Just tell her it was a birthday gift from your friends at DWC, in other words, lie.

thanks for staying on top of this. does it mean that greg didn't make our straps yet?streetracer101 wrote:Straps are here and will ship tomorrow. GGD and Denizen..there was a bit of a snafu on your stuff..probably because I sent payment for it after the big order. I've already let Greg know.
Everything else will ship in the AM.
Yes, but he is going to try to have them out by tomorrow.Denizen wrote:thanks for staying on top of this. does it mean that greg didn't make our straps yet?streetracer101 wrote:Straps are here and will ship tomorrow.

Greg's name is still on these straps even though he gave us a discount. He doesn't strike me as someone that cuts corners.Denizen wrote:no problem...i can wait. just hope he's not rushin' the quality.streetracer101 wrote:Yes, but he is going to try to have them out by tomorrow.Denizen wrote:thanks for staying on top of this. does it mean that greg didn't make our straps yet?streetracer101 wrote:Straps are here and will ship tomorrow.

from Rob's post, the bulk of the Dec order is fine but and it wasn't until he got the shipment that it was discovered that two straps were not made. so these two stragglers might indeed be 'rushed' since the turnaround time only seems to be a day or two on Greg's end.patstarrx wrote:Rushin the quality ?

i have a GSD strap already and can attest to his quality [under normal circumstances]. but with an order as large as ours on top of his normal orders, it could have impacted him esp with the holidays. IIRC, the original timeline was that the DWC order was to have finished in mid-January so that fact that this got pushed out nearly a month later is an indication that the man is busy. i'm sure he made sure that the main order got done right.nishant wrote: Exactly ..

I understand your concern. I don't want to make excuses for Greg because I honestly have no idea how busy his day job or strap making business is. But, I do know that the main reason for the date push back was because he had some heavy ish happen in his personal life and had to take some time off for a few weeks.
There was actually only one missed strap and 2 keychains. While I am sure Greg has other stuff going on, I am fairly certain that he'll take the time necessary to make the stuff right. He'll have about 3 days from the time I notified him to make basically 1 strap. I am pretty sure he can handle that.
In any event, if you aren't happy with it when you receive it, drop him a line and see what can be done. He is a fair, honest guy, so I am sure he'll do you right in the end.
Again, sorry that your (and GSD) stuff got missed. Unfortunately it happens, but I understand it sucking a bit more when you're the one it happens to.

I've owned quite a few straps, some from great makers, and this is right up there with the best of them. Maybe my favorite strap ever already. Going to look absolutely amazing when it patinas. Thanks Greg, and thanks Rob for making this happen.
