well, would have loved to buy, but checkout is broken. doesn’t work on mobile (safari or chrome) nor on Mac desktop (chrome, safari, and firefox) – always says it can’t figure out what I want to buy…
I have one (not eight) of these and they’re not good with bigass phones like the Note8 or my previous S7. They fall over from the weight. And it’s not good if you use wireless charging. At least that’s my experience with this thingy. Just sayin’

See, it’s an eight-pack. Count ‘em, EIGHT. That’s enough to load all your grandkids’ Christmas stockings (assuming an average American family’s reproductive prolificness)<snip>
Um, looking at the internet, the average number of children in the United States (meh’s primary market) born to a woman who does have children is right around two.
If the hypothetical average-American meh customer has two children, and then their two kids each has two children, that makes four grandkids, not eight.
And where are the Bluetooth speakers and all the other COOL crap that was on here when i joined MEH 160 days ago…(btw, that Santana tour bag is still rockin’ it)
I think you missed the obvious writeup, Meh - 8 of them, one for each night of Hanukkah. Traditionally, you get some small gift every night - and could disappoint your child IMMENSELY as they opened the same thing night after night. I can just picture it now. By night three, they might not even open the gift. Night four, you put it in a bigger box so they thing it’s something else. But NOPE! It’s still an iPhone ring. Hahahah! Ah, Hanukkah fun.
@acovington It’s the weekend so I wouldn’t expect a fast answer, but if it were me, I would write into customer support. Mehbe @tHumperchick could look into it as well?

I almost bought this immediately, but am holding off until the morning. I have something similar and it really comes in handy.

Fantastic. This is exactly the kind of thing I would never put on my phone.
@RogerWilco They are pretty nice on a plain tpu case!
If it could pull double duty as a bottle opener you’d have a sale
Target audience
16 for $8 what a great deal
Don’t want it on my phone, but might be useful as a light-duty drawer pull.
even 16 for $8 shipped would be an insult

Funny. I always thought it was ZERO.
Back to skool for me…
@bdb but your average LDS typical family has about 8 kids so sales in Utah and Idaho ought to go through the roof.

Ring holder? I think you meant to write finger decapitator once your phone eventually gets aught on something.
Holiday shopping for the vet’s office is DONE!!!
Dear Meh…please to sell massive quantities of christmas wrapping paper.
Thank you.
Oh! Now I get it! I kept repeating the header using Gollum’s voice and it just did not fit… silly me tying everything to LOTR…
You know i love cell phone rings but they are only $2.48 each at walmart and include the little hanger hooks
These are cheaper everywhere you look. Wtf meh?
Really don’t want these, but I do love the idea of stocking stuffers. Don’t give up on the idea meh!
OHHHHHHH Thank GOD. Why did I not search Rutledge’s name sooner?
Amazon screwed up the other site and it took me far too long to find this one! AHHHH the good ole days!!!
WOOO HOOO since I cannot way the other word.

@Tygress you are evil… we will have to tell dhs LOL
@Kidsandliz Luckily I only have nieces, and no children of my own.
@Tygress they actually mentioned it:
No idea why you would want to but you could get 4 for $5 shipped (Smaller family you want to disappoint?)

@acovington Processing is the status your order will stay in until it changes to shipped.
