I live about 10 miles from Ron and it has been a pleasure to get to know him personally. He does have some great stories. I think it is fascinating that he chose this path since he really has no interest in pool!
Deano,
I think 1-2 years at most. I have been successful in selling a couple for him to my friends. If you like the tube style cases, I think is are the best. Even if he chose to continue, he is having a harder time finding the premium leathers. A couple of his major suppliers have gone under the past year.
Those I have in the works:
1X2 brown elephant with an ivory top cap
1X2 brown basket weave pattern (haven't seen one of these since Fellini)
2X4 bomber jacket style distressed brown with pouch and handle
3 - 2X4's with similar gator prints but in different colors than the one pictured in this thread.
I already have a satin black 2X5 with a strap and a 1X2 with the gator print cute horizontally instead of vertically like this one. They are all knockouts in my eyes. When I get them all in I will try to post a group pic. BTW, I have ordered all but the bomber jacket and elephant with the accessory cup in the lid.
