Post by Prof. Ed »

Hi all, What is the delivery time for a real life, sure enough, Wested?
To the Midwest of course:)

From the time you submit your measurements, to the time it shows up at your door, is about a month. :wink:

Just don't tell Gobler that!

Seems to be 4-5 wks sometimes more at busier times.

HJ aren't you supposed to be drinking with the rest of the reprobates? BTW those dungeness crabs are wonderful. there's a place upstairs at Peir 39 called the Crab House that has fabulous sizzling platters. I know it's a expensive tourist trap! But it's great.

I'm on my way! I just woke up in Santa Barbara, so I am 92 miles away. I should be in LA by this afternoon and I am staying on the Ship tonight.
And yes, those crabs are awesome!!! I cannot get enough of them. I'll have to see if we can get those at Haymarket back home.

Ed, a month is about par. However, some of us have had long waits. I waited 3 months, but it was well worth it. :)

I'd say just over, or just under a month depending. That is in real time. But in your minds time, FOREVER! Illinois

Ditto. I ordered and received mine last August. It's the lamb and it fits like butter!

(OK, I've never actually worn butter but this jacket is really, really NICE!)

I would have to agree with a month as that's exactly how long mine took. I wouldn't get your hopes up like I did when Gemma said typical delivery was 21 days.

I ordered it the 7th or the 13th of october (can't remember which one of the two dates)... in every case it would go over a month. I haven't received my jacket yet.

Erri, my friend,I was just about to ask how things were going.

Why don't you give them a call to give them a gentle nudge.

I ordered mine on the 24th of June, it was ready on the 30th of June. I was on a holiday so I told them to dispatch it after the holiday. The jacket was dispatched on the 13th of July and received one week later, on the 20th of June. So mine took about two weeks.

Just under one week to make :tup: impressive!

It makes sense - early summer, before people start taking holidays and when most people aren't thinking about leather jackets - is their slowest time. IF there isn't a film job on.

Sept to Jan probably busiest.
