Coming up on 9 years for two hats. Numerous emails have gone unanswered. Offers to roll payment of two hats just to get one have gone unanswered. Offers to pay the difference have gone unanswered. But funny how when one inquiries about purchasing a new hat I get a reply in two days and continued co...

Chewie Louie

Beautiful little promo. Really. Wow. And something that is well known out here but I forget - is your CS block the Steve movie block or your interpretation? It's all gorgeous. Me, I'm with 3 Penman hats now and only one head. I might grow another head though when that Raiders rabbit comes out... Al...

Chewie Louie

Nice! By the way, when did you order yours?

Chewie Louie

Thank for opening this thread. It's nice to know that Steve is well and that he is still working. I'm still waiting on the hat I ordered in February of 2008 myself. A couple of months ago I called him and actually spoke with his mother, and she said he was doing fine. I called the cell phone number ...

You should Photoshop an ice cream cone in your hand. If only there was someone adept at Photoshop around here we could call on.

Chewie Louie

Thanks for the tips. I'll try to avoid taking it out when it rains, or on amusement park rides.

So I had a dream last night that I finally got my fedora (from a vendor who shall remain nameless) but that my excitement for it was short lived. I recall being wowed in the dream by the beauty of my hat, but as the course of dreams often take, you can be doing one thing one moment and instantly fin...

Chewie Louie

Great looking lid. Someday soon for me too I hope.

Thanks for the update Joe.

I hear ya Kokopelli, but fulfilling the demand of so many that want one of Steve's hats is like a . . .

When did you and your brother order yours? And when did you get them?

Chewie Louie

I think most of us here on COW have read that already BendingOak, and most of us were quick to welcome him back and wish him nothing but the best of health for the rest of his life. I wrote him as he requested, and he responded that he did in fact still have my order. But others have not received th...

Chewie Louie

I'm gonna respectfully disagree with you BendingOak. When I placed my order with Steve back in Feb. of 2008 I actually spoke with him on the phone. He told me there was a wait for one of his hats, but I had no idea how long. When I asked if there was a chance I could have my hat by October of that y...

Chewie Louie

Still nothing? This continues to be a vexing problem for everyone that has ordered a hat from Steve. Based upon the health issues he shared with us not too long ago, I certainly hope that Steve is o.k. However, this does raise an issue that one-man proprietorships must be prepared for and that is: W...

Chewie Louie

It's obvious Steve has been through quite a lot in recent months. Quite frankly, I'm surprised that he is still at it, but I am grateful that he is because I still hope to get one of his hats real soon. Nevertheless, for the longest time it has appeared that he has been overwhelmed with the workload...

Chewie Louie

For what it is worth, on June 29, I got a short response from Steve (after I inquired) that he had all my order info.

Chewie Louie

Well, thanks a lot guys. After seeing this thread I just had to go and order another Indy jacket.

Chewie Louie

Wow! That really puts things into perspective. Thank you Michaelson for posting that link. Steve, glad to hear you are still with us and hopefully for many more years to come.

Chewie Louie

Ok Steve, a new date has been set. You have until October 21.

Chewie Louie

Steve, any chance we can all get our hats before May 21?

Chewie Louie

Hey Fellas, I don't know what all the fuss is about? I just e-mailed Steve Delk and ordered a new Raiders AB. I had included my phone number when I ordered and one hour later I get a call from Steve. Turns out he has a brand new Raiders in my size and offered it to me straight away for half price!!...

Chewie Louie

5 years. Mine got lost in the shuffle when the flood gates opened with CS. Regards! Michaelson Because there is virtually no communication with his customers regarding order status, many people fear this is what has happened to theirs. If it wasn't for all the positive reviews from people that wait...

Your Adventurebilt order survival kit should include:

Unavailable for comment.

Chewie Louie

I agree that, if you get in line for an AB, you gotta know you're in for a long wait. Pure and simple. If you can't deal with that, stay off the line. However, I think a lot of customer anxiety could be avoided if Steve did what John Penman does. Every once in a while, put up a brief post announcin...

Chewie Louie

Recent photo of me waiting for my AB.

Chewie Louie

It does look like I'm waiting afterall. & I appreciate the work Steve Delk does, as well as his acomplishments - which are remarkable. This particular sub-forum lends itself to venting. I took advanatge of it. It may have something to do with turning 59. Or maybe just waiting. Good luck to us a...

Chewie Louie

Maybe on an older version it was a cap, but my tip is painted orange.

Chewie Louie

Alright, as usual the Indy costume was a hit and the new replica S&W I got from Todd's just in time was the icing on the cake. I waited until the party was in full swing before I "shot" something. As expected, it was an attention getter. First it was a mechanical ghoul hiding in the mi...

Chewie Louie

Well, I got my Todd's today just in time for the party tonight. First impression: me likey a lot. Feels good in my hand. Kind of a pain in the butt to load the shells with the caps, but it sounds really nice. Sure to be an attention getter. I'll take pics and post a more detailed review next week.

Chewie Louie

Darn it, this might have been a better option. http://www.speedytoys.com/shop/item.asp?itemid=6231&catid= Opinions? Photoss may not approve, but Todd's is out of my price range right now. As a holster stuffer, that looks decent enough for me. I just ordered it from Amazon (SpeedyToys.com is uni...

Chewie Louie

This will be my third Halloween with a crummy hat. I think I'm starting to lose it.

Chewie Louie

Darn it, this might have been a better option.

Opinions?

Chewie Louie

Well, I finally pulled the trigger (heh, heh, heh) and placed an order for one of Todd's guns. I'm sure there are replicas that are more SA, but I wanted a little bang for my buck. (Get it? Bang . . . for my buck?) I know, I got nothing. It's been a boring day. Anyway, I'll post my thoughts on the g...

Chewie Louie

Hmmm, I placed my order in February of 2008. Should I be worried and maybe send Steve an "urgent" email?

Chewie Louie

Sorry to hear Nowaks is closing for good. I for one will be preserving my jacket . . . by wearing it. Without question it's what Tony would have wanted. I just don't get putting it away into storage where no one will appreciate it. Unless you want a "pristine" jacket to display it in a pri...

Chewie Louie

Anyone get a hat lately?

Chewie Louie

Thanks for the update Steve. I think everyone pretty much respects your work as an artisan, so you shouldn't have to feel stressed about venturing into threads like this. I think the frustration people sometimes exhibit isn't towards you or the mistaken belief that you aren't working fast enough, I ...

Not me. I chuckled quite a bit.

Chewie Louie

What's the latest news? Has anyone gotten a hat recently? The two year anniversary of my order is coming up on the 27th and I was wondering if Steve was on 2008 orders yet.

Chewie Louie

Yikes! Coming up on 2 years. I ordered mine in February of '08, and I thought I would have it be the end of that year. Well, they say that good things come to those who wait. The best thing to do is to forget you ordered one and try not to visit this section of COW to often.

Chewie Louie

Top of the muffin to you!

Chewie Louie

Thanks. But now I'm wishing you never showed me that thread. *sigh*

Chewie Louie

Understood. But wasn't the gun altered for the movie by shortening the barrel length? If so, then I would imagine the gun could be duplicated, without the S&W logo of course.

Chewie Louie

Anyone know of any adult sized cap or blank firing guns that are close, if not exact replicas of the guns used by Indiana? Been thinking about finally getting a resin prop, but it would be nice (under the right settings) to pull out the prop and fire a couple shots. I've found quite a few web sites ...

Chewie Louie

Just a thought, but couldn't you just make a mold of the gun and sell replicas of it and make more money in the long run? Just wondering.
