Bump.

Prefer this to the original. Hope they fixed the issues too

Looks nice, but they seem pretty tiny at 9 inches.

The average depth is 3.77 inches. 9 inches is not tiny.

In my mind i was expecting a lifesize camera in there. Instead it looks like a partyfavor viewmaster.

Yeah it’s pretty garbage; an absolute masterpiece though.

Just a quick update. I found a telephone number for Arsham Studios on the Fed Ex Import Tax document which arrived a week later and gave them a call. Turns out there were quite a few claims for them to process due to damaged shipments overseas and were struggling to get around to everyone!
The end result is they are on the case and were really cool. Fedex will be picking up the damaged piece - which is a shame because I was going to find a way to display the relic camera within
Fed Ex have waived the import tax so hope to get a refund or they did say they would try and ship me another if there were spares, failing that they'll let me jump the queue for the next release scheduled for the Autumn.

Final note, thanks to Bren and Expresspost who responded. It's nice to see amidst some of the garbage that gets written on here that members still help each other out...one of the reasons I joined this forum 12 years ago

Hi, I was wondering if you or others who received shattered hourglasses ended up receiving a refund or replacement from arsham? Thanks

Had the old one... piece of garbage. Wouldn’t advise buying any of his work...quality has gone down significantly.

Exactly why I sold the last hollow figure. I was actually pretty excited about that piece. It felt so cheaply made in hand and really only looked good from certain angles.

Hi

Yep received the replacement. Took long enough and whilst I was waiting I asked, assuming they had to make these again from scratch if I could have mine made with Blue Sand...6 months since asking and it been released! 

[gmidd]

The new one is up early if anyone is interested: www.danielarsham.com/shop/hourglass-blue

Was thinking about it, but for $650+shipping, I'm going to pass.

EDIT: Looks to be sold out now. Unless they pulled it until the actual drop time.

Thanks, that's good to hear, congrats. Just saw that the new one is $650, so I'll be passing.

Let's have fun watching all the ebay listings pop up for 1000+ and then drop down to retail.

[raphyki55]

How can he justify the 150$ addition honestly I don’t understand
Producing blue sand?
Or making one that won’t break when shipped

[nobokov]

If anyone is gutted to have missed out here's one you can get for $28 with free shipping.

Because they re resold for 2-3x the release price already

Prerelease Presellers are shooting themselves in the foot giving Arsham the idea to cut out their profits.

[clueless]

Anyone who thought this one would do as well as the white sand hourglass is about to have a bad time.

Daniel only cares about money at this point. His whole image is a gimmick (pretending to be colorblind) etc. not to mention he’s a huge jackass to deal with. Can easily see people getting tired of his nonsense and him fizzling out

[88rayse88]

Was already sold out before release time...incredible...

[Express Post]

Lol. The price of blue sand costs $200 more than white sand.

It's that "hard to find" blue sand. Exotic. Probably coastal, somewhere near the equator. 

[88rayse88]

Reading the comments here...perhaps should be glad it was already sold out pre release.

Don't be silly, it wasn't blue to start with, he had to hand paint each grain, hence the extra $200...

*Hand embellished* *Each hourglass is unique* 

[Express Post]

If they arrive cracked then they will definitely be unique.

I saw a guy by the name of todd unhoarding his arshams here a few days ago, with no success.

[sfnyc]

Already a few flipped on ebay at $1000


Just counted 68 already listed there

[Deleted]

[The Italian One]
