Love the concept. Discreet, solid material and def easy to handle.
Couple things I noticed right away and could possibly be design improvements.
- flat design causes any fine powder contained to re-pack. This results in needing to stir it up and prevents the wildcard from being as discrete as it could be... Suggestion. Since it already balloons at the bottom when filled and never is really flat. Add a bit of material between the front and back at the bottom to create more room at the bottom and possibly prevent re-pack to occur. Similar to a "gift bag", how it still tapers to meet at the top but at the bottom doesn't squish contents. When empty or minimally filled it would still appear flat but when taking advantage of it's capacity allow for minimal re-pack to occur. Definitely still in the break in period and noticing it's becoming less rigid but I don't anticipate the re-pack issue to go away based on the current design and strong magnets flattening the wildcard.
- The stitching at the opening on either side exposed and I am already noticing fraying of the stitching, I anticipate stitching to eventually break from accessing the wildcard contents as I use various tools, insert and spin to open the wildcard. This is the easiest way to access it's contents and I'm wondering if a thin leather cord, thin paracord or even "fishing line" like material would be better suited for the stitching up top.
- The inside of the wildcard is a reflective material, for an item that is for discrete storage of whatever a buyer wants to store inside. Having something in their hands that when opened will reflect light is less than ideal.
- Price point cause hesitation when looking at the wildcard, I would of definitely bought one for my partner without testing had It been even $20 cheaper.... on the cactus leather options.
- I noticed the capacity is technically accurate however when approaching max capacity there is a bit of a 'poofing' effect when closing the wildcard. The quick grab of the magnets pushes out any fine powder contained within, wasting it and also detracting from discreteness of use.
Overall, wonderful product and the above definitely doesn't prevent me from using it as my primary container, perfect solution to move away from the waterproof, screw lid pill containers I still often use. You're on the right track and look forward to future versions as you iterate and develop the product.
If you want to activate me within Seattle as a vendor of sorts, send a promo code for purchases by people in my circles out here who see the wildcard I'm sure I can increase west coast sales no doubt. I don't think I'd be interested in promoting the product as it's most obvious use case is in a grey area I like to avoid. I am in nightlife and a talent buyer for various venues as well as hosting my own private, invite only events.
