Allright California! Make sure you get a tracking number. Its a long way from A to B in your case.

Great news CJ.
I got a message from Graeme as well. He says that only the knots are left to do on mine. I remain skeptical, but, the fact that he took the time to send me a message does give me hope.
Make sure to get a tracking number and let us know when it arrives.

He's posted over on the cow too.... Seems he's got no money for the internet and has one week with it only? So maybe can't get emails after that? I'm seeing a pattern here, but it could all be true and work might really be kicking his a@se...
Hard to tell at this point since he's lied before...
Not sure what to say....I'm sorry all this is happening..

He said that his internet was only going to last the rest of the
week, maybe it's over?
I'm trying to give him the benefit of the doubt here, I know there
has been previous problems but I am earnestly hoping all these
problems are over, he has a talent that shouldn't be wasted.

Jeremy, are you one of us with an outstanding order?
I'd gladly get my money back at this point. Dusty's whips look to be a better choice. I'm sick of Graeme's "word." It's apparently worthless. Promises, promises, promises and they all seem very hollow indeed.

No but I know quite a few on COW who are, I understand that
he needs to give whips, but the way it's been described, We have
been in his situation before, and there is nothing you can do about
it most of the time.
I'm trying to be on both sides here, he does need to make the
whips that people paid for, but if people could be patient just
a little longer, some of you may have never been in a situation
like I was talking about, so you just don't understand.

No, you're right, I don't understand. What? We're practically being held hostage here. There is no two sides. My whip is 4 months overdue with no delivery time in sight. And I have no recourse. There is no two sides here.

Hey Riku/Jeremy,
Sorry to jump all over you like that. It is a sore subject for me at the moment. The guy keeps making promises that don't seem to get followed up and I have long since lost my patience.
Anyways, good to see you around these parts. How's the whip making going?

I'm hoping for the slight chance that he mailed it out and couldn't send the tracking# due to no Internet! I know it's slim but just maybe? it's now ONE YEAR FOUR MONTHS for my sanity i hope I'm not posting the same a month from now I have one of Dusty's L.C whips on the way so I'll remain cool FOR NOW!

Good God, over year of waiting, almost like waiting for AB hat. I hope they will be worth it. Graeme, I know you can make it!

Im also at the top of the waiting list like my comrades here. However Im not gonna make myself mental over this. I read somewhere that Graeme did not plan things to work out this way. He is not some kind of Lex Luthor of whipmakers, just a guy who made a couple of mistakes and they are turning out to be hard to rectify due to a series of personal tribulations that he has made public of these forums. He could have just dissapeared, it would have been the easiest thing to do. But the fact that he hasnt I think should keep our hopes up. oooohmmmmm... (Buddhist mantra, fyi

HEy thanks, I didn't take it offensively because I knew that you were becoming impatient ( I probably would have gone crazy after four months ) , I mean, I get worried when I order something, like from a leather store, and I don't get a tracking number in a single week! I can't imagine waiting for a whip for more than year, and I just hope we can get around all this. Whip making... hmm... I was going to order some kip from a tandy in another state ( it got discontinued and only a few stores have it ) but a few unexpected expenses came up, totally my fault, ... I hadn't been to six flags in years So Now I'm having to wait a little while, and hope nobody else grabs them.. They were discontinued over a year ago, I would hate to think that the two they've had that long get grabbed while I'm waiting. I recently got the ingredients to make my plaiting soap, so after I order the leather and a dene williams strander that will get cooked, then I guess I'll start working again
