This all sounds to FOOBARRED to put up with.....I should just order the Lucas club jacket, and be done with it......All I read here is how long you all have been waiting...and about how There was a bad skin order EVERY time!.....I DO have to admire most of you, though...I would've retracted my order some time ago, if I'd been treated like that...

: : Called Wested this morning and after a moment of careful deliberation told that my order is backlogged behind two others (could it be FallGuys?!). "It will go out [referring to production] in 2-3 days." If this helps anyone judge where theirs might be along a timeline: I orginally placed my order April 13th. Keep in mind that on May 18th I was told the same thing as this morning. They have confirmed my suspicions that the "poor quality shipment of skins" is their usual customer service placation.

You're right Jimmie, if you're satisfied with a subcontracted substitute, made official only by slapping the LucasFilm, inc. logo inside. It's available, and out there for sale right off the rack. If you're wanting the original, hand made, one at a time version from the original maker, based on the original patterns, and actually priced lower than the copies, then patience is definitely a virtue, no matter what the reason for the hold up. Yep, been there, done that, know what everyone is experiencing. And yes, I'd do it again in a heart beat. Regards. Michaelson
