Jazznow Report post Posted January 1, 2014 Hi all At the top of the page is an advertisement for http://www.shoemakingcoursesonline.com Did anyone already register there? Would be nice to have some opinions about them and I would need some additional Informations before registering. I want to know if there is a possibility to ask if there is anything not explained well. An information about how to cancel subscription would be great too. The website doesn't even have a contact email so I'm wondering if this is just a way to pull money out of my pocket or not Happy new year everyone Jonathan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jazznow Report post Posted January 1, 2014 Update: found an email by checking out at the store and wrote her. She replied very fast. Fr anyone who is interested too here are her answers: Canceling membership is possibl at anytime. Until you cancel there will be an monthly payment of 30€ (about 40-45$ I think). You have immediate access to all videos that are already updated. If you have questions on the lessons you can ask via an comment system or in a google+ group. I'm still interested in opinions of people who are members there anyway. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
electrathon Report post Posted January 1, 2014 I have not signed up yet but am going to. The site looks very basic/start up but I am very interested in the information. Aaron Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sveta Kletina Report post Posted January 2, 2014 Hi, I had to jump in My name is Sveta Kletina and I'm the owner of www.shoemakingcoursesonline.com, I think I have already answered the questions, but if there are more, I'm here! I don't sell many types of lasts on the platform, they are more for educational purpose, just to make easy on the online search for the members. P.S You can find the contact page on my site top bar.

medsar Report post Posted January 25, 2014 is there a lot of demand for shoemaking/bespoke lasts in the US? I'd like y'all's opinion before I spend the huge amount of time doing to a market assessment Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
electrathon Report post Posted January 25, 2014 I can tell you that they are increadibly difficult to buy. I look all the time, the supplies are limited. As to demand, I can not answer that. All shoemaking supplies are not readily available. I have assumed it was due to the lack of people actually doing shoe construction. Aaron Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jbird Report post Posted January 26, 2014 I can also say after mightily searching lasts are very very very tough to find! no idea about the demand Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
