SRP Jacket Order Extension!!! Please Read If You Ordered A Jacket. or You Wanted too!
THERE ARE SOME LAST MINUTE CHANGES BEING MADE TO THE LOGO AS DESCRIBED BELOW:
Ok, I was looking at the logo sample today and decided I wasnt really happy with it. I called Cabela's and asked why this logo doesnt look like a carbon copy of our logo, with the spacing and font of the letters, the gradiant look of the razor blade, and a few other details. I also asked that the the web address be changed to silver to match the lettering so it would actually look like part of the logo and would show up better on the dark olive colored jackets since black may be hard to see. I originally suggested that the web address be gold, but the artist said that she thought it would be an overkill on gold and silver would really accent the logo better, so unless a number of people who orderd a jacket have complaints the web address will be silver
Cabela's said there was no exuse as to why their sample didnt look exactly in every way like the logo on our website, and they are putting a rush on everything, so I should have a new physical sample by early next week. This sample will be an exact duplicate of our website logo, without any alterations to style, color or design. I also had our initial account rep removed from our account because I have not been satisfied with her. I am now dealing with a much better rep. who has assured me she will reduce our production timeline and place us at the top of her list, seeing as our last rep was a bit slow
This means that I will open up the order form again, and and you may order jackets until I get the sample back and approve it. This also means that I will close the order form sometime next week as soon as I have an acceptable logo in hand, so I cant give you an exact date, but plan on monday or tuesday.
I am sorry for the inconvenience guys, but I just refuse to accept anything less than perfect. There is no reason that you should look down at your jacket and be able to tell any differences from the logo on our website. I do not anticipate any delay on the dilvery time of the jackets since there is now a rush on the order.
And for those of you wonder, NO I am not doing this so I can figure out a way that I can buy a jacket without my wife being mad at me...although since I have the extra time, I will be trying to figure out something lol.
So I know I said it couldnt happen under any circumstances, but...what can I say...its good to be king lol. If you wanted to order a jacket and didnt, now is your chance!!! and here is the link to the order form: http://forms3.createforms.com/49277/form_1_1.html
Please contact me with any questions, concerns, or if you want to whine about the timeline...but if you didnt order a jacket, no whining will be entertained

I spoke with Cabela's today and they will get me a revised sample via email buy Monday, once approved they will ship me a physical sample again. I would prefer just the physical sample now that they have me comments and suggested changes, but unfortunately they require me to sign off on the art first, which will require more time. I hope to have a physical sample in my hands by the end of next week, I will keep you all posted.
I have all your money sitting safely and securely in my Paypal account, which I am not using for anything other than a holding area for jacket funds. If any of you would prefer, I can refund your money until you have seen the updated art as long as you repay the required funds within 24 hours after the art is posted. However, you will incur the same 2.9% + $0.30 fee for the additional transaction, and if I do not have your payment when the time comes, the order will be placed without your jacket. Sorry to be such a hardass about it, but this has already longer than I had expeced, and I dont want to hold the process up further.

Update
We got all the problems sorted out last week and a new sample is on its way to me this week. The hold up is because we do not have and EPS art for the SRP logo, so when the emobroidery team needs to change anything they literally need to redraw it pixel by pixel, which takes quite a while. I am determined to get these to you by christmas...Im working hard on it, so dont think Im ignoring you!
I will let you know as soon as the jackets will ship.
