On Friday, myself and AltimatSe-r visited Josh at work and got a tour of the place. Yes they are being made. Very cool, high-tech place. I actually saw the end pieces being made.

Looking good Josh. You da man!

If you no longer need it, I'm sure you can easily sell it for more than what you have already paid for.

We plan to keep a limited supply in stock.
If demand is zero for a long time, then they probably won't be available after they run out, at least at the normal price.

Hmmmm......shipping next week maybe.

I'm waiting patiently and happily for mine to appear
