yeah I've been hearing some iffy reviews lately

Took quite some time for my Brutal order to come in too...but they made it in the end - yay

Speaking of waiting excessive amounts of time for orders to arrive how is 2 months for a Homewood order...and NOT hearing back from the owner once??? Fingers crossed I can get a full-refund through PayPal.

A curtsey email explaining an extended delay (or something being out of stock) takes less than 2-min to type and send. Sorry Homewood, there is 'busy' and than there's not giving a shit at all...

I think justin just moved

Ive been waiting for a little while on a 4th of July order, with out any notification of anything from witchcraft. Which is saddening, because I was looking forward to it.. >.<

Even if this where so, I still think a curtsey email/update is the right thing to do. At the very least an update on the website explaining no orders will be completed/started until [said date].

Trent's been busy. You'll get your package just give it some time. It's an issue with the postal system. Also some of you are out of the US so even then international shipping is a pain in the ass.

Now wait, I'm actually confused: is it Trent being busy, or the postal system being a problem? Or both?

Same thing is happening to me at the moment with Airflow rails brutalfingerbords and baswe decks....

I really hope it is just international shipping.... although my stuff from flatface and yellowwood never fail same as steephillfb witch is also a small company they are good with shipping my only concern is for all the bands I mentioned above besides the ones I say are good with shipping didn't supply tracking numbers only order has been received email and took money out my bank... witch is kinda sad

Postal system is fine to my understanding. I pretty much buy EVERYTHING I need online (mostly from foreign countries) and the longest I have to wait for an order in generally 2.5 weeks, occasionally 3 weeks from Asian countries (-as long as nothing is being sent via surface mail that is). Delays longer than this are 9 times out of 10 due to the seller not shipping on time...but sometimes accidents do indeed happen (-again, I find problems to mostly occur when stuff is sent via surface mail).

Still, busy or not, it seems like so many people wait for months to get stuff from him. If people are sending you money, I would think it is a bit of a priority to send the orders out in a reasonable amount of time...can't always blame it on the post office

The thing is that the packages have been sent seeing as how USPS currently is still delivering them. Once packages leave your hand you are pretty much at the mercy of the post office and an angry mob of customers. Just a thought but remember the post office sells you insurance almost guaranteeing that they won't screw with your package and if they do they'll compensate you.

Thing is though, I don't even know if Trent sent anything yet. Not confirmation, nothing. And further, tracking numbers are a standard in the system nowadays so it could be tracked to see where it was

Exactly my point that I stated last post only confirmation I have received is them taken my money thats it.

I can post numerous tracking numbers from yellowwood, flatface, broken knuckle etc etc etc

I cant post anything from brutalfingerbords, airflow, bawse or oak wheels....

Emailed Bawse and airflow 3 days ago with no reply, seen the reviews on brutalfingerbords now I have also sent emails with no response thus far.

Bawse, Airflow, Brutal, and I think Oak are one man companies??? Oak is notoriously for long shipping and horrible customer support. I wouldn't really worry about the other companies. Also HSK you're outside the states so shipping will take a while. I know this may be a little be late to say this but give it time. I've dealt with Trent before and minus a shipping delay with USPS that got covered on the news I did get my packages quickly.

I got you its just I think everyone just wants a reply from the dude if you are busy fine but stay in contact you can't deny that's just being professional Trent seems like a cool guy and I bet he is busy but just reply to people is all anyone wants

Yes, but if a majority of people who buy stuff from him have to wait months for their stuff...that is not on the post office. Of course the post office screws up some time, but i doubt they're delaying or losing every single package from Brutal. I just sounds like he doesn't send them out for a long time and doesn't really answer emails.

He seems like a cool dude though and I know everyone around here likes him. Just sounds like he can be a little more responsive.

From what I have read/seen, Justin takes care of his customers. I am almost certain that there will be a nice extra in there for you.. I would realy like to try a Homewood, his decks look soo nice.

wow, didn't intend this to make a big deal and it's not the shipping time with my order it's a custom deck that took over a month to get an update about and he hasn't emailed any updates of the finished product in a month since, so i know he hasn't shipped out

trent seems like a cool guy and i've been quite patient, but over 2 months for a package is a bit strange

Should I buy a Flashbone bag (Fake tho) or not?

i just got one off ebay for10.99 US free shipping
