Hello Everyone !
I want to let all of you know what is going on publically so none of you feel like the "odd-man-out"
As most of you already know, I have had some problems with my current shaftwood inventory not being properly aged prior to my cutting and finishing.. therefore this had caused unavoidable delays to my current customer's orders...
This issue is without compromise, if I rush it, I can guarantee you warpage down the road... and my quality of work is more important to me than the $$$
I except 100% of the blame, because I let myself get really low on shaftwood inventory, that I had hanging for 1 to 2 yrs before I went maintream, then I took for granted that the new shaftstock was from the same source and of course that's what I get for assuming, and as alot of you already know, you need to hang the wood for atleast 7-8 months before it's cured enough to consider ready!!!
Anyways, I am nearing finished the finish line with some of the orders, and are within a few to several weeks with others...I appreciate your understanding and patience regarding this embarassing predictament !
Even with the unavoidable delays I'm still way ahead of the rest of the cuemakers on here, as far as how long it takes to get you your cue from the time of order, from what I have seen and heard...
I just wanted to let you know that if anyone who has ordered a cue from me in the last 30-45 days that finds this to be an unacceptable delay, then I will have no choice but to refund your deposit...
Of course I hope it doesnt come to a refund, because of my low prices there's not much of a profit margin and most of the revenue is being reinvested in materials, in order to give all of you quality work at a great price and to solidify myself in this wonderful industry... In other words: I DON'T take much of a paycheck !!!
Anyways, I just wanted to reassure my customers that all is well and I will be sending you progress pics of your cues as soon as I'm at the designated photograph stages...
In closing.... This was just a polite notice to all my customers, and not intended as a topical discussion... I'm asking those of you nicely who don't like or approve you me, to completely disregard this bulletin and refrain from exploiting my efforts.. this post is intended for my customers only !
Thanks again for the overwhelmng response and acceptance of my cuemaking and the orders I have received because of it !
