Those designs are older than I am/ why not something new?
So are these the only days?
Confused by this note from Blenko?
Is the sale 2 weeks or 2 weekends?
Hilary help.

to send this info 2 days prior to the sale is kinda crazy don't you think?
Communications is lacking and inferior.
Why not start talking about this in Jan?
I don't understand this
anyone else find it strange?

CHECK OUT EBAY
A 2011 WV BIRTHDAY OVER RUN not YET SIGNED
IS AVAILABLE FOR $279
THE PERSON SAYS THEY MADE 10 EXTRA
OMG IS THERE NO REAL LIMITED EDITIONS FOR BLENKO?
SAD SAD I DONT GO TO STAND IN LINE BUT PURCHASE AFTER THE FACT AND NOW HAVE 20 OF THESE BUT TODAY IM OFFERING THEM FOR SALE.
WHO KNOWS ABOUT THESE COLLECTIONS? HOW MANY ARE SOLD.
I"LL RETURN TO OTHER COLLECTIONS.
BLENKO IS UNRELIABLE, AND NOW WITH THIS OBVIOUSLY ALSO NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR A LIMITED EDTION ITEM.
ALL THE FOOLS WHO STAND IN LINE WHEN MORE GOES OUT THE BACK DOOR THAN TO THE CASH REGISTER? STRANGE STUFF
I WAS SO DISAPPOINTED WITH SEEING THE GUITAR / I LIKE YOU ALL HEARD ABOUT OTHER VINTAGE WV BIRTHDAY PIECES UN SIGNED BEING SOLD FOR $50 TO FRIENDS OF BLENKO DURING THE CRISIS BUT I REFUSED TO BELIEVE THE STORY NOW I DO.
OTHER THAN OFFERING GLASS FOR SALE, CRAIGS LIST AND I"LL DROP A NOTE HERE AS I LIST
I AM GIVING UP ON BLENKO.
SAD SAD SAD AND IF THE BARBOURSVILLE SELLER IS AN EMPLOYEE EVEN SADDER.

EBAY OFFERING OF 2011 BIRTHDAY GUITAR VASE FOR $279.
I own both these designs in many colors purchased years ago.
New?
Is the color new? Perhaps
Designs are not new.
Explanation Glassdoc.
This is what they are talkin about when they say ' your info is incorrect'
If you have the first five
I want to purchase these.

The "extra" 2011 WV Birthday pieces are yet another reason why many of us purchase only vintage Blenko, and don't really have any desire to purchase new Blenko, especially "limited editions".

New to Blenko. Currently reading everything I can find.
My question is if Manchin and crew came to Blenko at the request of Blenko Project - this info from Blenko Collectors Four.
Why are there no photos of you in the newspaper or on line for August 25th?

Response to comments:
RE: Blenko warehouse sale hours - phone Blenko 304 743 9081.
2) Ebay - purchase with caution on ebay - know your seller if possible.
3) We published the sale event when we received the notice.
4) When Gov Manchin came to Blenko I was a first year DDS student and couldn't leave clinic, I don't think Katie was a Blenko employee at this time - thus neither of us are in the photo with Manchin.
5) The 'color' is new. An awesome color - I suggest you phone to purchase these.

If this is an example of Bayliss design, you glass princess should reconsider each and every statement you've made about this fellow.

If I were Baylis and I'm not
I would be ashamed to have my name of copied designs.
Did this sell out?
Will you do more of the ornaments that are painted?
I keep looking for these?
If not can you put me in touch with the person who made them?
??? So does this mean Katie GT
was not at Blenko when the blog began?
I am very impressed that she became an expert and VP in such a short time.
Blenko does indeed owe her a lot, I bet the entire factory is in awe of her ability to grasp the history and process so quickly.

We gave up on the Birthday Collection when we read about the North or South Carolina couple who bought the unsigned vintage birthday pieces.
Diluted the resell value.
Now the guitars unsigned are floating on the market. Wisdom would indicate selling 150+ vases at $125-$155 would allow for a broken mold.
Carolee and Dr Bob both collect this series.
As do many others, if this becomes common knowledge the edition is not so limited.
