MONDOTEES VESTS WILL SHIP ON MARCH 1ST!

[alexfugazi]

Just heard from our people, the Mondotees vests will be here on March 1st.  That gives you guys one week from now to take advantage of the discounted pre-sell price!  It's currently the cheapest priced vest out there at $125, and will jump to $150 once it's in-hand! Thanks to everyone who has already pre-ordered, and all of you who will!

hey Tim,

Believe me, I'm SO close yet still on the fence. The price is awesome but I'd really like to see some pix of the actual product in natural room light. The pix here look way too studio and polished. And also make the vest look too light in color in my opinion. And maybe it's the mannequin torso but the Rocker just looks like it's positioned too high up.
Can you extend the deal just until we see some real pix of the actual vests and not just the tweaked prototype pix?

thanks    d

Wish I could get an order in before they go up to $150, but I just can't hack it right, as I am saving up for a new guitar and a new amp.

I gotta second Dave's comments. The rocker being so high up is probaly my main problem and sure wish that could be changed or at least see what it looks like in a few more pics. I figure Warlordswan's die job would take care of the color if need be (would darken up the diamonds anyway).

Guess we can't see em'.
Oh well....

Hey, sorry I'm just getting back to you guys.  I can't actually take photos of the other sizes until I have them in hand on the 28th...I'll post more when I can. 

I will tell you, though, the photos of the vest above were taken in my living room, with natural light coming in from the front window, and florescent light overhead.  They definitely aren't 'studio' shots.  I just cropped out all the crap that's in my house, and dropped in a blue background. 

I'll have more photos later.

the extra detail on the pockets to make them more movie acurate are great.

[alexfugazi]

Thanks G-father!  As of yet, we're still the only manufacturer of the vest to get the triangle pockets right.

[Dave Mack]

pretty quiet in here. Thought this place would be lit up....

[alexfugazi]

So...funny thing.
The vests that were SUPPOSED to be in-hand on the 28th got pushed back to the 8th.  Looks like they got held up in customs in California.  Apparently, they wanted to make sure it wasn't some kind of big gang-related thing ::)

Which, it is KINDA gang reltated...but in a purely fictional way.  Either way, the guys in shipping say we'll have them on the 8th.  Sale extended until then.

Apologies.

Over here in LA the mayor has been getting tough on gangs.  Although, how and why did customs find out what you were shipping.  Did they open the boxes?  Are u shipping from Mexico? If so I understand cuz now the border is tougher to get through because of 911, although it took several years for the government to do this.

[alexfugazi]

I think it was just a random check...I really don't know.  I'm not even sure if they're in LA...all I know is that they AREN'T IN MY EAGER HANDS! 

So...so close.

[Dave Mack]

bet there's a bunch of customs agents running around with these on!

[alexfugazi]

Yikes...long day.
So all vest showed up safe and sound.  And, everything shipped out today.  Please let me know when you guys get 'em in, and post here giving us your opinions!
Thanks-
Tim
