The Ongoing Comprehensive Scarf Thread

[DCU9ted]

Did anyone receive their scarf that they ordered? When are they suppose to be here?

[Colonial717]

From what I understand they are supposed to come in a little after the start of the season. I think they meant the MLS season too, and did not include the CCC because it was done by a Section 8 guy. But I don't really know, that is just when I was expecting mine.

The thread about the original order has more info. But yes, don't expect them until after the MLS season starts, or thereabouts.

But... but... I'm cold now.

Shouldn't this be about scarves, and not scarfs?

[elconejito]

nonono, scarfs is correct. Just like its the Smurfs and not Smurves...

god

grammar crusade anyone?

There was a manufacturing holdup in Poland after the first two designs were made so basically any chance of them getting to Chicago before the season begins is over. They are all coming together from Poland when finished, we're not going to ship some now and some later.

Some of our Chicago orders are similarly backlogged so it's not just you guys.

That said, the time line is still pretty concurrent with what was estimated when we started taking orders.

Again, thanks for setting this up. I know a handful of jerks complained to you (not this thread, BTW), but most of us truly appreciate this.

And we don't need the Throw The Metro Down The Well scarf until well into the season!

I love that scarf design!

FYI 2 designs are completed and enroute to the US. Pretty sure it's the Simple Scarf and DC Flag v1 designs.

I am pretty sure the manufacturing holdup has been corrected and the second two designs should not be long in coming. Third set (the DC Flag v2 design) is still a ways off (I would estimate late April/early May).

Photos will be provided as soon as I have hands on them.

Again, I know it's a long wait but it's the reality of dealing with global manufacturing; and this is high-quality stuff (as anyone who has seen what we offer in the S8C store (http://www.section8chicago.com) can attest).

Great news, Boyzzz! Thanks for keeping us posted. We're all excited to see the final product! If you would, please give us another post at the time that you repackage and ship out individual orders so we all know when to start watching the mail.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Boyzzz Murtaugh again.


Thanks again for doing this for us.
