Boat is not missed. Email might have been. Please resend.

That's why I send out so much communication . . . because I have so much coming in, I want to make sure nothing gets missed.

Sizing???

Post by Corby de la Flamme »

Any info about whether (as warned in the thread) these actually do run small?

All shoes are in transit. No idea about an ETA, the volcano is still viking.

And yes, viking is a verb. Deal with it. :lol:

This is what I was afraid of. :(
I could have made my own shoes by now. (And by "make", I mean; raised the cow, killed it, tanned the hide...you get the idea...)

Looks like it's going to be Air Jordans for Pennsic again this year. :sad:

Worry not, Cian...they will be on your hot feet long before Pennsic. :D

They are shipping from Pakistan, folks... Cross-country shipments via UPS ground take longer.

Yes, but "any time" will probably (<-my eternal optimism) not be in time for Lilies. This makes those of us who are going sad.

It was a large order 150 Pairs -- and we did it with high quality and craftsmanship.

so we can say that quality and craftsmanship applied to all these footwear will erase all :( :( :( :( :(

and will bring :) :) :) :) :) to faces

Today we will supply tracking number to Ben Mudd for these orders.

If they're not here for you to go to Lillies, this means they also won't be here in time for me (and a bunch of other people) to go to Dagorhir's Ragnarok the same week, which will make me a very not happy camper also.

But, I do not expect that to be the case. I'll be sending out an email asking who all is going to Lillies so I can make sure yours get reshipped first, and if it's late enough that I'm not sure shipments will make it I'll see what I can do about next daying all the Lillies orders to one person who'd be willing to redistribute them in person at the war.

In other words, the week of Lillies is my hard deadline for this and I'll make sure that I do everything I can to get these to everybody who needs them by then.

Just to give you all a little more hope, my (smaller) order arrived in London on May 17th, I got tracking early May 18 and the shipment was in my hoes on the afternoon of the 19th. If tracking is available today, I'd wager that Talaananthes will have the shoes by Friday at latest.

There are 150 pairs in the shipment so we divided the order into three shipment and these three parcels were shipped one by one to save Ben from import duties etc.

All these parcels will get delivered to him this weekend or early next week.

I hope this helps you guys waiting for your footwear for some event.

just remember you cant please everybody.
some people will complain no matter what.
some people will not like the shoes they get.
some may say they recieved something other than what they ordered.
some people will say its taking too long.
but not everybody.
im sure that when the order is delivered most people will be happy.
especially if the quality is as high as proposed.

Figures that the boots I wear all time fell apart last weekend in the rain!
Looking forward to the new footwear.

Apparently DHL tried to deliver the first lot of shoes today but failed.

"Address information needed; contact DHL Customer Service."

But, it's here at least and should be in my hands tomorrow (hopefully).

I do not yet have tracking numbers for the other two boxes.

Ah, sadness - I was hoping to have the shoes for my husband's anniversary present on 6/23. :( Oh well - I suppose I'll have to go with plan B, and save the shoes for his birthday in August!

I'm really sorry, if I had known I would have put you on the pre-Rag shipment list along with people who were going to Lillies War, West Crown, etc. :sad:

I'll see what I can do, it might still be possible to get them to you on the 23rd.

Everyone else--All remaining shoes will go in the mail this week.
