Don't worry so much. This thread just states that you may have more of a wait than you are originally quoted but to be honest this can occur with anyone for anything. For instance, at work my department last year had 8 people, now there's 5 of us so there is no way we can complete everything to the same standard in the same amount of time. Instead we take longer but work to an even higher standard as standing still just isn't good enough.
I don't believe it is harsh to mention how long people have waited for our vendors to deliver as it lets us all know what we're getting in to. At the same time my rule of thumb is don't order something you can't wait 6 months for as real life must come first for everyone. If we can all understand those last two sentences then we can create a situation that is fair on both the vendors and the consumers too.
Now I would be worried if there were threads saying the quality was poor but there aren't. We all have our preferences but if they're in the Base Exchange you will get your stuff and it will be well made. In the past other situations have occured which have delayed some of these vendors for a long time but they came through and they will again. The fact we're number 5 on the 501st list is testament to this. I understand your apprehension and frustration but good things come to those who wait.
Kram, I apologise for pooping on your thread. Nice armour by the way.
And yeah, we're way easier than clones. The reason why you can't see that thread is because it's in the Ace of Aces section which is 501st only but I'm sure someone will move it soon.
