Since you mentioned charging for orders in advance and Milt Sparks in the same gripe, I thought I'd better chime in to set the record straight.

Hello Tony
I'm sorry for the confusion. I should have been clearer. My only reason for mentioning your name or Josh Bulman's was; 1: 2 1/2 years ago it only took 4 months to get my top of the line iwb holster from Josh Bulman, with all the fine boning, but IMHO the good looking boning wasn't necessary 2: The Milt Sparks Watch Six was two pieces of leather with no fancy unnecessary detailing, which was fine with me. I wasn't going to wait, so I was willing to pay the higher price charged by a retailer.
The question I have for all of you is, with the amount of back log of customer orders you guys have, how do you manage to keep retailers in stock?

Except for a couple of conditions which we describe in full on the FAQ on our site, we do not bill the customers credit card until the customers "completed" order is sitting in a box, ready to be shipped.
Approximately 2% of all orders are paid for in advance in accordance to the conditions set forth in our FAQ. But for the other 98%, we get paid only when we finish the job and no sooner.

Wow! That's better then what I suggested. What that says to me is that you use company funds to buy materials. That says a lot about your good business ethics
