I recently ordered a custom cross draw pistol holster from a leathercrafter in NC. True custom where I selected a dark mahogony color, double black stiching and body shield. Price was around $130. While ordering the website brings up a warning that they are 8-12 behind in filling orders and it will be 8-12 before you will receive your holster. Ok, no big deal. I am not in a hurry and will wait for a custom made piece. The website then offers to let you pay a $29.99 "EXPEDITED SERVICE FEE" with the announcement that paying the fee will "bring you order to the top of the fulfillment list and you will not incur the 8-12 week backlog delay!!!! WELL, JUST PAY A FEE TO CUT IN LINE WHY DON'T WE? UHHHH NOPE! I ain't in a hurry and that extra $30 brings the holster into what I call "premium" holster work! So I decline the shakedown and do not choose the "expedited service fee". I order about 9 p.m. at night. I get an email confirmation the next morning and a few hours later another email stating that my holster was being made and would ship in 3 days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Whattttttttt??????????? I thought y'all were backed up 8-12 weeks?????????????
Is it me or does crap like this, piss you off? They obviously aren't backed up 8-12 weeks but are playing off peoples impatience and desire to get it quick by shaking the down for an extra $30 bucks when in acutality you are going to get it expedited anyway!
