Where's my holster? - Page 28

Nexttime · August 26th, 2009, 09:38 PM

Hi all. Bought a couple of holsters from KT Holsters : Concealment Holsters and Accessories For Kel Tec Pistols
I paid on July 13th. KT Holsters sent an email a few weeks later saying that they were waiting on a leather shipment. I've been trying to reach them and they have not responded to their email. There may be some other people in a similar situation with this company according to a thread on ktog.org (a kel-tec discussion forum).

I have a dispute pending with paypal as KT Holsters has not replied to any emails and does not offer a contact phone number on ktholsters.com.

Just wanted to share. If I hear anything from KTHolsters I will post a followup.

Looking for others who have delivery problems with Terry Savanich of Our Bandit Leather Crafters in Ohio.

$300 custom leather rig ordered '20' months ago (1/08). Can get 'NO' delivery date (originally 4 months) other than . . . "When I can get to it." by this company. Terry Savanich is 'very' difficult to get any kind of 'business like' response from. Makes you 'wait longer' if you question his non-completion of contract . . . as a 'lesson'!

Hopefully you paid by major Credit Card. If not you are probably screwed.

From The Web............

Dear Readers. I’ll not even pretend to know what the hell is going on with Terry Savanich of ‘Our Bandit Leather Crafters’ anymore. Over the last few months my mailbox has had increasing traffic telling me every possible version of horror story possible. Now the complaints have reached the point of at least one a day! It appears that for whatever reason - and despite making some mighty fine leather - Terry has decided to screw over dozens of would-be purchasers of his wares. Yep, I understand being sick. Done enough of that myself! However, there is NO reason that he couldn’t be honest and refund the money to his prepaid clients if he isn’t physically capable of doing the work he contracted to do.

As all of you are no doubt aware, I wrote of my praise concerning Terry’s leather work when I received, promptly, my leather from him. Now The Bull is feeling guilty for possibly leading many readers astray. (Gods! I hope that none of this really is my fault.) I can’t help but feel as if I’ve been ripped off, too, for supporting Terry in his business and in his supposed illness.

NOTE: The Bull, & ‘The Bull Speaks!‘, no longer supports, endorses, or is involved with Terry Savanich or ‘Our Bandit Leather Crafters’. These thieving business practices should not be condoned on any level. More, I recommend that anyone with an order for leather with Terry seek out the Better Business Bureau. If your case is not settled quickly, then you should consider a lawsuit.

Thanks

Well after three times the promised wait time, I received my Alligator paddle holster and mag pouch from Black Hills Leather. I had to prod Rudy via email for the past two weeks and once he mailed it, he sent it UPS ground which lengthened the delay time an additional week, but in the end it was worth it. What a great job. Workmanship is top quality. The entire holster and pouch are alligator, not just applied panels or pieces and the gun and mag fits to perfection. I wouldn't hesitate to order from them again. Wait time will be longer than promised, but what a finished product. My photos don't do justice to the quality of the work.

I ordered a holster from Brigade Gunleather 14 months ago. I have been promised delivery 3 times. Delivery delayed, it's in the mail, we sent it, WE LOST IT.... holster is in the mail again. They may have miscalculated alittle since the quoted delivery was about 6 to 7 months. (that was 7-23-2008). Calling this company is like callin' the White House.

You can NOT email them or leave a message. Communication is to say the least .... not possible with Brigade. They don't accept messages. Before anyone ask, "why didn't you cancel the order." Cuz ya can't reach em' to do so. If you do speak to someone..."it's in production" or "in the mail". Yep...I got strung along for 14 months. LOL

This company has to rank in the top 3 of WORST holster companies on the net. I can't comment on the quality.

I'm a pretty patient man but...this is beyond me. Don't waste your time

jcoxman · September 10th, 2009, 10:32 AM

Last I heard from Terry Savanich was an email dated 6/17/09 stating that, 'He would be finishing up my 'long overdue' (from 01/08)) order within the next 'few weeks' and wanted to verify that I still lived at the same address. Nothing what so ever since then . . . '12' weeks now.

This company would not accept credit card payment so I contacted my bank (Wells Fargo) and had them issue and mail 'Bill Pay' bank checks to Gail Savanich and noting the 'order numbers' to which these checks ($211/$80) were dedicated to.

Wells Fargo tracked the checks and has documentation that the checks 'were received' and Gail Savanich cash 'both' within a week of recept . . . which 'sealed the deal' and tied the bank check payments to the order numbers on my 'Our Bandit Leather Invoice/Receipt and Order Description' correspondence (with the contracts 'agreed to' and 'promised' delivery dates for the order.

I talked with Wells Fargo legal department yesterday and they are more than willing to assist with this documentation when I persue 'legal action' against this company(?) . . . which is NOT far off!

I read through this thread and checked out Coal Creek Armory online. They have a notice on their page that they are no longer going to carry the Brommeland Holsters and are liquidating the few they have left. I don't know if this is a good or a bad thing for anyone still in limbo with Gary. If this was brought up before and I missed it, I apologize for the redundancy.

No more Brommeland Gunleather at Coal Creek Armory

I also have an order with Brigade Holsters. Quoted 7 to 8 months at the time of order. That was June/26/2008. Apparently they're only taking phone calls on Fridays now. Last time I spoke with them 2 months ago, they just started on June 08's orders. Still nothing.

This is the worst business I have ever dealt with. I'm about the call my credit card company and see if I can just stop any charges made by Brigade. At this point, I don't even want the damn thing.

RogerThat · November 2nd, 2009, 06:00 PM

Still haven't gotten it. I contacted I guess the dude who makes them, and is the primary owner by email. He wont pick up the phone. I've called several times on different occassions. He sent me the tracking number, and I looked up the tracking number and it says it went to my local area and than was available at a p.o. box. Than was forwarded because of wrong address. Which is why I'm assuming he put the wrong address on it. I than emailed him about 4 days later which was this morning, and it being now 5pm I would assume he would have read it by now seeing its a buisness email. I'm very unhappy with the way this has gone. I've ordered more than a few things online, this is the first time I've had something sent to me usps, instead of ups or fedex, and this is horrible. I spent nearly 80.00 on a holster that I haven't even gotten. I don't have just 80.00 to just throw away and forget about.

I've checked the tracking number recently and there has been no update in 4 days.

grimm · November 2nd, 2009, 06:32 PM

If it is USPS, call them and they will tell you which PO it went to. Then visit the PO, tracking # in hand.
