URGENT: Bounty Hunter boot LAST CHANCE!!!

[Fetthunter]

You must have a size 13 foot!

I *normally* wear a size 9 shoe, so when I found a pair of these that were a size 10 and unworn, I snagged them thinking that with some insoles, the extra space would be filled up. WRONG! Even with thick socks and a *good* pair of Dr. Scholl's athletic insoles, they're STILL a size or two too big! I think I could comfortably wear an 8...

Emailed TD the other day and he is coordinating with his maker and making corrections to make them more accurate. What those are I have no idea as they are f!*!*ng sweet.

Since I already have a pair to compare them to, I'll be eagerly awaiting these "corrections" to see just what is causing this delay...

Hes thinking a couple of months.

He said that a couple of months ago. What's the deal? Did they already make our batch, and they were crap? Did MC demand them to be done over? What are these "corrections"? I wanted a pair LIKE the pair that I have NOW.

Grrrrrr.... this is begining to irritate me... :facepalm

I lived in San Antonio for a number of years, and attended several Sci-Fi Expos down there. I got my Cheng boots right before a Sci-Fi Expo in Plano a couple years ago. I mean RIGHT before. The postman dropped them off at the apartment office at 2:30PM, and I picked up the box on the way out of town.

I had to weather them that night at the hotel. Those boots were gorgeous! I'll never forgive myself for weathering a perfectly good pair of boots.

They're comfortable enough to wear without pads or anything. As a matter of fact, I wear them to take the trash out, get the mail, etc...

I met Mark Cheng at SWC2 last year. He walked up and said "You're wearing my boots." It didn't click until he introduced himself. Nice guy! If you don't have these boots yet, get a loan, pawn your wife, do whatever...get these boots!

Thanks for ratchting up the "I can't wait" feelings!!!

 

[boba_fett77]

i am having those same kind of feelings, after i get the boots i can concentrate on serious things like a jet pack! lol

Talked to MC yesterday.....He said he should be hearing from the factory by the end of this week or the beginning of next......

Can you say: "YAH-HOOOO!!!"

 

[tteF aboB]

Yep me to today. Looks like next week. MC persistent work on our boots is greatly appreciated.

Sign me up for the boots. My feet size dimensions are 10" long X 4 1/4" wide (yes, I have extra wide feet) LOL. You determine the size based on this measures. Thanks.

 

[webchief]

Dude you missed the boat by about 4 or 5 months. That order was placed last year.

 

[Tim Allen]

I would email MC directly. I got in on the run about a month ago, but thats because i live like 10 mins from him....dunno if it too late for not

 

[Bountys Hunted]

Hey Tim, got any updates?

 

[Tim Allen]

Last one a heard, he said he was going to """hopefully""" hear something back from the fac. this week. But thats a stretch. Ill give him a buzz in a few days and see whats up, probable just the same as before, you guys know how it is...........Patience is a virtue. -Tim Allen

Hmmm, yep, heard that somewheres...have to go grab some!



Seriously though, when acquiring seriously cool Fett stuff, always have patience in abundance!!

 

[Tim Allen]

Talked to MC today, unfortuantly no new news, he said the fac. would give him an update this past week but they didnt. I guess one of the REPs. was on vacation so basically there's no updates.... O well thats expected. In good time boys, in good time.

I talked to MC about two weeks ago. He said that he'll do a pair for me for $200. I'm not sure if around that time (5 months ago, which I'm sorry that I forgot to read the post's date) they were the same price or cheaper, based on quantities.
