Members mikesmith648 Posted November 19, 2012 Members Report Posted November 19, 2012 And it is hunting season...........I financed his last trip when I bought tools there.......lol Quote Emergency Room Nurse by profession.......Leatherworker at heart!! Hoping to reverse the order in that one of these days!!
Chief31794 Posted November 19, 2012 Report Posted November 19, 2012 I bought two checkered bevelers and a basket weave a couple of weeks ago, there were no problems then. Like they said above, he may be closed for the holdiays. Also make sure you're calculating the time zones right, he is in Wyoming which I think is on Pacific time or at least Mountain time.

Members swivel knife Posted November 23, 2012 Author Members Report Posted November 23, 2012 @ bluesman1951 Thank you for your frindship The problem is not fixed. I can't reach Barry King. I don't know where is the problem. I emailed him and I try to call him. ciao Lutz Quote Please don't be angry about my worst english. I have to learn this.

Members Skwerl Posted November 23, 2012 Members Report Posted November 23, 2012 I placed an order with him on the 13th I haven't heard hide nor hair from him. I paid with PayPall too, money already transferred. I just figured the holidays, but now you got me worried. Quote

You didn't indicate where you are, if you're over seas it could take some time to get them to you. I've bought tools from Barry King for years and he doesn't communicate well, I'll agree but he does deliver and it is very high quality merchandise. I placed an order around the same time, not sure of the date, as I said above and the tools were delivered within 5 days, I think it was more like 3. I would call on Monday, they probably won't be in today or this weekend because of Thanksgiving, but they should be back to work on Monday and they are in the Mountain Time Zone as noted above.
