A lot of us here have ordered custom Westeds. How long it takes depends on if the leather you want is in stock, how much of a list you have is being customized and the time of season when they get hit up with large orders. The one I got last year (which I since sold off) took me about 2-3 months.

Both of my custom Westeds took about 1 month. (Raiders HH February 2009, ROLA WG November 2009)

Two month a half due to the waiting for a new Novapelle batch. ;)

My custom ROLA took 19 days from order to arrival. Placed the order March 10, and received the jacket on March 29. No special mods were requested (such as yoke-to-sleeve seam placement). Just a straight-forward custom.

I've ordered two, both took about a month from time of order to time of delivery. Both were standard customs, with some minor requests that were ignored. Customer service was much better in 2006 when I ordered the first. Second one came in 2008, but communication was much worse. I didn't receive any kind of shipping notice the second time around; it just showed up at my post office one day.

My custom novapelle Raiders jacket ordered in 2008 actually arrived quicker than the OTR Raiders authentic lamb jacket ordered a few months earlier of the same year. The custom took 19 days to arrive from order date, they did ignore my request on the sliders instead of d-rings, the OTR took 5 weeks.
