Dean's been cool about keeping me updated, and according to him, the order will be done before the end of the month, but there definitely is some delay with these MTOs.

But out of curiosity, when you spend a grand or more on a pair of MTO shoes and you are left waiting 2 months+ longer than you expected, shouldn't there be some sort of kick-back involved? Even if it's a % off your next purchase or something, you're paying damn good money for a luxury product. Just my $0.02.

If I told one of my clients they would have a deliverable in 2 months and then kept them updated every day, only to say that it was not going to be ready for another two months at the deliverable date I think I would lose that client pretty quickly.
