To be fair, you can encounter long wait times here too. I've been waiting 16 months and counting to get my armor back from a painter, and a year and counting on items from 2 other members. So don't be scared off by that 16 months quote from BM, because he's just being realistic. There's a chance you could run into a similar wait times if you commission folks here. Bobamaker at least tells you up upfront that it's gonna take a long time...
If you're an average sized guy, the quickest way to Fett is may be to keep a close watch on the Cargo Hold and forgo commissions. But buying used stuff can be risky if you're not comfortable working on this stuff or if you're not up to speed on prop sizes. You could end up with stuff not quite right for your body type.
Good luck
