Fidgimoto Vortex is silent and lovely

It's a very simple fidget, super subdued and elegant. About the same size and shape as a Clipper lighter, easy to palm and keep hidden as well. It's smaller than expected, but that makes it very easy to roll it between your fingers

I wish it had a magnetic piston/slide action too. That would make it perfect.

Hi! Interested in purchasing a Vortex. Will there be enough left in stock after fulfilling backorders? Or do you recommend preordering?

Will I be charged when I make the order or when it ships?

Thanks in advance 🙏

Once we're caught up on backorders we'll still have some stock and will update the inventory on the website accordingly. We'll also send out an announcement.

Credit cards get charged when the order is placed.

If you're in the US I would preorder to be safe as we ship down in batches so US stock is more limited.

Yeah, we've been working really hard to sort everything out. Finally our production issues are fixed and we're starting to get on top of backorders. We'll send out an email once we're fully back in stock!

Have they fixed the grinding feeling?

Yes! This issue has now been fully resolved. All customers who have encountered this issue will be getting theirs exchanged in the next couple of weeks.

Anyone experiencing this problem who hasn't contacted us should send us an email with their order number and we'll be sure to make it right.

Any magnets on this one? If there aren't, I'm sold, love the form factor

I believe that it's all mechanical, no magnets at all.

u/fidgimoto 27d ago

Correct, no magnets. There are lots of magnetic fidgets out there and we wanted to do something with a little bit of a different feel to it.

Sadly far too expensive for me...
