Well, they might not all be asked frequently, but these are questions
Q: What’s So Darn Special or Different About the Skint Wallet?
A: Well, for one thing, it is flexible enough to handle up to a dozen (or more) cards and still have room for your cash bills. And another thing, the Skint Wallet is designed to help you be more efficient by easily prioritizing the cards you use most. Oh, and we don’t know if this a big deal to you personally, but carrying a Skint Wallet will make you more alluring and attractive to potential mates.(*)
Q: How Do I Properly Use My Skint Wallet?
A: Open your Skint Wallet and put in your cash and cards. Close your Skint wallet. Then, when you need to pay for something, or when you want to impress an iguana, slide the strap off the shoulder, open your Skint and remove the cash and/or cards needed to make your purchase.
Q: Ok, Well I've Done Everything You Just Said. Now How Do I Properly Close My Skint Wallet?
A: Always close the right-hand side first, then fold the left-hand side over the top. If you're still working on properly distinguishing right and left, the right side is the one with the strap attached to it. You'll know you've done it right if you don't see any oval cut outs (or “Pocket Windows” if you will) on the outside of your folded Skint Wallet.

Q: Why Are There Plastic Inserts in the Card Pockets?
A: The inserts make it easier to get your cards in and out, so leave 'em there. IMPORTANT SAFETY MESSAGE: These are NOT to be used as a flotation device in event of a water landing.
Q: How Many Cards Will My Skint Wallet Hold?
A: You can get a dozen or more standard credit cards, debit cards, driver's licenses, school IDs, library cards, etc. in a Skint Wallet. Our super-stretchy fabric, plus high-quality stitching, holds your cash and cards securely. Even better, you can ‘overstuff’ your Skint so there is ‘always room for one more’ … because you never know when your Aunt Mildred will give you a gift card for your birthday.
Q: No, Seriously, Will Using a Skint Wallet Make Me More Alluring and Attractive to Potential Mates?
A: Yes. Absolutely, unequivocally yes.(*)

Q: Gosh It Seems Like the Skint Wallet Will Fit Into Pretty Much Any Pocket!
A: Actually, this is not even a question. Please try to keep up. But yes, if your Skint doesn’t fit, it’s probably not a pocket.
Q: “Skint” Seems Like a Funny Name – What’s Up With That?
A: In the United Kingdom, the word ‘skint’ means “light in the pocket.” Since the Skint wallet is exceptionally light, and because it goes in your pocket, the name seems to fit, so to speak.
Q: Three of the Card Pockets Have Oval Cut-Outs. What the Heck Are Those For?
A: First, what are you, a barbarian? NEVER end a sentence with a preposition. Trust us - we know what we're speaking of. Second, we’re glad you asked! The Pocket Windows make it easy to slide the cards in and out. Just use your thumb or your prehensile tail and you’re good to go.
Q: What Forms of Payment Are Accepted for Online Purchases?
A: We are pleased to accept payment via PayPal, Visa, Mastercard, Discover & American Express. We regret that we are not able to accept bushels of wheat or giant bags of gold bullion at this time. (But we do acknowledge that we REALLY REALLY want to get giant bags of gold for each Skint because that would be awesome. Sigh.)

Q: Hey You Wacky Skint People, I’m an International Person of Mystery. What Do I Need to Know About Currencies?
A: Really, there are two matters to consider with respect to currency: the ‘display’ currency and the ‘charging’ currency. Our nifty website displays the price in USD (United States Dollars). Then, when you decide to purchase we’ll charge your card in USD. If you're using a non-USD credit card, your local card-issuing bank will convert the amount into your card's currency. Easy peasy.
Q: Once I Place My Order, How Long Will It Take To Receive My Skint Wallet?
A: Well, that sorta depends on where you live and, more importantly, how recently we have fed the OPM (‘order packing monkey’) at the nearest Skint warehouse. Generally speaking, though, you should receive it in 5-10 working days. (Frankly, it’s probably closer to 5 than 10 days, but we’ll sandbag our answer and say that you will almost certainly get your Skint products before our sun burns out and shrivels to a crispy husk.)
Q: Do You Ship Internationally?
A: Yup. But only on planet Earth. For now. For our non-US customers, please note that any customs duties, charges or tariffs are your responsibility. (Hey man, we don't make the rules, just the wallets.)
Q: Will I Be Able to Track It Once My Order Has Shipped?
A: In North America, in most if not all cases we will be able to provide you a tracking number. In other locations, this will vary.

Q: Can I Wash It?
A: Well, assuming you’re talking about your Skint Wallet, then yes, you can wash it. However, we have two recommendations: (1) you are advised to remove your cards, cash and the plastic inserts BEFORE washing, either by hand or in the washing machine with a mild detergent. (2) We suggest you ‘hang dry’ your freshly washed Skint Wallet and not subject it to the dizzying effects of a spin dryer.
Q: Can My Team / Club / Group / Witches' Coven Sell Skint Wallets as a Fund Raiser?
A: Absolutely! That’s a fantastic idea, and one that we wish we’d thought of ourselves. You are a genius of near-mythical proportions. Please contact us (via the ‘Contact Us’ page – see what we did there?) to see how we can work together to help your group.
Q: Why Aren’t There Sharp Corners to Jam Into My Leg or Snag My Clothes?
A: We think most folks prefer their daily self-torture devices to be larger and more complicated. Remember, this product is inspired by tiny-pocketed Himalayan monks who are not known to be over-fond of jagged edges.
Q: Do You Do Custom Orders / Colors?
A: Yes, and no. Because we are super beings for whom manipulating space-time is a trivial diversion, custom orders are, indeed, possible. However, as you might imagine, there are some production minimums and extra costs involved. If you’re not seeing what tickles your compact, flexible, light and all-around awesomely awesome wallet needs, please Contact Us and we’ll see how we can help you best.

Q: What’s Up With All This Iguana Talk, Anyway?
A: What, you got a problem with big lizards?

A: Cool! We already love you and we want to have your two-headed love child. Please Contact Us and we’ll start the conversation about how you can offer the world’s most stupendously amazing product to your customers.
Q: I Have a Deep and Abiding Interest in Trivial Facts. Will You Scratch My Itch and Tell Me the Specs?
A: Certainly. Skint is all about helping people achieve satisfaction. In fact, we're gonna stuff your brain so full of info you'll have to hire a person to help you carry your fact-swollen head around! When folded over and closed, each Skint Wallet measures 2 3/8” x 3 1/2” x 7/16” (~60 x 89 x 11mm). And when opened up to full size, each Skint measures 7 1/8" x 1/8" x 3 1/2": (~178 x 12 x 215mm). Naturally, the latter-most dimension will grow once you start putting in your cash and cards. In addition, a Skint Wallet weighs about 2/3 of an ounce (~19g), which is about the weight of a ballpoint pen. Also, you might like to know that an adult blue iguana can weigh as much as 30 pounds, which is more than 700 Skints-worth.(**)
Q: This Seems Like an Excessively Lengthy FAQ Section. Is All This Really Necessary?
A: Yes. Yes it is. Our ultra top secret plan is to mercilessly hammer you until you simply give up and just Go Buy Some Skint Wallets. Resistance is futile!

Q: Given the Awesomely Awesome Nature of this Totally Awesome Product, Do I Need to Be Prepared to Fend Off Hordes of Ninjas Bent on Wresting My Skint Wallet from My Pocket?
A: Well, although past performance is not a guarantor of future results we have always found it prudent to be prepared for this precise type of emergency. We suggest you carry an iguana at all times. Ninja hordes hate iguanas.(*)
