I kind of agree, but theoretically once they expand some and beat off the stack of orders they'll get back to that being the case.
I've thought a couple times about mailing to check in on my order and then I see people freaking out on the FB group and think 'eh, I can give them another week without bothering anyone and see'. My wife on the other hand is sick of me talking about it and hopes they come here soon so I shut up about it. |

It's going to be a while before they're back on track, though.. holiday season is just ramping up. Lead times have not stopped growing. From what Knytiri just posted, he makes it sound like next year is when lead times will stop increasing and start decreasing. I'm not complaining, I understand everyone at SF is working diligently but this is just the reality of it. I think it would be beneficial for them to take my suggestion for the time being, since it's gonna be a while. |

Unfortunately, doing such a thing would mean revamping the ENTIRE shipping process. While that might be something that we do in the future, doing it now would slow us down, as everyone struggled to adjust to a different system. This is just the way things are; you'd have to see the inside (which you won't, unless you work here...) to understand it all.

I think he just means the text saying 3-5 days should be altered. Like saying that the shipping email means the saber entered the queue, and it'll be shipped probably within the next 2 to 4 weeks or something. |

Fair enough, I'm sure it's a much more complicated process than most realize. Including myself. One question I have is if I ordered my saber when lead times were 5-6 weeks, and now they're up to 8-10, I should be expecting 8-10 weeks, correct? I got my shipped notification about 3 or 4 days ago but I know that doesn't really mean much. I'm just curious. Also, that arbiter in your signature, it looks like it has little slit windows in the emitter... But on Etsy I don't see those windows. Is your's custom? I ask because it might be my next saber purchase, it looks like a great saber. Especially with that purple (indigo?)... makes it look fantastic. |

Unless I am mistaken, that is they way they look after a recent revision, and the photo on Etsy just has not been updated yet. Amazing how so subtle a change made such a world of difference in my outlook on that model.
