can hold four different cords? Perfect for under office desks...

                                      Why not make one that works with fatter cords? Many of the wires under my computer desk are fatter and would benefit by being hidden in this device.

                                        When this product surpasses the pre-sale threshold, won't it just murder product 0011? Personally, I'd like to have a stack of these instead of cord weights in my laptop case.

                                          Over three months and just over 1/4 of the way towards the pre-sale magic number. So what happens if you never hit 500? The longer it's up there, the less successful Quirky looks.
